Plentiful

 

Plentiful
12" x 12" Oil on Panel
Contemporary Floral Still Life
This panel has lots of paint and texture on it.  I used a filbert brush for most of this painting.  I love painting sunflowers because the petals flop and are irregular.  I thought this was a very pretty ceramic piece, and I liked it in the composition. Contact ME for more info.  Thanks for looking at my art!  KMW

These Days

 

These Days
Contemporary Abstract
Oil, Charcoal and Oil Bars on Canvas
Approximately 50" x 50" on Unstretched Canvas
These days I am into abstracts, starting with what I call a roadmap.  I draw, paint and then scrape away the oils, and do all again.  I mixed my colors and mixed more colors, and my piles of oil overlapped...so that they are harmonious. I did not plan anything, it all happened and the prussian blue lines/vase was put in at the very end...so now I have an abstract floral.  Contact Kay for more info.  Thanks for looking at my blog.  KMW

Seabrook - Sold

Seabrook
SOLD
(Pre-Matthew Hurricane Plein Air Painting)
8" x 8" Oil on RayMar Cotton Panel
Just sold at Dutch Art Gallery this week!  Here's another Seabrook Island painting that ended up being a palette knife painting.  I got to the beach and realized that I did not have any brushes or medium.  So by default, this seascape is a palette knife painting.  Here's what my set-up was like, with high tide approaching.
Thanks for looking!  Kay

Sunflower

Sunflower
10" x 10" x 3/4" Oil and Silver Leaf on Cradleboard
Contemporary Floral
Oil on top of the silver leaf is not easy to apply, and it takes time as layers and layers work best.  Once the oil in sitting on top of the silver leaf, it needs to set-up before the next layer is applied.  I like the look of the leafing and the imperfections that the sheets of silver leaf have.You can see the black base coat of paint peeking through in some areas.  I varnished this piece, it is drying in the studio.  Please contact Kay with any comments or questions.  Framing is optional...can be hung as is.  This piece is available for purchase.  Thanks, KMW

Extravagant Ways


Extravagant Ways
Oil and Oil Stick on 40" x 40" Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Abstract Floral
I love painting on large square canvases.  Extravagant Ways is a mixed media piece because I used charcoal, oils, and oil bars.  Using the willow charcoal stick, I scraped into the layered oil when it was wet.  I enjoyed experimenting with different color combos as I worked my way through the painting.  The asymmetrical design and irregular shapes gives the imagination a chance to go to work.  Contact Kay for more info on this original painting.  Thanks for looking!  KMW

Sunny Day

 

Sunny Day
10" x 10" Oil and Silver Leaf on Cradleboard
Contemporary Floral
I finished this cradleboard in the studio, after applying layers and layers of paint.  It seems like the cradleboard or the silver leaf sucks up the paint, making me apply more and more thick oils.  This painting is drying in the studio, and it does have so other companion pieces, but they are not yet finished.  Thanks for looking at my blog...contact ME with any questions or comments.  Kay
