Colors of Greece by Lisa Elley. 100% Palette Knife Oil Painting

Colors of Greece by Lisa Elley. 2012. 11 x 14. Oil on Canvas.

This painting was so much fun, particularly the stairs.

 Perspective on these old European buildings is challenging,

 as they are falling over with age, nothing is really straight.

The colors also lured me into painting this.

 We are so used to seeing variations of blue from Greece,

 who knew these bright orange & pinks were hiding away there too!

Back in Time by Lisa Elley

Back in Time. 2012. 8 X 10. Oil on Canvas. 100% Palette Knife.

Who doesn't love the rustic charm of Provence?

 With all the history and possibilities, it was fun to

 ponder the lives of the generations of people who
have walked through this door.

Impromptu Pansies by Lisa Elley

Impromptu Pansies. 2012. 8 X 10. Oil on Canvas

With some paint to use up, and an hour uninterrupted,

 I decided to go down the floral route

 and so my "Impromptu Pansies" was borne.

Against All Odds by Lisa Elley

Against All Odds. 2012. 8 X 10. Oil on Canvas. 100% Palette Knife Painting.

This lonesome tree stands in a bay on the shore of Lake Wanaka in New Zealand.

If you google "tree in lake wanaka" you will find many images of this intrepid survivor!

Submerged at certain times of the year, somehow it battles on, providing us with a splendid example of the fortitude of nature! I thought it deserved to be painted.

Milford Sound by Lisa Elley

Milford Sound. 2012. 9 X 12. Oil on Canvas. 100% Palette Knife

Milford Sound was deemed the eight wonder of the world
 by Rudyard Kipling, and is New Zealand's
 most popular tourist destination.

The sheer walls of the fiord rise 3900 ft

 and it is one of the wettest places on earth,

 hence the lush greenery and occasional tree avalanche

 into the cold waters where dolphins, seals,

 penguins and whales can be seen.

With a Drizzle of Rachael Ray by Lisa Elley

With a Drizzle of Rachael Ray. 2012. 11 X 14. Oil On Canvas





I will find any excuse to open a tube of cadmium red,

including but not limited to my Rachael Ray EVOO bottle, which I bought at Target.

The pitcher in complimentary color blue was an eye popping choice to pair with the orange cruet.
