"Shirley's Snowy Stomping Ground" - A Palette Knife Painting by Dottie T Leatherwood

Shirley's Snowy Stomping Ground
14" x 11" oil on canvas
©2011 DottieLeatherwood

---------------------------------------------

This painting was a commission for a Christmas present. It is the home of Shirley, the mother of a friend of mine. It's from a picture taken last year during one of our infrequent snows. Shirley is one of my very favorite people.   I call this her stomping ground because not only is this her home it also houses her business and she rules it all!  A beautiful, plain-spoken, feisty, salt-of the-earth kind of woman. She laughs loud and talks loud. Hugs your neck the first time she meets you. She can do more and work harder than most women half her age. She is larger than life and knows how to live life large. A true gem of a girl!  Merry Christmas, Shirley!

"Muted Hues" aspen oil painting by Niki Gulley


"Muted Hues" ©2011 Niki Gulley
36" x 36" oil on canvas

I paint a lot of bold fall foliage scenes from Colorado and farther north, but I wanted this aspen painting to have a more peaceful feel so I used much softer, more muted color palette to add to that mood.

E-mail Niki Gulley for more information on my birch and aspen tree oil paintings.

Varying Stages Of Undress; Pears by Roxanne Steed



8"x10" oil on gallery wrapped stretched canvas

I have always admired paintings of those 'fancy pears' that come wrapped in elegant paper- like the ones in those fruit gifts that come at Christmas! As luck would have it our mother in law sent us a gorgeous box of pears (& other goodies). I ate one already, but realized I have these beautiful subjects to paint....and quickly as they'll need to be eaten! Pears have such a beautiful sensual form...and these three in varying stages of un-wrap are well- very fascinating to me.

"slight chop on inland waters" - a palette knife painting by Dottie T Leatherwood

slight chop on inland waters
11" x 14" oil on canvas
©2011 DottieLeatherwood
-----------------------------------
Growing up, I heard this phrase "slight chop on inland waters" at the end of every weather forecast on the radio. I'm not sure I even knew what it meant for a very long time. Funny what you remember. When I was a small child and and heard another city's forecast on the radio, I was stunned when it didn't include that line. It never occurred to me that it only applied to the coast. This shrimpboat is heading out to sea with early morning fog and a slight chop on inland waters

"November at Slide Rock", plein air painting, by Kathryn Willis

November at Slide Rock, 12x16" oil on panel, Kathryn Willis

Slide Rock Park in Oak Creek Canyon (north of Sedona, AZ) is one of my favorite places to paint. Much of the year it is overrun with tourists, but since I just live up the mountain about 20 miles, I can pick the best days to go, and be there in 30 minutes. This painting was done on a particularly beautiful fall day a couple of weeks ago. Golden autumn colors, rugged red rocks, a clear canyon creek, deep purple shadows on a warm November morning--what more could a painter ask for?

"Deep in the Woods" - Textured aspen painting by Niki Gulley


“Deep in the Woods” ©2010 Niki Gulley
oil on canvas • 36" x 36"

I am absolutely crazy about aspen trees. I love their textured peeling bark, the sound of their tinkling leaves blowing in the breeze, the way the light illuminates their yellow leaves and makes them glow, and the repetition of the trunks packed so tightly together. The first time I saw them was on a trip with my family to Colorado and I fell in love with the beautiful scenery and peacefulness I found immersed in the forest and surrounded by mountains. I wanted to share my love of nature in “Deep in the Woods” so that you, too, could enjoy that calm and the beauty of the aspens.

ABSTRACT DANCER in ACRYLIC by OLGA WAGNER

This little figurative abstract is part of my "Strength of Women" series...It is also an entry into the Daily Paintworks "Picasso It Challenge". We were challenged to paint in the style of an artist that we admire. I have taken couple of most wonderful workshops with Robert Burridge. He paints from within his heart and he encourages others to do the same. He paints free and with enormous passion - A passion that sometimes eludes me. I think my passion gets lost between laundry and grocery shopping...

My cousin Shelley asked me to paint portraits of her kids as a gift to her husband for their 30th wedding anniversary. I found this frame that had a mat with four cut opening each measuring 3" square so I used that as my inspiration to tie them all together.

nightscape oil painting by BECKY JOY


Neighborhood Nocturne 5x7 oil on canvas panel. Click here to bid starting at $95.
Hi everyone,
I've been remiss on not posting any new small works. I've had a lot of business things to take care of, packing and shipping paintings, phone calls, show apps, etc, etc.  This is a nocturne from my driveway looking down the street. I don't like going out by myself at night to paint unless I'm in a crowded well lit area, so the next best thing is to go stand at the end of my driveway. It works, but there isn't a lot of traffic or change of scenery, but it's good practice anyway.
Yesterday Christine Debrosky and I went out to find cotton fields and to do some plein air painting for our 5 c's project for the Arizona Centennial. It's harvest time right now in the cotton fields. I didn't come away with a finished painting yesterday that I really wanted to keep, but I did get a lot of reference material. Check out the project on our block, 5 c's Painting Project, Arizona Centennial.

Planning to Plant these Pansies by Pamela Blaies

16" x 20"
Oil on Canvas

My daughter's middle school cheerleading team had a fundraiser selling pansies this fall.  I bought a bunch and spent one afternoon in October planting about half of them.  But I'm a little embarrassed to say that I still haven't planted the rest...and it's already December!  But, I put the unplanted ones to good use as props for this still life.  Hopefully my yard will be full of blue and yellow pansies before Christmas.

---------------------------------------
While walking my dog this summer at the beach, I came upon this great scene. An old Ford Starliner from the early sixties (before you get really impressed, I had to google this!) sitting out in front of a beach house. It was mid morning and the sun was lighting the scene like a movie set. The old Ford had definitely seen better days but I got the feeling she still had some spark left in her!

"Climbing Trees IV" - winter birch tree painting by Niki Gulley


“Climbing Trees IV” ©2011 Niki Gulley
40” x 30” oil on canvas

Growing up in the midwest, I loved the first snowfall of the year when everything would get a beautiful dusting of pristine white powder, including even the tiniest of branches in the treetops above. If you caught that moment early enough in the morning before anything had disturbed the intricate frosted web, it was just magical. Then the sun would start rising and peeking through the limbs, and everything would sparkle like diamonds. In Climbing Trees, I wanted to capture that brief beautiful moment when the sunlight dances through the icing on the treetops and you can feel yourself looking up in wonderment just like you did when you were a kid.

E-mail me at Niki@NikiGulley.com for more information on Climbing Trees.
