Three paintings by Paula Formanek

Yesterday I ðŸŽ¨painted🎨 these 'magical' flowers from memory ... from my recent hikes in the Czech Forest ... When I was there, they were in bloom, providing colour and 'energy' in forest clearings ... 'Enchanting Gloves' - oil with knife on canvas, 20 x 26 cm ... Wishing a happy day to everyone! ...


"Enchanting Gloves" by Paula Formanek 

'A field of Passion', oil with knife on panel, 28 x 36 cm ... this is one I started in Europe and recently brought home ... just completed yesterday. My love for poppies goes back to childhood when I ran through the fields and helped my grandmother pick them ... she would dry them and then submit to state pharmacy ...


"A Field of Passion" by Paula Formanek


This one, started several months ago after I came home with some tulips ... itching to get back into a little painting today after down time with the flu ... A WIP, thick oil on panel ðŸŽ¨ ...

Original oil painting Venice Afternoon by Karen Tarlton

Venice Afternoon
12x16
Oil
Listing tomorrow and it's a magical place to go and just watch the world go by.
A cup of coffee or a glass of wine, better yet
and watch the light change on the water
and feel the antiquity.
Lovely.

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!

Colors of Genoa by Lisa Elley. Palette Knife Oil Painting.

Colors of Genoa by Lisa Elley. 2012. 11 X 14. Oil on Canvas. 100% Palette Knife Painting.
Crumbling buildings with incredible colors and textures,
winding steps, ancient doorways steeped in history,
it all comes together so naturally in Italy.

This painting depicts a residential area in the city of Genoa,
 Italy's largest Seaport, and a city renowned for its impressive landmarks,
 art, music, gastronomy, architecture and history.
