Crisp White Peonies
"Crisp White Peonies"
oil, 8x10
Sold
Sold
Painting flowers brings a joy in my life. They are so
beautiful and so many to choose from. Before picking any out,
I examine them carefully to see which one strikes me the most.
It's hard because there are so many choices.
God brings so much beauty in our lives and it's all
around us.

The Lemon
"The Lemon"
oil, 8x10
Set this still life up and painted it from life. My son made this beautiful
bowl in his pottery class. He did so well with pottery but
never pursued it, he was more into sports. I was drawn to the
lemon casting a striking reflection on the table and on the bowl.

"Cow in the Meadow"
"Cow in the Meadow"
oil, 8x8
Sold
On a trip to California we stopped off at Duncan Mills. There
were cows grazing in the meadow, got a few photos shots of
them. They don't seem to be shy at having their pictures
taken. This one here seemed to love it.

Teacup and Comfort
"Teacup and Comfort"
oil, 8x10
I set this still life up and painted it from life. My sister-in-law gave me
this beautiful teacup along with many more that I plan on painting.
I used the plant to add direction with the leaves to encircle the teacup
leading to the book. The teacups shadow also keeps it in the circle. The plant
and book seem to be comforting the teacup just like those
that love you.

"Vintage Iron"
Vintage Iron
oil, 8x10"
My brother gave me this Sunbeam iron that was from the 50's.
He is a collector of antiques and vintage stuff, which I am
also fond of. I am sure it still works, haven't tried it yet,
just caught my attention to paint it. I love the shiny metal, black
handle and old cord.
Yesterday is gone but memories still exist.

The White Dress
"The White Dress"
oil 8x10
Sold
Sold
I had my eye on this old vintage iron that my brother had and
was kind enough to give it to me so I could put it in a
painting. I like to make up a theme in my mind, like I was
actually there. I pictured this old house and the mother
had just ironed her daughters cute white dress.

Relax
"Relax"
oil 8x10
It's OK to take time to relax. There are times when
my mind is consumed with matters that really don't matter.
I am just passing through this beautiful life that God has
given me. What shall I do with it? I will see beyond the reality of
this world and look at God's reality.
