Life Line, reworked, water, palette knife painting

"Life Line"

About This Painting:
The title just refers to water being a major source of life for us. I was also thinking that the view point here could be of someone who needed some help.....

Wanted to strengthen some of the shadows and add rocks. I have always liked the action in this painting, but I was making another one to create a set, and needed to make them work together better. I will post it later.

I have been sick for almost a week, along with my husband, so it has not been fun at my house lately!!!!! I am way behind on my painting projects.....thank goodness I do not have any deadlines right now!

Wild Iris, flower study

"Wild Iris"

About This Painting:
Saw this Iris out at the Adams Ranch a couple of weeks ago. The water behind it was covered in bright yellow-green algae, with some of the dark water showing through here and there. So after 3 tries to capture all those bright colors (and not liking the way the flower just disappeared), I decided to use the dark water, which sets it off nicely.

Green Pastures 2, Florida landscape with cattle

"Green Pastures 2"

(Psalms 23)

About This Painting:
Here is another one I painted from photos I took at the Adams Ranch. Added the cows and the birds for more interest. I really love the distant trees, they were so blue and hazy, so I tried to get that effect.

Spring in Spring 3

"Spring in Spring 3"

About This Painting:
Painted this from photos I took at last weeks paint-out while at the Adams Ranch. I have done this same natural spring from different angles. I love the way the water has such bright blues in it!

Lead Me Home, horses in their first snow

"Lead Me Home"

About This Painting:
These Florida horses now live in Georgia, snow is not something they are used too!

This painting is for Diane Cletzer. Her horses are in their twenties now, so I am sure this was quite an ordeal for them! They have been together all their lives, so this painting kind of takes on a spiritual meaning if you think of home as being heaven.....

Spoonbill, plein air landscape

"Spoonbill"

About This Painting: Went out to the Adams Ranch for an annual artist's day paint out. This is one of the many natural springs that flow through the ranch. The water is clear and very turquoise. this photo doesn't pick up the colors in the painting very well, but the blues are a little more of a greenish hue.

I added the spoonbill when I got home, I had seen it flying overhead while out painting, way too cool! (Spoonbills have a shorter neck than flamingos, and they range from white and soft light pinks to dark pinks, almost a red color, and sometimes they have yellow accents too. Very strange-looking bird, with a flat duck-like bill. Very pretty colors though!)

The painting continues on the sides which are close to 2 inches thick, so framing is optional.

Little Stream, landscape with wildlife, alligator and heron

"Little Stream"

About This Painting: Added the wildlife to this older painting after I saw this gator swimming beside our boat down in the Everglades a few months ago. That was the closest I have ever been to a gator!

I wanted a little more realism also, so I repainted some of the trees and water.

Before the Rain, swamp landscape with eagle

"Before the Rain"

About This Painting:
Plein air painting, Lori McNamara and I got rained out. Some of the painting was distorted slightly, but most of it held up with the rain water all over it. I repainted parts of it and finished it at home. The eagle was off to the right of this area. Lori got a great picture of him, it is posted on her blog. I moved him to the left so I could include him in my painting.

Ready, Set, Go! Calf in a field of dandelions

"Ready, Set, Go!"

About This Painting:
I just added this calf to an older painting. Always wanted to put something else in it, but never found the right critter. I saw this little calf get up and look back, and started snapping pictures of him! So cute! Finally, I had the perfect match....

Red-violet Orchids, exotic floral

"Red-violet Orchids"

About This Painting: One of my husband's new plants is in full bloom. I just love the vibrant colors! Couldn't resist painting it up close.

I am working on a few larger paintings, so these small gems are nice to break it up and get something finished. I thought I would stop doing my small paintings for the most part, but I must be addicted to them. Once I decided to do more large paintings and stop doing these small ones, it was like saying you're on a diet and then eating everything you shouldn't!

Florida Sunshine, viceroy butterfly

"Florida Sunshine"

About This Painting:
Painted this from some photos I took down at the lake. The fruit was actually a load of grapefruits that a truck had lost on the side of the road. This butterfly was drinking nectar from one of the grapefruits that was busted open. It would flutter around and then come back for another taste. I was truly taken by the strong sunlight and all the bright warm colors!

Happy Easter!

Spring in Spring, landscape of flowers near a pond

About This Painting:
This little spring was aqua in color, and quite opaque too. It was interesting to me to see so many colors in one little swell of water coming up out of the ground!

I Once Was Lost, piglet and calf

"I Once Was Lost"

About This Painting:
I saw this little wild hog following the calf around again and again, even though the mother cow kept chasing the piglet off.  The piglet would squeal and run away and then sneak back... It cracked me up!

I really enjoyed all the hours of detail in this one.

Grandma's Touch, mountain landscape with flowers

"Grandma's Touch"

About This Painting:
This actually began as a demo, then later I changed the color scheme and added more flowers and trees.... It reminds me of my grandmother's rock gardens in Montana. She loved working in her gardens. Some had flowers of every kind, and others had vegetables and strawberries. My fondest memories of her are when she taught me how to thin out the carrots, and to taste the difference in food you grew yourself compared to what we bought at the store.

Fall Colors, landscape in autumn

"Fall Colors"

About This Painting:
Little watercolor study of the colors of fall. Something I saw in California in Oakview. The sun wasn't out much that day, but when it came out everything was so bright and colorful in this one little area. I took pictures of it from different angles.

No Rush, Abstract art

"No Rush"

About This Painting:
This painting is all about joy and the celebration of color! It is the third in this series of fun little color studies. The greens look like cool hues against all those warm yellow-orange hues. I used Cadmium Yellow Light with the greens and Cadmium Yellow Medium with the oranges. Used some white to exaggerate the bright feeling I wanted.

Cool Rush, abstract art

Heated Rush, abstract art

"Heated Rush"

About This Painting:
Analogous abstract study. Something way off the beaten path for me! It started as wonderful warm sunspots, then it reminded me a little of blood cells, and finally I thought it could be a crowd of people. Really I just wanted to overlap these colors in a repetitious way. Too cool. Will have to do one in blues now......

Dance, tricolored heron

"Dance"

"Let them praise His name with the dance..."  Psalm 149:3

About This Painting:
Here is an older painting: originally created as a demo during an art show. It was fun painting this bird that I took lots of pictures of at Lake Okeechobee. He kept running up and down the beach, and wouldn't fly away. Sometimes he looked just like he was dancing around. Finally he got tired of me following him and took to the air!

Lone Sandhill, Florida landscape with sandhill crane

About This Painting:
This one needs a little more work, just a few corrections, but I like the overall effect. This Sandhill posed for me, along with its mate, and I got lots of great pictures. This is a combination of a couple of pictures I took that day at the Savanna's in Fort Pierce.

About This Painting:
