Zinnias in a Basket

A year ago I planted zinnia seeds right in our front yard and was amazed that I had hundreds of flowers, some as large as tea cups! I was able to paint 5 or 6 paintings of these flowers and for a while they became my favorite plants. This painting is 8″ x 10″. It is still available. If you are interested, click here.

This is another small 5 x7 painting on a canvas panel.  These illustrations were inspired by a magazine article my husband wrote regarding the Gullahs in South Carolina.  You can learn more about this painting by clicking here.

Landscape with Trees

This small 8″ x 10″ landscape was selected by someone almost immediately from my online store, (click here) so it is no longer available. Other paintings are available there.

Cactus Flowers

I saw many cactus flowers in Arizona and I remember a drink made from the cactus leaves. It is hard to believe that such thorny plants could have lovely flowers! To see more information on this painting go to my online art gallery by clicking here.


Pitchers and lemons

A blue-banded old fashioned tea pot, cup, and cream pitcher on a white tablecloth posed several problems for me. The first one was making the teapot look like china. The reflection seemed to do the trick. The lemons were an add-on to tie together the pieces of china. To see more information go to my online art gallery by clicking here.

Oranges in a Bowl

The oranges in this painting have a rough texture! It is an 8″ x 10″ acrylic painting on a canvas panel. To see more information go to my online art gallery by clicking here.

Two Pink Roses

This painting is an acrylic painting on Clayboard (which almost looks like Masonite!) It has a very fine surface. To see more information go to my online art gallery by clicking here.

Gardenias

I rooted a gardenia about three years ago. The bush is now about four feet high and has about a hundred blooms in the spring! They root easily in the month of June. To see more information and go to my online art gallery, click here.
