Finest Pick

Always amazed that the most beautiful flowers come from a seed in the dark. These flowers bloomed out of a plethora of paint! I used FW inks and they are notorious for mixing well together.

Strata

Strata is a 9 X 12 oil painting using a palette knife. It abstractly represents Arizona and the colors are various reds and corals, and blues and greens. It was too much fun to paint! I used Georgian Water Mixable Oils on Canson Art Board.

Whale's Tongue

Whale's Tongue is a common name for this Agave plant. I see them at the beach and I just love the shadows the leaves cast. Of course I pushed the colors and shapes of light and shadow. This is a 12 x 9 original, painted with Daler Rowney FW acrylic ink on watercolor paper.

Strumming

Asheville, North Carolina has the most exciting art community and energy. There are so many places to go and see. Found an old store front window displaying musical instruments and just had to stand and enjoy looking at their shiny surfaces and interesting shapes. This painting is more abstract than I usually paint. Abstract is much more difficult than it looks. I throughly enjoyed painting this acrylic on canvas and plan to paint some similar pieces. Painted with Daler Rowney acrylics.
