Signal Knob

I have painted this view many times. It is the one we see as we look west from our little town. This one, Signal Knob for Cindy, is a 4″ x 12″ acrylic on gallery wrap canvas and was a Christmas gift for a friend who doesn’t live here any longer.

No Time to Paint

Posted in daily painter, tagged fruit, still life on December 28, 2013| Leave a Comment »

No time to paint yesterday as I was traveling. VACATION….finally! WooHoo. Going to enjoy some time off but, of course, when you produce art for a living you still see art and paintings everywhere you look. You just can’t shut it off so this morning I saw this still life in the kitchen. 🙂 Maybe I will paint it.

I am hoping to gather some reference photos today and visit an art exhibit or two. More to come…

Yesterday I played with a mixed media idea. This portrait is done using an actual photograph along with acrylic paint and pen. I think she turned out cute!

Taking a Break – Sort of….

Posted in daily painter, Travel, tagged acrylic, daily painter, daily painting, Hilton Head Marsh, impressionism, Landscape, Virginia Artist on December 1, 2013| Leave a Comment »

I am taking a short break away but it’s hard to go without painting when you are accustomed to painting every day so I am working on a large painting of the local marsh view. It’s nice to change up the subject matter from the mountains, vineyards, and baseball parks I have been painting the last several months. I hope to finish it today so I can share the finished painting tomorrow.
