Daily Painting "Morning Sail" 6x8 Oil Landscape SOLD
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
--Mark Twain
The thing about sailing, is that it looks like a lot more fun than it actually is. I know, I know, that's just my opinion, so please don't get upset! I enjoyed my days on the boat and I still love to spend an afternoon sailing.
Now, when I see a sail boat heading out on a beautiful sunny day, it seems like a little piece of paradise.
The real thing almost never beats out imagination. It's easy to forget the day the sail ripped or the day we sailed home in a raging storm with lightening strikes all around us.
Today, I will imagine....and paint about it.
Happy Birthday to my baby girl, Shelly!

Languid Evening, by New York artist, Celeste Plowden
Warm breezes blow through the palm trees at the edge of the beach, of an
early evening moon rise in the tropics. This impressionist landscape of
Caribbean blue skies and ocean tides, fade to an aqua Florida glade
over the distant waters. Acrylic on canvas, UV varnish, wired and ready
to hang. Painted with a palette knife for a special blending technique. 8x10 available at
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.

Daily Painting, "Going Coconuts", Landscape, 6x8, Oil
This is another of my daily paintings from my trip to Sanibel Island in May.
My daughter and I were getting our exercise, taking a little walk before it was too hot one morning, trying to dodge all the people on bicycles without getting hit, when I saw this palm loaded with coconuts.
We live in Florida and see lots of palm trees, but our area is further north and coconut palms are not as common there. There is a lot going on under those palms, all kinds of fibers hanging, old dried up fronds and other miscellaneous materials and of course, the coconuts. It almost has an abstract quality.
Enjoy!

Fall Foliage Original Oil Painting by Karen Balon
 |
| Fall Foliage 6"x6" oil on board palette knife painting For a Larger View, Click Here |
Looking
back on painting these
Palm Trees
in non-traditional colors
I think my New England heritage
was making an appearance.
Though I may be living in the desert
these days my heart
will always be in New England
in the Fall.
So I guess it was only natural
for me to combine
my fascination with the Palm Trees of my current surroundings
with my love for the colors of
New England in the fall.
Karen is an intuitive artist with an innate connection to the universe. Turning mediative visions into mesmerizing paintings.
Using only a palette knife and bold colors Karen’s painting are intended to draw you in and caressing you like a lover. Sensual and tantalizing, whimsical and teasing, with curves that ebb and flow. Her pieces have been described as cosmic, relaxing yet full of energy, intuitive, erotic, fantasy, peaceful, organic and come from deep within her. You can feel her interconnectedness to the universe, she captivates you with her use of emotion, color and swirling tendrils that are a big part of her and her artwork.
Karen’s goal is for the viewer to find their own unique interpretation in her paintings. To let the imagination run free for a while and connect with their inner most feelings.

Riviera Garden by Jeannette Johnston
Oil on Gallery Wrapped Canvas
24" x 20" / 12F
SOLD
If you click on the 'My Painting Technique' link from the home page you can see the painting in progress.
This painting is of one of the neatly landscaped gardens of the many luxurious villas on the Cote d' Azur. Pink and purple bougainvillea, roses, scented honeysuckle and jasmine all flourish in the hot climate. Orange and lemon trees, eucalyptus, and the occasional site and sound of green parakeets flying between palm tress add to the tropical feeling.
