Tomato and Demitasse - SOLD

More ways to paint a tomato. This is tomato #5. One more to go. I bought a bunch of fabric napkins of different patterns and solid colors that I am using under my still life arrangements. The stripes were fun. I will use them more in the future. The different fabrics add a challenge and interest. I love demitasse cups! No it isn't a giant tomato!

Tomato 2 - SOLD

I decided that I'm going to paint this tomato 6 times. This is painting #2 for the tomato.

More Limes - SOLD

I saw Carol Marine's key limes painting, and I was running out the door to get to my Oil Painting Basics class that I teach every quarter for Community Education. And I needed some Still Life props. I dashed into the grocery on the way to the class, and because of Carol's inspiration, I grabbed a package of the little key limes. Easy to transport to the class... don't bruise easily... lots of them in the package for everyone to have their own limes to paint... and the class loved painting the limes! And so did I.

This painting is available for purchase.
$75 + shipping

Lemon Behind - SOLD

Analgous Colors. I like the way the lemon behind the limes turned out. Mostly because of the edges. These little things (the lemons and limes) are harder to paint than they look. Try it. You'll see.

New Blue Cup - SOLD

The thing I like best about this is the contrast between the light blue cup and the intense red background.

Habaneros - SOLD

I saw these peppers in the grocery, and couldn't resist them because of their intense orange color. The peppers themselves are a work of art.

Iron Teapot - SOLD

This one was fun, I had no idea how it would turn out...

Green Apple Shadow - SOLD

Thinking of blue and green today...

Hood River Valley Road - SOLD

This one is a study for a larger commissioned painting 30 x 30 inches.
