This is the kind of loose painting I get happy about.  Accurate drawing is important, but less than perfect paint application is my goal.

Pomegranate In Winter

 


Pomegranate In Winter  oil 10x10 inches

In late fall this young pomegranate tree in our backyard glows with the most beautiful yellows, golds and greens.   On a warm day in December I set up my paints outside and enjoyed capturing the glow.

Lemon & Limes

 


Lemon & Limes oil 10x10 inches
Purchase info is here.

This is our napkin basket of old.  Remember the days of basket parties?  I very much enjoy conveying  the weave of natural materials without using a teeny tiny paintbrush to make an exact representation.  My goal is to say "basket" in a painterly way, not a photographic way.
