Hula Hut Lights, New Contemporary Landscape Painting by Sheri Jones

Hula Hut Lights
12x16 oil on canvas

We were in Austin recently and visited this restaurant. It was located on the lake and had the palm trees lite up like Christmas.  The colors and reflections were hard for me to resist. 
Working with the darker colors made the trees pop with color.  
This is available for purchase.  $400.00

No 96 Early Sunflowers, Flower Paintings by Texas Artist Laurie Pace



No 96 Early Sunflowers 
  ©+Laurie Pace       Graphics One Design 2014

 Size:9 x 12  Oil on Canvas. Sold


Has to be one of my favorite paintings. Began with a solid black canvas... acrylic so it dried quickly. Then I sketched out my sunflowers randomly in white chalk and then went straight to my oil paints creating this dynamic sunflower painting. Small but powerful, it is sold, but again something to draw inspiration from. If you are a beginning artist I highly recommend this approach with trial and error. Black acrylic covers the canvas and then build your painting on top of it.  I shared a lesson last year on pumpkins on my website, starting in black and moving forward.


May your unfailing love come to me, Lord,
    your salvation, according to your promise; Psalm 119:41

California Dreaming Hydrangeas and a San Diego Worskhop - Flower Paintings by Nancy Medina

http://nancymedina.fineartstudioonline.com/workszoom/1526915

California Dreaming  Hydrangeas & Roses
by Nancy Medina
20 X 16
Oil on Archival Panel

Class Demonstration

My new hydrangea DVD



California Dreaming was the first of three demonstrations in my San Diego workshop this weekend with a very talented group of ladies from around the US. What a treat to make new friends every time I teach a class here in historic Balboa Park.

In addition to acquiring quite a few fresh flowers here in the land of sunshine, I couldn't resist splurging on some new vases. A girl's gotta have her bling! How I'll get these lovely ceramics home to Texas is a concern for another day, because today (and tomorrow) we make flowers bloom in brilliant color! Stay tuned for more pictures to come....!

Peaceful by Kay Wyne


Peaceful
Contemporary Landscape Painting
12" x 16" Oil on Canvas
This painting went through some difficult stages before I decided it was complete.  Actually, the canvas was larger, and I cut the canvas down after I had finished painting.  I normally don't do that, but I felt that the composition worked better without so much canvas.  I believe it was originally an 18" x 18".  I used a palette knife all the way on this one...there is texture and depth in the landscape.  The skies are soft and whispy.


This painting is back from the framers and is ready to hang...
Contact Kay for purchasing information on this painting.  Thanks for looking...Kay

Daily Painting | Small Oil Painting | Tropical Landscape Painting | Island House by Carol Schiff | 6x8" Oil

When I was a little girl, growing up in the corn fields of Ohio, I dreamed of palm trees and the sea.  When I first saw the ocean, when I was nine years old,  I knew I would live there.

This daily painting of a tropical landscape, made me wonder how many other little girls have that same dream.  Ocean breezes and balmy breezes are powerful thoughts when you are shoveling snow, day after day, in sub-zero weather.

 This little house is in the Bahama's.  A blooming Poinciana tree  brightens the landscape.  The nice thing about dreams.....sometimes they do come true!



Thanks for viewing my blog today....and keep on dreaming!

"The Arches of Utah Beckon" by Karla Nolan





I love the red earth and blue skies of the West.  The U.S has so many varied regions in it but the wide open skies and the ruddy orange and vermillion tones of  Terra Firma speak to my memories.  I hope we go back to Utah soon and see the Arches, Capitol Reef, Zion and so on................

Hints of Picasso, Floral Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace



Hints of Picasso
  ©+Laurie Pace       Graphics One Design 2014

 Size:18 x 24  Oil on Canvas.SOLD


This is an older painting reposted but looking at it makes me want to paint something similar. This may inspire a painting this weekend.  The approach to the canvas on this floral painting was to create the background with layers of rubbed acrylic paint and then to block out the vase and flowers on top of the rubbed acrylic. The top painting is in oil and the finish is incredible as a mixed media painting.

