Presents!

Lots of family and friends requested paintings as gifts this year.   I guess that saves me money, but it's hard to know what to paint for them.  Hopefully I did an ok job :)  And now that Christmas is over I can post them here!

Tiny Pear - Still life oil painting

I found these tiny canvases hiding in my studio, I had completely forgotten about them. So they are what I'll be working with for the next few days.

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.

The Argument

I love painting pears, I think I always will. I like how they're never the same shape, each one has unique curves. I also love blue and green together, which anyone who went to my wedding already knows :)

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.

Just in time for Valentine's day :)

Favorite fruits

These are two of my favorite still life paintings, unfortunately both sold within an hour of me listing them, I kind of miss having them around.

I love painting pears. They're always a different shape, they're usually a wonderful green color (at least the ones I pick are), and I think they have more personality than any other fruit. I think these two could have speech bubbles depicting their conversation.
