I have finished with this group of commissioned paintings that were to be completed before Christmas. The customers have been so nice and patient waiting on me to get back to work. I have a few more to get finished.

Up next:

I am painting Monet's Lily Pond at Giverny. I have a customer who has bought two of my lily pond paintings and has commissioned a third to go with the grouping. I will be painting the lily pond and including Monet's green boat that he featured in his paintings. This should be a fun commission to do.

Last but not least, I will be finishing up paintings that have been promised to the American Heart Association for the upcoming gala and auction.

It is nice to be back to painting on a regular basis.

Thanks for stopping by,

I have painted a new version of Lemons and Red Bowl. The lemon paintings have been fan favorites. There are more lemon paintings to come.

Pear Trio is a new pear painting. It wasn't planned. I just felt like pears.

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!

Lemons and Red Bowl Available for Purchase at Etsy.com

Lemons and Red Bowl

I am still painting lemons. Lemons and Red Bowl is continuing to paint my bag of lemons with my new bowls I received for Christmas. Lemons and Blue Bowl has already found a home in Virgina. I am currently working on my Flow Blue teapot with lemons. It should be completed by the end of the week.

I am finishing up Christmas portraits and then I will be working on larger paintings because I am currently out of 8 x 10 canvas. I will have to make a trip to Cheap Joe's in Charlotte soon.

This new painting is currently listed in my Etsy.com store.
