Late Winter, palette knife landscape

"Late Winter"


About This Painting:
This was actually a class demonstration, then I repainted it as a palette knife painting when I got it home. I added the palm trees and the reeds along with the birds after I built up the texture with a knife. I was thinking about the day I spent at the Adam's Ranch a couple of weeks ago. We get fall colors in the winter here in Southern Florida. So the colors of winter are still prevalent, even when the warmer spring weather arrives.

Second Look, plein air Florida landscape

"Second Look" © 2011


This is the third painting I did at the Adams Ranch a little more than a week ago. I had packed up most of my gear, and then looked back at this view from the other side of the path before I loaded up my easel. I was tired and ready to leave, but it was so beautiful, and I wanted to at least get this one started. So i went back and unloaded everything! Got a great lay-in, and almost finished it on location...... I touched up a few things and added a little more detail when I got home. I just love the way it turned out! They don't all go so well.


This is the right side of the path I posted last week. The spring actually runs all the way around the little hill in that painting (End of the Road).


Enjoy!

End of the Road, Florida landscape with natural springs

"End of the Road"


Plein air painting I did at the Adams Ranch for Saturday's paint-out. The water actually runs all the way around the little hill. These natural springs are all over the ranch. Some of them have a sulfur smell to them, but this one didn't. The kite birds kept swooping down in front of me, and I was able to get some pretty good photos of them. It was cool and breezy too. What a perfect morning!

Enjoy!

Summer Sunset, lake demo landscape

"Summer Sunset"


Fun little demonstration for one of my art classes last week. It was a study on trees and water. I darkened the shadows and added more detail yesterday.

Many of my demos end up sanded down and painted over so I can re-use the board for the next class, but sometimes they just need a little more time and detail to be a very nice finished piece. I have started using my professional paints and materials when I do demos, instead of the student grade paints and supports. This gives me the option to touch them up and offer them for sale, or use them for fund-raisers and gifts.

Rising Up, seagull at sunrise

"Rising Up"

Painted this one a while ago from photos I took at the Fort Pierce Inlet. It was early morning, the wind was blowing so hard that the gulls could hardly fly at all. It reminded me how God helps us rise above the turmoil of life and always gives us a chance to start over with each new day.

Out to Pasture, landscape with horse and pond

"Out to Pasture"
© Fawn McNeill 2008

About This Painting:
One of my favorites. Lots of symbolism here. The cattle are a memory of the horse's old job. He's headed for the shade of the trees to rest and enjoy the day. The end of summer is for the last season of life. The peaceful glow in the water and the hidden bird is for the new life that is found after this one.
I was inspired from a camping trip; I went for an early walk and came across this scene.  I combined several pictures of this area to get a stronger composition.

This is an award-winning painting.  It continues on the sides, so framing is optional.

Went back and strengthened the shadows and some of the colors in this older painting, and added the doe. Always felt like something should go in the opening.

Frosted Palms, Florida landscape

"Frosted Palms"


About This Painting:
We have had some hard freezes already this winter. On this particular morning, my car was iced over, and I don't even own an ice scraper to remove it from my windshield. I had to put the defroster on high heat to get a hole big enough to see through!

I saw this scene early that morning while driving just north of Okeechobee City, near Fort Drum, which is south of Orlando in the middle of the state. It was truly amazing! For the first hour of my drive everything was frost covered, and then the sun began to break through the patches of fog. Then everywhere the sun hit was a bright orange, and all the shadows were sparkling blue from the ice.

I used to live in Montana, so ice is not strange to me, it is just strange to see it on palm trees in Florida!

Heaven's Joy, seascape angel at sunset

"Heaven's Joy"



About This Painting:
This is another one I did on watercolor paper. It is a harder support to work on, but nice for framing because it can be easily matted and put behind glass, even trimmed some if needed.

I painted the landscape from memories of Guam. We always had fantastic sunsets with intense colors. I added the angel for wishes of Joy.

Enjoy!

I believe we all have lots of angels looking out for us. Linda must have hundreds, because she was in a terrible wreck that she should not have survived. Her car was crushed by a big truck.

This painting is a reminder of the power of God to touch our lives and heal us, we just have to ask.

Rocks and Water, seascape rocky shore

"Rocks and Water"


Been out of town a lot lately, so I am posting this one from when I first began doing my daily studies. I still paint most everyday, but not as many small studies. I am doing more commissions and larger paintings based on these small ones.


This is one of a series of three. I really love the abstract shapes in the rocks, as well as the impressionistic look of the splash. Very fun to paint.

painting give-away!

I am planning to have a drawing for a free painting at the end of this month. I'll even pay for shipping! If you want to be included, then send me a first and second choice painting (in case the first one sells before the drawing.) The painting must be priced at $150.00 or less.

See the side-bar of this blog for some of the paintings to choose from, of course I haven't gotten them all listed, but it might help you to decide if you don't have to search through all of the posts.

My friend has a 6 year old daughter that paints with me, and she will pick the winner out of a bowl! Sounds like fun to me!

Creation Sings, Montana landscape, Kootenai Falls

"Creation Sings"



About This Painting:

Did this one years ago. I used to sit here by the Kootenai Falls, in Libby Montana and watch the water roar. There is a swinging bridge that is very scary to cross just down stream from this spot. Sometimes I really miss my family and the beauty of the mountains.

It took me months to paint this large realistic painting!
