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.

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.

Butterfly Wishes, abstract palette knife painting

"Butterfly Wishes"
© Fawn McNeill 2009



About This Painting:
This is the first of a series of 4 palette knife butterflies I did a few years ago.


I wanted to make it look like it was moving quickly, so I used a painting knife for a more abstract effect. 

The symbolism is in the colors: green is for growth and wealth, orange is for warmth and open arms, and yellow is for joy.

This little painting is loaded with thick paint and bold colors. 

Enjoy!

Media: acrylic on hardboard
Size: 5 in X 7 in (12.7 cm X 17.8 cm)

Tootsie, horse portrait

"Tootsie"




About This Painting:
This filly belongs to one of my students. She and her sister have been painting with me for a few years now. Occasionally I get to go out to their ranch and take pictures of their horses, dogs, and cattle. The ride out (on the back of a four wheeler) was way more than I expected! A little too bumpy for this old gal! But it was worth it to see the huge bulls, and watch the horses chasing the cows.... They didn't even have cowboys on their backs! They would run towards them and circle around them. Way too funny. It was as if they wanted to aggravate them for no reason.




I am working on a portrait of one of the bulls. He was impressive!




I am also accepting orders for animal portraits. I can use your photos and change the background to fit certain color schemes.

Secret Stream, palette knife painting

"Secret Stream"




About This Painting:
This one started as a path with pebbles and stones on the edges of it. Then it reminded me of one of many creeks I have crossed in Montana, so I added more rocks. I used a palette knife to get that sparkle effect of the water dancing down stream. Really fun to to create with a knife, because you never know what you will get in the end.


Enjoy!
