Okay so this time I put in jelly beans for the eggs for a Spring or Easter theme. I know its probably hokey, but sometimes we need those things. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it.
After painting the pink roses I decided to do the same theme with yellow roses. I think this painting and the Pink Roses are to be together. This painting is available on my blog at My Painting Store.
I decided after seeing so many vessels with blue and white to do a painting with blue and white objects with pink flowers. This painting is available only on My Painting Store on the right hand side of the blog. This is not at the gallery.
In the oil painting class that I teach on Thursday afternoons we painted roses for a few weeks last season. This is another attempt for me. This painting is available on My Painting Store on the right hand side of my blog, not at the gallery.
It's getting time for birds to make their spring nests. One of my friends, Robin, just brought me 3 new nests. The 3 nests are so wonderful. They are all different with 2 of them being really small. I can't wait to paint them.
Make a beautiful statement with every painting. That is my motto. It could be a color, shape, texture or object in a painting that pulls the whole painting together. No matter if it is an old masters type of a painting, landscape, seascape or portrait I am always looking for a certain energy to come through my paintings.
Throughout my life I have been encouraged to create. During college I found myself interested in Textile Design and graduated with a BFA in Textile Design from Georgia State University. I have over 20 years’ experience in the textile field. From designing throw blankets, rugs, apparel, paper goods to upholstery material. Needing an additional creative outlet, I started taking oil painting classes locally and eventually studying with many internationally known artists as David Leffel, Daniel Keys, Sarah Lamb, Qiang Huang, Scott Conary, Robert Johnson, Nancy Franke, Karen Appleton and Bill Davidson among others. This eventually led me to art groups, small venues and then to an emerging artist show, which propelled my art career.
