So if you’ve been following my art for anytime, you may be thinking this latest series is quite different.  Well true in a sense but it is rather I’m more revisiting an old style!  When I lived in Canada I painted flowers

In a very colorful and simple way.  So lately I’ve been thinking of how I can interpret and paint my current surroundings in a bright and happy way.  So it’s taken me a while and finally I’ve begun playing with paint and prickly desert scape.  I hope to add a gentler touch to an old southwest theme.  We will keep the cowboys out it.  Anyhow, hope you have a happy time painting whatever currently is inspiring you!  Let me know how you discover new inspiration?? Thanks for reading,

You Surround Me

12”x12” oil on 3/4” canvas

"You Surround Me”

Love the season of fall and the colors of fall leaves.  I worked thin to thick with the paint on this.  Had fun layering fall colors, and then of course my favorite birdie!

Painted this on a professional canvas.

Hope you enjoy!

"You are never too old to set another goal or to dream another dream."  C.S. Lewis

I am glad I tried painting sandpiper.  Sometimes us painters get in rut and we don't know what to paint.  Who knows why it happens.  I feel taking on something new; whether its in the subject of what we paint or medium, or whatever, that can help get us out of the rut.

So I'm glad I tried something new and I hope you try it to and are pleasantly surprised!

I believe these are fairy finches.. I just can't get over how cute they are.  I have been painting birds even though I am primarily known for painting flowers and I am hooked!  They are like flowers with wings.  Thanks for looking!

Goldfinch & Pine

The goldfinch is such a beauty! I feel birds are flowers with wings.:).  I am straying from my usual florals these days because it's been so busy with kids in school and starting sports and music I feel my head spinning!  So a simple bird takes me out of the stress and into a world of simplicity.  I hope you have a great time in your studio!  Happy Painting

P.S.  The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls.
