Pink Grapefruit SOLD

Almost as juicy to paint as they are to eat! My goal was to capture the tranparency and the wetness. I think its there. This piece is 6" by 8" on panel. Its for sale at $65 directly from me.

SOLD...Thanks!

Mother's Coalport Cup SOLD

I love the warm light on the gold rim against the cobalt blue.
I know I will paint Mom's china again and again. It is quite contemplative to spend time looking at and painting things from my family history.
This piece is 8" by 8", oil on stretched canvas. Hope you enjoy.
Please enter your email in the side bar to recieve my paintings directly to your email.

SOLD...Thanks

Blue Coffee Pot SOLD

Form and edges were the theme for this simple subject. It is 9" by 9" on stretched canvas. The blue enamel pot reminds me of camping, hot coffee on a cold day.
I paint these small daily works for practice and experience, kind of a warm up for my painting day. This is a place where I can focus on particular themes and explore new directions.
Its also a great place for me to share my paintings with friends and family! I hope you enjoy viewing them.
For now I am offering these daily paintings starting at $65. Contact me directly if you are interested.
SOLD....thanks.....

Pewter Mug SOLD

Today I am posting the works I did last week as it took me a few days to get my blog up and running!
I have found that colour correcting the photo with the painting right beside my monitor gives me quite accurate results. There will be some variation on each monitor so the colour you see may not be quite correct.
Warm light and form are the themes for this painting. It is 5" by 7", on stretched canvas, a nice size for daily paintings. Most of my pieces posted here will be 5 by7 and 6 by 8. Small works, painted directly from life.
Almost all the work posted here is offered for sale. If you are interested please contact me directly through the email link. Like many"Daily Painters" I will post these on e-bay once I get it set up.

Sold...thanks

Pottery Goat

This is my first post to my daily painting blog. We brought this little fellow home from Mexico several years ago. It was fun to capture his "character" on the canvas. This painting is 8" by8" on stretched canvas.
