A New Series in the Making

I started a few paintings...simple paintings. Hopefully Simple paintings with big meanings.

So here's the first one " The Lost Letter". The girl is saddened by the loss of the letter L on her Tee shirt. She tries to catch the L as it falls.

Some more wildlife paintings

I've just completed a large painting 36" x 48" of a horse thundering by. She's running from a helicopter terrified of the BLM roundup, her foal has died from exhaustion trying to keep up.

Darn it why can't we leave life to be....

I also completed another piece which has been juried into a wild life show in Fallbrook.

So here they are.

Art Opening Reception

It was a good night, traffic flow was steady, great feedback from both artists and patrons, sold a painting with possibilities of some more. Wonderful hosts, Joe and Mary Villela of Oceanside Art Gallery in Carlsbad. The show will be up for one month running March 24 - April 22, 2011.

I'm also getting ready for another show in Temecula at the beginning of May. Details to follow.

"The Day Trip" Painting

Here's another Painting just completed and boy was this a challenge.

I'm really intrigued with light, contrast and color. Also edges and shapes.

This painting " The Day Trip" measures 24" x 30" and it is an oil on Canvas.

Dragon Lady Painting

I've just completed two more paintings. At the end of March I will be having a one woman show at the Oceanside Art Gallery in Carlsbad.

The first painting is "Portrait of Ana". It is 24" x 30" oil on canvas.

The second painting is "Mating Season". It is 12" x 24" oil on canvas.

I'm working on few more pieces simultaneously. As I finish them I will publish them to the blog.

Painting Wildlife Again

Well I'm preparing for a show at the end of March.

My concentrate will be animals and people in the moment.

Here's a new piece.

Something New

Here's a painting I'm working on. It's a special painting. A friend, a special friend has commissioned me to do this painting as a surprise for a loved one.

I'm enjoying using all my various learning's from the past few years to create this piece.

Warms, cools, brushstroke,values,colors, direction, movement and more.

Hope they like it.
