Port, Pom, Persimmon

8"x8" | oil on archival panel
I love the way this one came together. If you are a Port lover, the port bottle in this painting, has a handstamped label! And I feel like I captured it, on this painting. It's a lovely bottle (in real life) so green, and the hand stamping is so interesting.

This painting is larger than my normal "daily painting" size - it is 8"x8" unframed.

Green Plate and Pom - sold

6"x6" :: oil on archival Wallis Sanded Paper

This painting is different from my others because it was painted on Wallis Sanded Archival Paper. The paper is nice, it really grabs the paint differently than a board. If you purchase it, I can attach it with archival glue to a birch board.

Note to all - Feedburner/Google has been sending out a weird version of my blog posts, randomly. I am trying to get it to stop, I don't know what is causing it, but I'm trying to get it fixed. It may take a while, so please, just delete the weird extra email it sends out, until I can get this fixed. I may have to change email services to something like Mad Mimi or something else… Mad Mimi has good customer service, so at least I would be able to get email problems fixed, plus they have some nice templates. Thank you for your patience!
