The Good Life - SOLD

The Good Life
Oil, 6" x 6" on museum quality canvas panel.
Sold.
Close-up of palette knife strokes
The Good Life ... that's how I look at it. It's a new year and it's going to be a good one. I can just tell. I am blessed with an amazing family and husband who let me pursue my "late in life" discovered obsession with oil painting. Actually ... I am obsessed with palette knife painting to be a bit more specific.
So ... I know this painting is colorful (probably too much for some of you out there - you know who you are ...) but I am having a great day. So I decided to take the colors to the next level. Why not?
Oh ... and did I forget to mention that Stanford won the Orange Bowl game last night? Smile.

  4. Congratulations on Stanford's win! And on the great color in this painting!!! I zoomed in really close to see if the violet was an undercolor or on top....Beautiful!
    Also noted that on your signature, the "T" is crossed before the stem is made... interesting! Thank you for all your inspiration!