Teach me, Lord, the way of your decrees,
    that I may follow it to the end. Psalm 119:33

"Flowers by the Way" by Janice Tingum

Flowers by the Way
by Janice Tingum
Acrylic on Cradled Panel
4" x 4" x 0.875"



A colorful array of flowers line this garden path. The panel is a nice smooth surface for palette knife painting and the square format is perfect for this small composition. The edges of the cradled panel are painted white. This impressionistic piece is varnished and can be displayed on a table top, on an easel, or on the wall.

Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting, Flower Painting, Floral Still Life "Hydrangea and Goldenrod" 8x6" SOLD

Another of my "chunky" floral still life.  The idea on these is to keep detail to a minimum with color, brushstrokes and shape catching you eye.

SOLD


I quickly sketched in very basic shapes, not being fussy but trying to capture enough of the flower shape to be recognizable.  I massed in dark under colors and then worked a little with local color.  Of course, I  pumped it up.




I worked with big strokes and lots of paint.

Thank you for viewing my art today.

"Peonies in the Yard" Original Oil Painting by Hallie Kohn Art

We have two varieties of peonies which have the most beautiful and fragrant blossoms. Although they are full of ants, I can never resist clipping some to bring in the house. They last quite a while in water and definitely bring the summer in.

Took this photo in our yard and thought it had great light.

"At the Panda Preserve" Original Oil Palette Knife Painting by Hallie Kohn Art

My husband recently returned from two weeks in China where he performed and took part in many "Building Bridges" activities with other countries. He was part of a group of people who went with the school district to learn and share different teaching methods with each other. While traveling around, some of the group, including my husband, were lucky enough to travel to the panda preserve and learn about caring for these beautiful animals.

At the Ocean Beach painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace



At the Ocean 
  ©+Laurie Pace       Graphics One Design 2014

 Size:24 x 36  Oil on Canvas.  SOLD


The little one on the beach was painted several years ago. I like the full sunlight of this painting of child on the beach.  I love the simplicity of the waves and the pure softness of the sand.

High Fashion at the Beach by Sally Shisler


High Fashion at the Beach - 201436  
4x4" Oil on Board
So refreshing to let loose with a bristle brush these past few weeks.  No worries - the palette knives are still by my side.  I have learned so much over the years while using only knives and can begin to see how this is translating suitably into my brush work.  Perhaps in my own mind... I almost titled this piece Hot Spots because I've used a lot of bright red to define my layout with the joints of the figures as connecting points in the design.  If the joints are placed reasonably close to their proper anatomical location, you are pretty much home free.  From here, I am seeing that it matters little how the strokes travel through the rest of the painting - particularly from the extremities (arms & legs).  I love the lyrical quality of the bristle brushes; they create lines much like a calligraphic signature.

Bottle Still Life | Small Oil Painting | Daily Painting Beach Treasure by Carol Schiff | 8x10 Oil | SOLD

This was the result of a request from a client.  The client's friend found this crusty old bottle in the surf of the Virgin Islands.  She wanted to surprise him with a gift and thought a little painting of a special day would be perfect.

SOLD
I panted from a photo she supplied.  The main challenge was to achieve the crusty appearance of the bottle.

Both the client and her friend were happy with the results.

Well, I must say that as much as I love poppies, they can be a pain in the you know what to paint -- especially salmon colored gems!  However, I feel I did a decent job with this one, inspired by the neighbor from across the street and her garden!  A challenge, ad that is actually a good thing!

Mesmerized, Small child on beach watching the Sunset, Contemporary Fine Art Beach Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace



Mesmerized
  ©+Laurie Pace       Graphics One Design 2014

 Size:18 x 24  Oil on Canvas.


The colors started out a bit differently but as I grew the layers in the sky I felt the strength in the water as it evolved and the waves lapped on the beach... the wind quieting down at sunset. This would have to be the Atlantic Ocean with the sunset and probably further north on the east coast. So much for my input!  Young child watching the sunset at the beach painting. Details below:




I will hasten and not delay to obey your commands.
