Be Mine Again, palette knife painting

"Be Mine Again"

This palette knife painting was created alla prima ( all at once). Purple is often used for the unknown, and of course red is for passion. It was intense and I wanted to let it pour out.

No greater love can anyone give than to give up their life for us. Jesus accepts us as we are, broken, wounded, unholy, and selfish. Yet he loves us, and pursues us, and never gives up on us. He wants us for himself, and to reunite us with our Creator. Faith can heal wounded hearts, and the love you find is not like anything a human can give.

Butterfly Wishes Too

"Butterfly Wishes Too"

Wishes for love and prosperity are symbolized by the red and green in this palette knife painting. I like the way the butterfly looks like it is part of the flower.

I started with a fairly thin lay-in, with large brush strokes, but it just didn't have the same effect. So I let it dry and went over the top with thick layers of paint on the palette knife. That is when it came alive! The colors began to mix together on the painting as I added more paint and pulled the colors across each other. I enjoy this wet-in-wet application, it gets messy, but it is fun to do. Many people are amazed that I use acrylics for this, but when you use the paint thickly, it takes longer to dry and is not a problem at all.

Grounded, equine art

"Grounded"

I took some photos of this mare and foal a couple of years ago. I have wanted to paint them ever since. So I finally got to it! I was attracted to the morning's back-lighting, which added tremendously to the sense of wonder that the foal seemed to have.

Red Rocks, sunset, beach

"Red Rocks"

Made this up for fun. I started with a thin strip of purple in the middle and worked out in both directions with rainbow colors. Then added the clouds, rocks and waves. It was painted alla prima.

Drapes, abstract

"Drapes"

Wanted to take it down (from my last two paintings) to a minimal study of color and line. I distorted and exaggerated the flow of the red drapes, and also strengthened the bluish shadow.

Window Orchids 2, floral

"Window Orchids 2"

Got a little wild and semi-abstract with these, but I love the closer view and the thick paint! Did this one alla prima, or all at once in one session. used loads of paint and let it squish all around. Too much fun!

Fading Glory, wildlife, buck

"Fading Glory"

I just added the buck to this older painting, and brightened up the vines. These palm trees no longer exist, the whole area where they used to live was leveled and plowed. A tree farm has been started there.

Thanks for looking!
