I
had this photo I took of an orange tree, it was pretty uninspiring, the
printer is running out of ink for one thing so I made the photo black
and white. I was looking through a magazine, saw someone's painting of
some arum lilies, I loved the colors in their painting!
So
I tried matching up their colors to my painting and this was the
result. I had fun, hadn't done that before. The painting is 8 x 10
inches, oil on masonite, $200.

Daily Painting 1432 Ripe for the Picking! Florida Orange tree oil painting
I was born in Ft. Pierce and lived there all my life. I have an Associate in Art degree from the Indian River Community College in Fort Pierce. I consider myself primarily self taught.
I am a member of Plein Air Florida, and the leader of Plein Air Painters of the Treasure Coast. My paintings are in art collections worldwide.
I have co-published an article in Plein Air Magazine.
I have contributed paintings to Art for Nature, Heathcote Botanical Gardens, Habitat for Humanity and various other charities.
I love painting outside using the painting knife. I love the rich texture and lustrous effects I can get with the knife.
My studio is located in my home on Indian River Drive in Fort Pierce. I use both of my names in my art, Lori McNamara and Lenore McNamara.
