Wednesday Musings

I'm trying to avoid looking out the window as we have snow - again. Yes I do live in Canada but it doesn't mean I have to like snow in March (not that it's my favourite any other month either). 


Here is a painting I did over the weekend "Early Morning Light". Every time I take a front photograph it seems to come up grey in the background but as you can see above, it's actually blue. It's a little misleading. Partly it has to do with the winter light and maybe a little about how my eyes aren't what they used to be.

Here are "Bouquet" and "Petals" sitting here. I like to show photos of them on a flat surface so you can see the 3-D effect as well as the size when placed against something familiar. In this case, each other. Again showing one photo doesn't give a painting justice, especially oil paintings which seem to  come alive in their own way.

Spring Rhythm

This is another one of my faves! It's a softer Spring piece but there is something almost musical about the flow throughout. The yellow flowers were trimmed from my rosebush out in the front yard. The rest of the arrangement came from Creekview Floral, who do amazing bouquets and arrangements.  "Spring Rhythm" 12 x 16 oil on canvas This one needs a new home!  

Color!

Did someone say they wanted a painting with color? HOT Pink! available as original or as a Print!  

Iris (19-14)

Another iris for the collection. This is a part of the spring collection that I am working on. I kept the background simple so the focus was on the main attraction, the bloom. The purple is a deep variation of colour and the top of the bloom is a gauzy white.  This artwork could work in any room. It's small size allows for it to be a part of a larger compilation or in smaller spaces such as hallways, kitchen, or bathrooms. Iris (19-14) 6" by 6" oil on canvas board Click to buy with Paypal
