New Painting: Zesty Lemons

Zesty Lemons 1, 7"x10," acrylic on watercolor paper

It's all about color, and where else do we see that wonderful, almost shrill lively lemon color but in lemons? Add to that a suggestion of a jade jar in the background, some wonderful scratches with the palate knife betraying the sheer abandon and fun of the making, and there it is, a splash of beauty etched in a moment in time. That's what a painting is all about, or should be.  Click here for buying info.

2nd Post: Apples with Pizazz

Hi Friends. Forgive me if you're seeing this a second time (or third). It's a new program for me and I'm still trying to get a handle on it.

Apples with Pizazz, 7"x10," acrylic on paper. For the season: $225

We already know what apples look like in real life. And some realistic painting of them can be beautiful. But what about when you add personality, movement, pizazz?  That's when a still life really comes to life. Powerful color, zesty stroke, contrast of the warms and cools and wow! It's in hearty acrylic on stiff and thick watercolor paper, ready for matting and framing. Click here for a larger view.  For purchase info click here.
