Palette Knife Painters, International

Check out My New Video Here!

Pink Larkspur Daisy Duet is the newest daily painting in the studio today. I felt just a bit like I was cheating, since I was painting instead of working on tags and inventory sheets for my show at the Dallas Arboretum April 26-27. All the paintings are stacked neatly into categories, leaning against walls and furniture throughout my house, hither and yon. I did take a bit of a break earlier today, the hubby and I went to World Market and got a few new adirondack chairs - check out my art blog today to see what the color Baltic Blue looks like! I got the impression Howard Pee Pugpants approved of the new chair, although I cannot say for certain, since I don't speak Pug....

We painted bougainvillea and daisies in my Fort Lauderdale, Florida workshop this morning. What fun to paint with ladies from Utah, Canada, New Hampshire, Minnesota and across Florida today. We did not spot any gators, but we did see plenty of flowers blooming! It's always good to paint with palm trees swaying outside the classroom window, don't you agree? Get your beach shoes on, strum your ukelele, and stay tuned to my art bloggy, I'll be sharing even more pictures from sunny Florida with you this weekend!

A peek at the studio models!

Petal Pinpoint Daisies is the newest daily work in Flower Mound Studio and we're celebrating! I'm excited to announce my new workshop August 1-3, in sunny San Diego, California. After a long, icy, chilly winter in North Texas, I'm ready to wiggle my toes in the sand and paint California flowers 'til the cows come home. I'll be taking my students on a tour of some of my favorite flower gardens on Coronado Island in the evenings and class is open for beginners as well as advanced painters in oils, acrylics and water based oils. I sure hope to see you there!

Daisy Dance and Justification for Yet Another New Vase by Nancy Medina

Daisy Dance

Oil on Archival Panel

Daisy Dance is the newest painting in Flower Mound Studio, a bit of riotous color and movement to shake things up and get the blood stirring on a chilly wintry day. I start flagging a bit around 5 pm-ish and treat myself to a chocolate mocha coffee lest I find myself slipping into pug-type habits such as afternoon naps and only getting out of bed for treats.

Today I took not one but two trips to our new market in town for fresh flowers, and came home with a bundle of fresh pink peonies, more delphiniums, and a handful of pink roses I just could not resist. Oh yes, and another new vase. In my own defense, I did break one of my favorite vases yesterday, so felt justified in bringing another one home to join my growing collection. I'm sure at this point I am in violation of a city ordinance restricting a household to ownership of no more than 250 vases or four metric tons of glassware at a time.
