Winning Time, Equestrian Art, Daily Painting by Fawn


"Winning Time"
11 x 14 inches
Acrylic on canvas
$875.00  Framed (see below)

Painted this from a photo I took at the rodeo here in Okeechobee. We have 2 big events each year, and some smaller ones also.

Started this painting at the beginning of this week, but I didn't get much time to work on it. I enjoyed playing with the abstract background, and contrasting that with the realistic horse and rider
. I also like the determined look on the girls face.

Rim Water, Sunrise Landscape, Old oak, Plein Air

"Rim Water"
(Lake Okeechobee)
9 x 12 inches
Acrylic on canvas

This is another older painting that I did a few years ago, I have added the egrets and a few more highlights to it. My photography is better now too, much more true to the right colors, and contrast. Of course, each monitor varies some in color too. My camera tends to throw off a blue cast, so I am learning how to adjust for that and get a better image.

I am glad I painted it when I did, because this old tree was taken out and now a huge house is in it's place. Sad face here.

I have to go back to the courthouse today. Jury duty . . .

Thanks for looking!

Separated, Impressionism, Young Cow, Daily Painting by Fawn

"Separated"
9 x 12 inches
Acrylic on canvas

SOLD

This is a painting I did last year in November. I have brightened it up quite a bit as I was never satisfied with it. Now it makes a stronger statement.
This little cow was separated from the others and when I came around the trees I was between her and the herd. She was as startled as I was and I thought she might charge at me! But she stomped, snorted and ran around until she got closer to the others.

Dawn's Magic, Sunrise Reflections Landscape by Fawn

"Dawn's Magic"
14 x 18 inches
Acrylic on canvas
Not Available


This was painted for a workshop lesson. Very moody. 


Sorry to say that I have been called in for jury duty, so my posts may be sporadic over the next few days. I also have company coming this week, and my regular private lessons to teach! Some of my lessons have had to be cancelled already . . . I am trying to keep a positive attitude here, but I think I will need some extra prayers this week!

Fall Leaves, Watercolor, Daily Painting

" Fall Leaves"
7 x 11 inches
Watercolor on acid free paper



Did this one from my sister's kitchen table a couple of years ago. Looking out of the window at the frost and wind, I decided to stay inside this time. My hands had gotten numb the day before. It is alla prima (all in one sitting).

Inlet Park Too, Florida Plein Air, Alla Prima, Beach

"Inlet Park Too"


This is the second one I did yesterday. I may add birds to it, but I kind of like it as is. A large osprey showed up and caught a very large fish in front of me. He could not get out of the water and struggled for sometime near the shore. Then he let the fish go and flew off. Very exciting!

8 x 10 inches
Acrylic on hardboard
$375.00 (free shipping in USA)
Elaborate custom frame, see below
