Little Beach Bird, Original Oil Painting

I finished the second painting of the bird on the beach.  I like to paint groupings of related subjects and plan to add more to the sea bird list.  Sounds like an excuse to go to the beach and marshes for pics and inspiration.  Hope you like the painting.

Finished Oil Paintings, This Week


Forget Me Nots (Left)
Dogwoods (Right)











Lilacs (Left)
Bluebonnets (Right)












I finished the first three over the weekend and the Bluebonnets last week.  The pictures are good, but there is no comparison to actual paintings on canvas.  Lighting and computer monitors result in a slight color shift.  All four are painted in oils on a gallery wrap 10 x 8 canvas in the portrait format.  The edges are also painted with the same dark green to harmonize the paintings as a group.

The paintings in this post are sold,  Please email me if you are interested in purchasing a painting or having commission work done.  Inquiries and comments are welcomed.  I hope you like the paintings.

God Bless You,

Old Time Pump


Old Time Pump is an original oil painting on a 8 x 10 gallery wrapped canvas with edges painted and ready to hang on somebody's wall.  I used the old antique pump we have in our garden as the model and flowers we saw around a telephone pole at our last show.  Art is so much fun that inspirations can come from anywhere.

After finishing the pump this morning, I started on four new paintings this afternoon.  Hope you like the painting.
