I'll Be Your Friend - Still life oil painting

Sometimes when I get frustrated with my paintings I take a break and just paint something fun that I know will turn out how I want it to. For me it's usually these little pear oil paintings, I love the colors I get to use and the shapes of the pears.

Working together - daily painting

It's so cold outside right now, and I think it got reflected in today's painting. I should have picked a warmer subject. I'm still cold, time to go put on another sweater.

Lemons in a bowl - daily painting

I had so much fun painting this piece. Lemons are probably the most cheerful fruit there is, and I don't think I'll ever get tired of our blue wedding bowls.

Pears on a plate - daily painting

I love this one, it's not very often that I like a piece so much that I don't want to list it for sale. This one is going to stay with me for a while.

I discovered something wonderful during yesterdays daily painting. Mixing up your own medium, two parts spirits + one part walnut oil = perfect painting bliss. I'm really excited to keep using it. I'm also really excited about the 5 new paintings that are still too wet to photograph, they'll be up soon.
