This is a small landscape done from a photograph.
Morning Coffee and the newspaper
This is the first time I have tried to paint a newspaper! A coffee cup seemed like a good companion.
Three Roses, Large Painting
This is a large acrylic painting of roses. I completed it a couple of years ago before I started this blog.
Actual Wall Painting of “I am the Vine”
In my previous post I mention that I had completed a wall painting for the education room of Trinity Cathedral in Little Rock. These are photographs of the actual wall.
“I am the Vine”
This is my painted model for a wall mural that I recently completed in Mitchell House of Trinity Episcopal Cathedral, Little Rock. I was asked to paint this on the wall. Someone else had previously written on the wall ” I am the Vine, You are the Branches'” from the scriptures, John 15: 5.
A Fall Landscape
This painting was done in oil and I had to wait 6 months before I could varnish it, so it did not get posted in the fall of 2016. The rocks were painted quite heavily and I was afraid that the oil would crack if I varnished too early. Many artists believe that you can varnish after one month, and I have done this, too, but only if the paint film is not heavy.
Studies of Peonies
These two paintings are simple studies of peonies. I’ve never been totally satisfied with my peonies and have not found really good artificial peonies to look at. I am posting both paintings here in the same post.
