Makes you want some lemonade doesn't it! I also liked the bowl full of lemons and The Spot Carpint. Would love to hang one of your paintings on my wall!
ReplyDeleteHi Sharon, I was particularly taken by the Morning in Edinburgh. I lived in Glasgow, Scotland for 6 years and visited Edinburgh several times. When were you there? I think the most striking thing about the city is the patina of age. No matter where you go you are always conscious of being someplace where hundreds of generations have gone before you. Love your other paintings also but that one evoked many nice memories.
ReplyDeleteAm a google follower and also subscribed to your newsletter. I do not use websites such as facebook of twitter.
Leaving a comment for that pretty painting. :)

ReplyDeleteIt took me forever to figure out how to leave a comment-so you know how much I love you and your painting! Anyway, I'm now a follower, I looked around your site, and I posted on facebook. Also, I lit a candle in your name, did a little chant, and sacrificed a jar of jelly. So...I win, right?
ReplyDeleteI loved the California Coast Oil Painting. Thanks for the contest.

I just love your paintings. My favorite at this time is Three's A Crowd and I especially love the title. Another favorite is also the avacados. How about painting a pomogranate.
ReplyDeleteHi Sharon, I am constantly amazed by artists who manage to complete a whole painting - no matter how small - in just one day! I have recently started oil painting and am inspired by these artists.

What a lovely giveaway. I also love the avocado painting you have in your shop too.

ReplyDeleteI love, love, love your work. I discovered your work on the front page of etsy. I love your lemon paintings (this one, as well as the one with the turquoise plate) -- it would look great paired with the avocado or pear paintings. I also love your coastal scenes -- I'm going to show the Kauai painting to my husband tonight since that is where we went on our honeymoon. I'd love to know what beach is in this painting...
ReplyDeleteThanks for the opportunity and have a great weekend!!

Hello! Love your work! You make everything look so smooth even though you use large visible brush strokes! That is a technique I need to work on myself, sometimes I get so obsessed with making everything perfect. But loose brush strokes add such a nice feeling to a painting. Keep up the great work! I would love to win your beautiful little lemon painting! christinaleelong@yahoo.com

Wow! Your landscapes are reminiscent of the Group of Seven landscapes except they depict tropical locations. I’m usually more drawn to the realism style such as the Hudson River School landscapes and trompe-l'œil style of paintings, but your still life and landscapes are very stunning. I would love to win the Citrus Blue painting. Thank you so much for giving me a chance to win it.
