Christmas Nest III 12 x 12 Oil on Panel

Paintings make great Christmas presents.  During the holiday season galleries have small works shows so that people can find more affordable paintings to give as gifts.  Some of your favorite artist will paint smaller paintings to sell as gifts.  So please check your local galleries.  This painting is available at the Shain Gallery in Charlotte, NC. 

Grapes and Bowl 16 x 16 Oil on Canvas

I am working on the single object theme or more simplified theme at the moment to give a more modern feel to my paintings.  This painting will be available at the Shain Gallery in Charlotte, North Carolina for their Small Works Show that starts this Friday, December 4.  The reception is from 6-8pm. Hope if you are in the area you go by and check it out.  If not you can always visit their website at Shain Gallery  or you can visit my new website at Christine Bray Fine Art  

Taken 3 My Painting In a Scene From The Movie

My painting was rented through Anne Irwin Fine Art for the filming of Taken 3. Part of the movie was made in the Atlanta area.  My fellow artist Lynn Johnson, you can look at her work on Anne's website, found the painting in the movie.  I had watched the movie and thought I saw it, but didn't think about stopping it and rewinding.  I am so grateful that she did that for me.  I own the movie so now I will watch it again.  Since the painting never sold and I have it I have decided to keep it for myself.  It's pretty cool to have your painting make it into a well known movie!

Textured 16 x 16 Oil On Canvas

I recently purchased this pottery piece and decided to paint it in a series of pottery pieces.  The pottery was textured and I decided to add more texture and color to it then was actually there.  I wanted a simple feel for the painting.  This painting is available at Anne Irwin Fine Art.  It is for the annual Small Works Show that will start Friday, November 13th from 6:00-8:30pm and runs through December.  Please stop by to see everyone's work.
