Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, Autumn Landscape, Daily Art, "Tree on Fire", 8x10x1.5" Oil
This time of the year, the mountains are where I want to be. This year, I have been very lucky to spend two months here.
I was inspired to paint this one from the ever evolving show I see each day. It brings back childhood memories of northern Ohio and Michigan.....minus the mountains, of course.
What more could I ask for? It gets better and better each day. Of course, in the mountains it seems the color is climbing to the sky.
One evening we spied a herd of Elk in the meadow. You can hear them bellowing in the woods this time of year.They come down to the meadows to feed at dusk and dawn.. This herd was one make and about 30 females.
As much as I love it here I will be ready to head south to Florida in the next few days. When the trees are stripped bare, and the cold winds are blowing, I will be enjoying the beautiful beaches. Life is good!
Thanks for visiting my blog today.

Horse Portrait, "Big Red" 6x8" Oil, SOLD
I have been trying to expand my horizons by painting new subject matter. This is my second horse painting.
I have to say I did enjoy the challenge. He looked so spirited and I got excited about his red coat against a green background.
It's always fun to stretch a little, try something new. I would like to do more of these, but I think my biggest challenge will be getting interesting reference images to work from. We have plenty of horses in our neighborhood, but they usually run to the other end of the pasture when they see me approach with my trusty camera.
Do you have any special techniques for getting images of animals?

Pansy Painting, Flower Painting, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, "Perky Pansies" by Carol Schiff, 6x8" Oil, SOLD
On a cold January morning a flower painting seems perfect to start the day.
This little piece sold at our group Christmas sale last month. Thank you Helen Wheatly for your purchase and your very kind words.
When I see pansies, one of my favorite flowers, I always remember coming to visit my grandmother. We lived in Ohio and a winter trip to Florida was always welcomed. My grandmother would always have her yard planted with pansies, which are a winter flower in Florida.
Stay warm today....wherever you are!

Tropical Fish Painting, Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting, Coral Reef Series, 9x12x.75" Oil
Celebrating that island feel, mon! There may be pumpkins and falling leaves outside
my door, but I still dream about the tropics!
I have a very difficult time photographing blue and green colors. This painting is a perfect example. The background is a lovely blend of aquas, blues and greens, but I lose that in the image. Does anyone have a solution?
Thanks for viewing my art today!

Sky #3 by NY artist, Celeste Plowden
I learned the art of acrylic and pastel painting through private instruction, after having spent my career as a designer of printed fabrics in the New York market place. I am a graduate of the College of Design, Art and Architecture at the University of Cincinnati, with a major in the History of Art, 1977. Later, I studied printed textile design at Parsons School of Design, in New York. Immediately afterward, I began free lance work for several design studios in the garment district of NYC, where I did re-coloration work for printed apparel fabrics, and sold my own designs through Bread and Butter Designs,also located in New York. In addition, during the 1980's and 1990's, I designed a number of needlecraft and stencil books for Dover Publications. Currently, I am working on a series of exotic birds and other animals done in acrylic paint, with a palette knife, for texture and brilliant color. I consider my paintings to be representational or impressionistic in nature, and I use fantasy colors because what I see often makes me feel these colors,and what would make an interesting composition, rather than using realistic colors.
Small Seascape with Sunrise Painting, Textured Palette Knife Art, 6x8" Oil Seascape
Today I am posting one of my favorite subjects, the beach!
In my opinion, one of the best reasons to live in Florida, is to be able to grab a cup of coffee, and head for the beach to see the sunrise.
The beach is usually empty....maybe I will see a lone fisherman. For the most part, only the birds are there to keep you company. It is so serene and calming. The perfect way to start your day. I cannot think of a better way to spend an early morning hour.
I hope you have a wonderful day today!

Abstract Mixed Media, "All In A Row" 4x12" Original SOLD
I find myself being drawn more and more to the abstract and mixed media area of art. In May I attended a wonderful workshop given by Carol Nelson. She fueled my desire with her creative techniques and materials. Since then, I have been trying to develop my own techniques.
I included some of Carol's techniques and some of my own. I like this piece in both a horizontal format or in a vertical format. The sides are painted and do not require framing.
It can hang on the wall or sit on a shelf. It has just a touch of gold leaf to capture the light.
I have to admit.......I really enjoyed creating this.

