Best Buddies - SOLD

Pin It
"Best Buddies"
Oil, 6" x 6" on museum quality panel.
$200 with display easel.


I don't often paint using "purple shades" as most of you know I am an "orange girl". But this painting kind of took off and the next thing I knew I was painting with a very different palette. And since I premix my colors I still can't figure out how this happened! What happened to my orange?
I am heading up to my studio shortly to finish one of my larger commissions. I can't wait to photograph it and post it here very soon!

Settled In (and my first palette knife video!)

I have been promising myself I would do a palette knife painting video for quite some time now. After spending about 40 hours on my son's volleyball video I figured now was a good time to get it done. My editing skills are certainly refined and it was actually fun to do. Plus my new TB hard drive allows me plenty of storage for my video projects.
So my first palette knife demo is complete and you can view it here.
I love uplifting music so don't expect some slow playing classical music in the background ... I had a lot  more fun with the Black Eyed Peas!

The Red Sail

Pin It
"The Red Sail"
Oi, 6" x 6" on canvas panel.
$200 unframed.


I am so enjoying my time at home with my four boys. We had lots of sports this weekend and wonderful times with friends. A perfect weekend! I decided to try to paint during the Laker game and this little painting came together pretty quickly. I am surprised it didn't come out purple and gold (and for all you Celtics fans ... those are the official Laker colors ...)!
