I am trying to "mix up" the subject matter of my paintings this year. Basically what that really means I am trying not to paint so many boats. I am also trying a few new things with color so I know the color in these last few paintings is pretty intense. It's fun to experiment.
I also thought I would try to include close-ups of my paintings as I get a lot of requests for more details of my knife work.
I am hiding out in my office and studio today. We are filming a commercial for "Capital One" tomorrow which is a good thing because it forced me to get rid of all of my holiday decorations! In fact, the Christmas lights on the house are coming down today. There is a crew here today "prepping" for the commercial. Would you believe they are putting up Halloween decorations everywhere? In January? And I just found out they are going to be throwing eggs at my front door tomorrow. Really?

Still Corked

Pin It
"Still Corked"
Oil, 6" x 8" on canvas panel.
$200.00 unframed.
I had so much fun painting the wine corks on Saturday (and I had leftover paint on my palette) that I decided to try another one. I must enjoy painting these because I like red wine so much ... I can't think of any other reason ...

Big Reds

Pin It
"Big Reds"
Oil, 6" x 6" on canvas panel.
Sold.
I had fun with this one today. I am a huge fan of red wine and at the last minute decided to use the sage green background. I am so glad that I did!
We are heading off to the Cold Play concert tonight. Even at 50, I still love rock and roll.
