"Green Pastures 2"

Ready to frame.

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.

Ready to frame.

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 to frame.

About This Painting:
From pictures that I took at the Savanna Recreational Area in Fort Pierce at my last paint out. I was captivated by the huge cloud that came into view, so I wanted to try to capture it here. The birds were everywhere that day, so I put a few of them in as well.

California Colors, fall landscape with Montains and palms


"California Colors"

About This Painting:
Happy New Year!
This is from my recent trip to California, near LA. Painted this from memory of a car ride up in the mountains. I loved all the contrasts in foliage and rock! Then there would be palm trees in front of the mountains. Too cool.

Savanna's Sway, Florida landscape with palms and birds

About This Painting:

Cabbage Palm Study, reworked


"Cabbage Palm Study"

About This Painting:
I went back and strengthened this little plein air painting so the tree trunk would show better. It just seemed to get lost in the background, so I added the reflected light on the left of the trunk and darkened the shadows in the background.

Ready to frame.

Paradise, palms at sunset


"Paradise"
About This Painting:
Here is another art lesson I did last week, I have gone back and added more details and a second palm. I like the shades of purple and pink.
This type of painting is so popular, and so fun to paint. We start with an idea from a "how to paint" book, and then we add our own colors and move things around a bit. I take my students through the painting one step at a time, and still each painting turns out different and unique!

Lover's Lane, Beach Sunset


"Lover's Lane"

About This Painting:
This started as a demo, and I have gone back and added a lot of waves and sea grapes. The couple was fun to add too. The palms are from a plein air painting I did last year, only I put them by the ocean instead of the Indian River.

I wanted to get this done before Valentines, but it never worked out . . . Oh well! I like the very impressionistic feel it has, I tried not get too carried away with the detail, and keep it loose, but I tend to keep adding and fixing, so it ended up with birds, and people, and lots of wind and splash!

Dawn's Hope, Florida Sunrise


"Dawn's Hope"

This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it!


I really sensed a feeling of joy and anticipation as the sun came up and the fog lifted. This painting is symbolic for the way we have a new clean start anytime we chose to trust in Christ. I am not talking about religion, just about talking to God and asking him to forgive us. He is more interested in hearing our thoughts and leading us in a better direction than He is watching us go through the motions of tradition. He speaks to us through nature, through people, and through His word. We just have a hard time tuning in!
