Deer Feeding, plein air, oil painting
Deer Feeding by Barbara Haviland
Deer Feeding was painted at my cousin's deer ranch near Brady, Texas. Cold but, we were in a deer stand. I had such fun painting this. If you look one deer has only three legs. Amazing to me. Painting is available in
Birds and Wildlife collection

Nocturinal Bayou Serenity, miniature oil painting
#Night, # Bayou, #Study, #oil, #4x6, #BarbaraHaviland.net
Nocturinal Bayou Serenity
The artwork is a landscape painting, executed in a style that captures the mood of a serene natural setting. The color palette is dominated by cool tones, suggesting it might be set either in the early twilight hours or under a shaded canopy near water.
A prominent tree on the left side of the painting, with its dark trunk and foliage, is striking against a background of more muted, blended tones of green and blue, indicating the presence of further vegetation and possibly a body of water. The reflection and subtle ripples on the body of water enhance its sense of tranquility and depth.
On the right side of the canvas, there are swatches of color that give the impression of a painter's palette. These swatches include shades of blue, white, red, and mixes of other colors—possibly serving as a test for the colors used in the painting or as a visual element adding to the overall composition. The presence of these color tests creates a contrast between the artistic process and the finished depiction of the natural scene.

Pink Tulip, ACEO
#Tulip, #ACEO,#flower, #Pink, #BarbaraHaviland.net
The acronym "ACEO" stands for Art Cards, Editions and Originals. They can be original art, print editions or photographs.
The majority of ACEOs are two dimensional, but three dimensional elements may also be incorporated. Pop-ups, books, collages, and sculpture can all be ACEOs as long as they measure 2-1/2" x 3-1/2"!
Lavender ACEO: Four Floral Delights presents a delicate collection of four miniature oil paintings, each capturing the unique character of a single flower set against a softly blended pastel purple background. This series features a Daisies white flower with refined, translucent petals framing a bright yellow center, a Pink Tulip showcasing smooth, rounded petals, a vibrant yellow daffodil with its signature trumpet-like center, and a white calla lily distinguished by its elegant curve and central yellow spadix.
Rendered on compact 3.5 by 2.5-inch canvases, the brushwork emphasizes gentle transitions of color and form, lending each bloom a sense of presence despite the small scale. The subtle layering of hues and careful attention to detail balance precision with softness, inviting viewers to appreciate the distinct beauty inherent in each flower. This set celebrates floral diversity through a cohesive palette and thoughtful composition, making it a refined and intimate study of nature’s delicate artistry.
This is for the Pink Tulip ACEO

Wedding Sunset of Abby and Russell, landscape Barbara Haviland
#Sunset, #wedding, #knife work, #thick juicy paint, #BarbaraHaviland.net
I am excited to unveil my latest artwork, "Wedding Sunset," an 11x14 oil painting on canvas. This piece captures the breathtaking drama of a sunset unfurling in vivid waves of orange, yellow, and purple across the sky. A stark silhouette of a barren tree and a wooden structure, suggestive of a farmhouse or barn, stand in the foreground, creating a striking contrast against the vibrant backdrop. The texture and depth achieved through dynamic brushstrokes bring this sunset scene to life, infusing it with movement and emotion. Inspired by Abby and Russell's wedding, this painting holds a special place in my heart as it reflects a moment of beautiful inspiration during a cherished occasion. I hope "Wedding Sunset" resonates with you and brings a touch of its vibrant intensity into your space. They are Still together!!!
Today is my Mom's Heavenly Birthday!.. I am missing you very much BUT, I will see you again.
