Sunset Over Bridge, miniature

Small oil painting of a Sunset over the Bridge is one of my demos. The size of this painting is 5"x5" and the painting is signed for you.

You can get prints in a bigger size.  I believe I took the photo of the bridge in Florida.

Port Ponchartrain Lighthouse

Port Ponchartrain lighthouse was used in New Orleans, La  many years ago.  It is now a site to see there.  My painting measures 16"x8" and is signed and not framed.   It reminded me of flower pots upside down.  What do you think?

111 Pilgrims Barn, landscape in oils

#111 Pilgrims Barn, landscape in oils

#111 Pilgrim's Barn is  our latest study painting in oils and I am really learning how to put the masses down and go from there. 

I love this technique and  will continue to use it more.  My canvas panels are well made and light weight.  My husband uses louan and we paint the back and adhere canvas to the front and sides.

                                                     I love the colors used, Purples, browns, gr

eens,and yellows. and a little red +  white.  9"x12" canvas panel

Daily Pink Rose oil painting, miniature

Pink Rose Daily painting

The artwork is a painting of a single rose with a deep  pinks and whites hue. The rose is depicted at a stage where the blossom is partially opened, showcasing some interior petal layers as well as the outer petals curving outward. The rose's stem and several green leaves are visible embodying the flower's delicate nature. The coloration suggests light playing across the petals at the edges, giving the flower a vibrant and somewhat velvety texture. An emphasis on contrasting shades creates a sense of depth, with the darker background making the rose stand prominently as the focal point of the composition.

Small miniature pink rose is one of my daily paintings.  Signed and not framed
