Orange and Grapes

 

Orange and Grapes
5" x 7" 
Acrylic Paint on Ampersand Gessobord
Collection of the Artist

I love this one!  I should paint oranges more often.  It was fun to paint and so hungry painting, I ate the prop before I was finished.   That is why I paint so many pears.  I don't like pears and don't eat them, so they last for several paintings~  

Orange and Grapes was painted using professional artist grade acrylic paint on a museum quality gallery Ampersand Gessobord. Painting can be placed in a small frame and also be placed on a small easel for display.

This is the last of the paintings from the weekend~  Thinking of what to paint next.....maybe landscapes!  

Thank you for stopping by~

Strawberries and Grapes


Strawberries and Grapes
5" x 7"
Acrylic Paint on Ampersand Gessobord
~sold~


I can remember the girls coming in the kitchen, seeing a bowl of fruit and saying "Can we eat this or are you going to paint it"....the memories.... I starting bringing the food home from the Farmer's market and taking quick reference photos before the kids came in and the fruit disappeared.  I have had this reference photo around for a while and finally got brave enough to give it a try....grapes are not easy!
Well, I am very happy with way it turned out and slowing conquering my fear of grapes...HA!

Strawberries and Grapes was painted using professional artist grade acrylic paint on Ampersand Gessobord. Painting was finished with a light coat of varnish. This painting can be slipped into a frame or placed on a small easel.

Now off to paint flowers maybe...but lemons will be involved....there are two in the 'fridge~

I haven't painted glass in a while.  I love how this one turned out!

After looking at this painting for a while, I decided I couldn't part with it.  It is now framed and will be living with me~

I hope everyone is having a wonderful summer~  It seems to by flying by.  As usual, so much to do and so little time~  Back to painting!

Thanks for stopping by~

EBSQ - - Art of the Day!


Art of the Day!!

Lemons and Red Bowl
8" x 10" Acrylic on Canvas
SOLD
I am so excited and honored to have been selected as "Art of the Day" at EBSQart.com. This was part of the series of Lemon paintings I did around Christmas. They have been such a big hit, I will be painting more in the near future.
I have two new paintings finished and ready to put online, but the weather has not been good enough to get good quality pictures. I take pictures of my paintings outside in natural light. Hopefully, I will be able to do that tomorrow. The snow has stopped, but it will be 20-30 degrees and I don't know if my camera will be happy with that. One painting is a new version of Green Apple Martini---16" x 20", and a new 6" x 6" Pear painting (this time a golden yellow pear and red wine grapes.
Well, I had better get busy. So much to do.
Check out the "Art of the Day"--- http://www.ebsqart.com/ I get to be famous for the day!
