Deb's Find

8" x 8" x 2" Oil on Cradleboard

Contemporary Still Life

This ceramic pot was beautiful.  It was spotted by Deb on our recent trip to Greece, sitting in a window sill with lots of warm light hitting the pot and the leaves.  Deb gets the credit spotting it, and taking a photo of it.  I couldn't wait to paint it once I got back into the studio.  Here's my version of the ceramic pot, thanks to Deb for finding it!  More paintings from our trip to Naxos to come.  Thanks for looking...have an artful day!  Kay

Welcome

12" x 12" Oil on Panel

This painting was a gift to a friend, so I know that "Welcome" has a lovely home.  I remember painting this little panel with Dreama Tolle Perry in one of her workshops several years ago.  It was a fun and informative workshop.  One of the best things that I took away from the workshop was her color palette, her use of transparent and opaques, and the joy of painting process.  If you have an opportunity, visit her website and blog.  I have two new paintings on the easel at the studio...I hope to have a very productive day!  Thanks, KMW

Three Pots

I have been looking at all the florals that I have painted in the past, and this is one of my first flower pot paintings. I am wanting to enter the Texas Visual Arts Association Flower Exhibit and Juried Show. I have several pieces that are possibilites. I need to make a decision pronto since the deadline for entries is tomorrow. I will let you know what I decide to enter.

Lace Curtains

"Lace Curtains" was painted when I was going through a window and shutter phase. I think I had started with three flower pots and gradually added more and more...until I got thirteen flower pots sitting on t he ledge. My favorite part about this painting is the bricks and stucco on the outside of this building...used a knife, so the paint is thick a textured. I am getting ready to look at my pictures from our painting weekend in the hill country. Lots of cows, horses, dogs and beautiful landscapes to paint...
