Pretty Petals

Pretty Petals

6" x 6" Oil on Linen Panel 

Contemporary Floral

I was so excited to buy some new brushes, and this small floral was painted with one of them.  It was small Princeton Dakota/Flat brush.  I loaded the brush with lots of paint...and made every stroke count on this small panel.  It was fun playing and experimenting with a brush that I normally don't use.  These peonies are drying in the studio...contact Kay for more info on this small floral.  Thank you!  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

Still Life Situation #1

16" X 12" Oil, Charcoal and Oil Stick on Canvas

Contemporary Still Life

I love painting abstracts.  On this canvas, my objective was to experiment with color and abstract my paintings in a simple but pleasing composition.  Textiles, ceramics, fruit, flowers, and vegetables are my subject matter.  Contact Kay with any questions or comments.  Thanks for looking at my art!  KMW

Golden Blooms

Golden Blooms

24" x 24" Oil and Gold Leaf on Canvas

Contemporary Floral

This canvas is drying in the studio, and needs a coat of varnish, along with a frame to finish it off.  The colors bounce off of the gold leaf that I applied on the canvas after an undercoat of black.  I like the way the eye moves around the canvas, going from petal to petal.  My hope is to frame this up and hang in my house until somebody decides that they want to give "Golden Blooms" a forever home!  Thanks for looking at my blog....contact me with any questions.  Have an artful day.....KMW

On my easel....

 

On my easel...

I have a 24" x 24" diptych on my easel...

each panel is 24" x 12", and will be able to be hung together.

It's so much fun when I have fresh flowers to paint!

I hope to put more layers on this tomorrow.

Thanks for looking at my art.  Kay
