Pensacola Beach

 

9"x12" Oil on canvas panel

This is one I painted last month while we were in Pensacola, FL. We visited the beach a couple times but on the day I took the reference picture for this painting it was super cold and windy so the beach was empty. I loved the desolation, emptiness versus the bright colors of the image.

Shimmer

 

9" x 12" oil on canvas panel

I've been busy with commissions and not been able to post. Shimmer has been on the easel for a while; something was just bugging me about it. I adjusted a couple of the edges on the floatie and added some warmth to the pattern on the floor of the pool and now the painting is sitting better with me.

Miles From Here

 

16" x 20" oil on canvas

This scene is from a late summer trip trip, probably someplace in Iowa. The day was bright and the corn was high.

Sunset Service

 

12" x 16" oil on canvas panel

I am way behind on posting! I painted this a couple months ago because of the bright reflections on the window and the beautiful sky in the distance.

Evening Wok

 

9" x 12" oil on canvas panel

I've wanted to do a nocturne for a while and I liked this one with that lit upstairs window.
