Tropical Landscape Painting | Small Oil Painting | Flower Painting | Daily Painting | Bougainvillea Garden by Carol Schiff \ 6x8" Oil | SOLD
One of the advantages of living in Florida is the profusion of blooming flowers available year round. Bougainvillea is found everywhere in the state in several vibrant colors.
 |
| SOLD |
A native to coastal Brazil, the bougainvillea was discovered in 1768 in Rio de Janeiro by French naturalist Dr. Philibert Commerçon (also sometimes spelled Commerson). The plant is named after his close friend and ship’s admiral Louis-Antoine de Bougainville, who commanded the ship La Boudeuse that sailed around the world between 1766-1769, and in which Commerçon was a passenger.
It certainly speaks to tropical Florida, although it is covered in thorns.
This scene was requested by a client who longs for her memories of a Key West vacation.

Floral Landscape | Small Oil Painting | Daily Painting | Garden Walk by Carol Schiff | 6x8" Original SOLD
I have always had visions of the perfect flower garden in my head and this small oil painting really captures it. A white picket fence, an abundance of flowers, bee's buzzing...something like a Disney garden with no weeds allowed.
When I saw this garden, in front of a charming cottage in North Carolina Blue Ridge Mts., it was like a dream come true. Of course, I had to paint it.
I am not blessed with a green thumb, so this was as close as I could get to my fantasy. I hope you enjoy it!
When I first moved to Florida, I remember going to a plant nursey and the owner said to me "You are in the land of milk and honey, everything grows here." Not true! In the summer, it is so hot, my plants die or struggle to survive. This year we have had so much rain, everything has rotted! Now, Washington State, British Columbia, England....that is where beautiful flowers grow!

Shady Walk oil painting by Marion Hedger
Shady Walk
Oil on box canvas
40x50cm (16x20inch)
We visited Hanbury Gardens in Italy, last summer on a blistering hot day. The gardens didn't have any parking and the only parking was on the street It was a long uphill walk to the entrance. Imagine our delight when we found this beautiful shaded pergola.

Shady Walk

See all my challenge paintings HERE
See all my challenge paintings HERE
This is a scene from Hanbury gardens in Italy. I realised I have given this painting the same title as one I painted two years ago for the 2014 challenge. I shall have to think of a new title.
I have been comparing the two paintings and the older painting is much
warmer. This has made me think of warming up the shadows in today's
painting. What do you think?

Daily Painting, Small Flower Painting, Small Oil Painting, " Picket Fence" by Carol Schiff, 6x12x.75" Oil
Every once in a while I find a small piece of "the way things used to be"........you know what I mean? In the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, we often pass a charming white house, surrounded by a white picket fence. It is obviously the house of a gardner. When I saw it this summer, with a beautiful display of flowers bordering the fence, I asked my husband to stop so that I could hop out of the car and take a photo.
Somebody remind me not to paint with such dark backgrounds! Although, I love the way the painting shows in life, it is impossible to photograph it without glare.
Regardless, I was happy with the painting and thrilled to find this beautiful setting and reminder of the slower, more peaceful life in small town America that I remember from my youth.

Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, Fiddlehead Fern Painting, 11x14x1.5" Oil
A few posts back, I showed you a painting of fiddlehead ferns. I decided to do a companion piece. The original painting had a very dark, some would call it black, background, but on this one I decided to go light,
The background is photographing a little orangey...it is really more of a nice yellow. I wanted it to suggest the sunlight that was pouring in around the ferns.
I am considering one more fiddlehead painting,,,,,a really big one! What do you think?