Stormy Landscape Painting | Daily Painting | Small Oil Painting | Coastal Collision II by Carol Schiff | 11x14x1.5 Oil
This stormy landscape painting is a scene I see most every afternoon in the summer, here in Florida. The warm breezes blow across the state from the west and collide with the cool ocean breezes from the east. Instant Storm!
I painted this in oil and using a palette knife to capture the feel of impending doom. You know that feeling.....the black clouds suddenly roll in...the temperature drops 10 or 15 degrees in what seems like seconds and the wind kicks in. Time to run for cover!
I painted on 11x14x1.5" canvas and painted the sides black making framing an option.

Mixed Media Painting, Abstract Art, "Gold Rush" by Carol Schiff, 10x10x.75" SOLD
I was feeling the need to get abstract again and wanted to experiment with some gold leaf I had in my bag of tricks.
I have to say I had lots of fun with this piece. I wanted to keep the colors fairly neutral....black, white, gray, rust. I had a piece of watercolor paper that had already been treated with a rusting technique, so the plan was to let some of that background show through. I also wanted to incorporate that gold leaf. I worked with a palette knife to get plenty of texture. All in all, I had a great time! Kind of like making mud patties when you were six....that same feeling. :)

Small Seascape | Daily Painting | Small Oil Painting | Anatomy of a Wave by Carol Schiff | 6x8" Oil Original
This small seascape is a study of a cresting wave. Ask any surfer, it's all about the waves. Waves appear to be all the same, but they are all unique. I am finding that out, more and more as I paint one of my loves ......seascapes.
Hope you enjoyed this little trip to the beach.

BLUE HERON, 11X14, PASTEL, SOLD
This is one of my favorite pastel paintings, done 6-7 years ago. I chased this bird all over the riverside, trying to get the perfect photo. Finally came up with this one! It's not easy being a wildlife artist!
I have free shipping in USA and Canada on 5x7's through Monday. Just go to my Etsy site.
A simple landscape by Joseph Mahon
A simple composition of houses, fields and the sky. I normally do not use medium in my oil painting, other than thinning the paint in the initial stages with odourless mineral spirits (OMS), but in this case I used Neo Megilp with a palette knife to help create a bit of texture. Use the medium thinly. Oil on linen on 9 mm birch panel 6x8 ins.

Farm Landscape | Daily Painting | Mountain Landscape | Valley View by Carol Schiff | 16x20x1.5" Oil
Being in the valley, our mornings in the mountains are often cool and covered with smoke (as in Smoky Mountains). Often by mid-morning the sun burns it off.
This landscape is a nearby farm, one we pass each day. Sometimes there are cows in the pasture or Canadian Geese in the ponds, but it ALWAYS catches my eye.
On this day, the sun was breaking through and the fields were glowing with hay.
We have just returned to Florida after a few wonderful weeks in the mountains of North Carolina. Fall is magical to me, especially in the mountains.
Thanks for reading my blog today.

Paris in the Spring (Eiffel Tower) by Ann McCann 9 X 12 Oil
(c)Ann McCann, "Paris in the Spring," 9 X 12 oil on archival linen panel
I painted this several years ago on a painting trip to France. Although the weather was cool in May, all the trees were blooming. I think the purple one is a jacaranda and the pink is a horse chestnut. What a lovely frame for the Eiffel Tower which is breathtaking itself. Great memories!

So far so good. I painted yesterday but do not have a photo of that yet.
I am flagging today. It might have something to do with be up very early
and going into Nice to clean my holiday apartment and then meeting
people at the airport and not arriving home until lunchtime without
having had any breakfast!
Hopefully I will get a second wind later this afternoon.

Abstract Landscape, Daily Painting, Daily Art, Small Oil Pianting, 6x8" Oil, SOLD
Somedays, girls just want to paint abstract! Today is one of those days!
Sometimes, I just want to play with lots of paint.
Texture is always a large part of my work, especially in abstracts.
When I start an abstract, I usually don't have anything specific if mind.......and I struggle. But, then I get to that sweet spot, where it seems to come together, that's when I get excited.
Although these are all sold, they are all available as giclee prints in the size of your choice. Check it out HERE.
Have a great day....and try something different!
