11″ X 14″ oil on canvas
SOLD
It’s been so long since I posted, so I just thought I’d add a recent painting. These were dahlias from my flower garden that I placed in my latte art pitcher, because I wanted to paint a reflection. 🙂
Day 30 ~ Behind the Glass
8″ x 8″ oil on canvas
I took a photo of this cute little guy when we were at our favorite Guthrie coffee shop Hoboken. Don’t look too close, but I just noticed a lion face on the hood of his sweatshirt. I’ll have to change that… 🙂
This is the last day of the challenge and honestly I can’t believe I made it. I don’t want to whine on here, but just to say I went through several days of excruciating middle back pain. My shoulder has been hurting intensely where it was hit by a car years ago… to the point where I had to hold my arm up to paint at times. My husband has had a terrible tooth abscess, my daughter has been sick for a week with chills, fever and headaches… It has been a difficult month. On the brighter side we are all recovering and feeling a whole lot better. 🙂
Day 29 ~ Cello Love
Day 28 ~ Saddle Up
Day 27 ~ Farmer’s Market Flowers
Tried to be loose on this one, but perhaps it ended up being too detailed. I think I’m going to try a deeper turquoise in the background to brighten it up a bit. Not the greatest photo as I took it with my phone.
Day 26 ~ Sawtooth, Mt. Evans, Colorado
I need to do some fine tuning on this one tomorrow after it dries a bit. Sawtooth ridge is often hiked by climbers to go from Mt. Evans to Mt. Bierstadt. Both mountains are 14ers. Looks pretty scary to me, but my climber son has done it.
Days 23 – 25 ~ Sunset on the Prairie
I worked on this commission for these last few days so I’m counting it for three days… Nice we can make up our own rules… 🙂
I have a tad more work to do on the sky… This is an 18″ diameter painting that my client wanted to fit in a frame that she had. She gave me a photo of what she wanted. The colors in this photo are not quite right, but you get the idea.
Day 18 ~ The Goldfish
Just joking about the title… 🙂 I’m so tired and brain numb that I asked my daughter what I should call this painting and she said I should paint a goldfish in the bowl…
18″ x 24″ oil on panel
I don’t know why I start such a big project on a daily painting challenge… but I’m not quite finished with this one… No goldfish though… 🙂
Day 17 ~ Color Study
This is a color study I did for a commissioned painting I will be working on soon. The real painting will be on an 18″ circled panel.
10″ x 10″ oil on canvas
Day 16 ~ A Little Bit of Fall
There are already leaves turning color and falling off the trees and I harvested three pumpkins from my garden. This is what inspired this little fall mini today, plus sunflowers from the Farmer’s Market…
