Garments of Praise, azalea flower

"Garments of Praise"




About This Painting:



Started as a simple monochromatic study in watercolors. Used only magenta, and a touch of black in the darkest shadows. The white of the paper creates the highlights and value changes. This was very time consuming and tedious, as I got lost in all the detail. This one turned into a very complicated project before it was over!



I love the contrast, not just in the values, but also in the abstract quality of the background against the very realistic petals of the flower. Makes it demand your attention.



The original is sold, but I would love to create something similar for you! I price my custom orders by size, and can use colors of your choice. Email me at: fmcneillbarr@gmail.com for more info.

ICU, great horned owl

"ICU"

This is a custom order. I used pictures that my clients sent to me, but the flash had made the eyes all white and reflective, so I did research to create the eyes. The owl was injured and they took it to a refuge to see if they could save it. Sadly he didn't make it.


Media: acrylic on canvas
Size: 11 in X 14 in (40.6 cm X 30.5 cm)

Dinner Time, great egret in a pond of lilies

"Dinner Time"



About This Painting:
This great white egret kept landing in front of me while I was painting en plein aire (out on location). He was very large, and fat! I think he (or she) wanted to pose for me. I did include him in some of the plein air paintings I did those couple of days. Then I painted a few of him in paintings like this that are done from the photos I took.



Ready to frame.

Cam's Garden, landscape, deer in the woods








Cam's Garden








(Detail)





About This Painting:


Been working on this painting off and on for about two years now. I wanted to use an impressionistic style, yet add quite a bit of detail too. Sometimes it is hard to get the right balance of these two ideas, but I must say it really worked!


Enjoy!


Now accepting custom orders, please email me at fmcneillbarr@gmail.com for more info and prices by size.

Mountain Music, palette knife, lake landscape


"Mountain Music"


I did a unit on Monet with my kids summer art class. So this demo was originally done in short choppy brush strokes, very similar to Monet's style. I liked the colors and wanted to finish it, but I wanted the mountains bigger and more rugged so I could add snow to them. Used a painting knife and started with the sky, and re-worked the whole thing just for the fun of it. I thought I would make it very abstract, but as I worked it became more and more detailed. A little of my obsessive quality shining through I suppose!


Enjoy!

Life's Balance, landscape, fall trees near a lake

"Life's Balance"

About This Painting:
Stayed a few days at my sister's house in South Carolina a few years ago. Went out on a very cold morning, with frost everywhere, painting on location with watercolors. This lake was just down the road from her house. When I got back to Florida I used those little watercolor paintings to make this painting.






Media: acrylic on canvas
Size: 8 in X 10 in (20.3 cm X 25.4 cm)
