New Paintings by Paula Formanek

A new original "Golden Trio", oil with knife on panel, 20 x 25 cm, part of my "Sunflower Series". I completed this painting quickly with some leftover paint on my last day in Europe. It's now drying in my studio. Soon, I plan to use this to create a large painting.

This is one of my new paintings "Summer Sweet", oil with knife on panel 25 x 30 cm, recently painted en plein air near the Czech Forest.

"Lilacs" by Judy Mackey

Drying on my easel today. 

I hadn't painted large in a long while so it felt good to just go free and paint with tons of paint. This canvas had been toned pink for another painting I had in mind but as I starred at the pink for months, actually, I decided - nope! It has to be a soft yellow/ochre...I think it sets the purples of the flowers really well.
