Pansies & Grapes

Well, it's good to be back!  I took a week vacation to Mexico and got back last Saturday!  I miss the daily grind!  Love being at hope and just painting.  

I painted this at the Scottsdale Artists School,  before I went.   Hope to get painting this weekend on some new subjects!   Hope you have a good weekend. 

Art class

Well, it's been a very busy week! I have nothing new to post because all my paintings are still drying off at the Scottsdale Artists school.  Taking a course with Joni Falk and am loving it!   So many beautiful still life setups to paint, I'm painting as many as I possibly can.  Stay tuned I will get to posting photos soon!  Thanks , keep on painting!

Snow drops

I haven't painted these little flowers in a long time!  What's so strange is I started this painting yesterday and didn't post it on any social media sites and a man from holland who bought three of my snow drop paintings sends me a photo of his paintings this morning!!  Anyhow, I thought it was interesting!  So here they are, I really enjoy this painting mostly I just love these flowers.  Hope you enjoy!

Fall Friend

Painted this from a setup in my studio!  I had so much fun putting this display together!  I really love owls, if you are wondering I found this guy at michael's.

Hope you enjoy!

Sunshine & Autumn

Bid on this painting!

Sometimes I miss the cool autumn breezes, but today the temperature finally dropped!  I felt some cool air for the first time in months!!  Sorry, I'm not complaining but it did inspire me to paint another fall painting.  I love fall colors, your probably wondering where does she find fall leaves in the desert?  Well, I had a little help from Michael's craft store!  

Hope you enjoy!  Happy painting!

Carry On

6x6" original oil painting by Krista Eaton.  Painted this today because I love painting pretty things like this!  I just wish I had more time to just sit with friends and enjoy tea.  We artists paint and after that there is a avalanche of tasks waiting for us when we are done painting.  And the days can slip by very fast!!  It's all good.

Apples & Blossoms

I used to ride my bike along the shore in a place called Blackie's Spit, near crescent beach in British Columbia, it was a park on the the ocean and wild birds lived there and the apple trees.  Around this time of year I would find apples along the trail!  Click here to bid on this painting!
