Little Tree Frog 4 by 5″ (oil on paper )

This little gem is painted in oil and as you may be able to tell is still wet. It will get slightly darker as it dries, which may take a week.

I have been painting this painting in bits and pieces for weeks. It started out as a pink painting, went to green and ended up here as an ultramarine blue and red painting with the hits of pink and green peeking thru here and there.

I think these photos just don’t turn out at night as well as those taken in outdoor light.   This painting is much more delicate than this photo shows.  I think its the flash. 

It is 11:54  PM and I’ve just finished this painting and hurried to get it on line before midnight.  I’ve really been having a difficult time getting all these commissions finished.   I had three  this week, and two of them were larger paintings, I’m still working on them, I’ll try to post them later this week if I can.

A painting a day “Tulips ll”

This is 9 by 12  $75.00 and I didn’t think about it till I was finished but this is almost too big.   See, I always uses  Arches  paper which is smaller than Frabriano Artistco paper and when I make these small paintings I cut the paper in half.  Not thinking I did this, painted the painting and when I went to measure it, I realized it was too big.  opps.. Well I’ll paint another tomorrow not exactly like this but some tulips.   I’m using my new paints and I think this red is a touch brighter than the other red.

Abstract in red

11 by 14 watercolor on paper 75.00

Last night I painted three little cherries and I painted them and I painted them again and again… never quite getting the look I wanted, I painted them so much they looked overworked and tired. So I put them to bed and today I am posting this abstract in their place.  Sometimes a small little thing can get the best of you. I ‘ve painted lots of Cherries, I know their image, have it right there in my minds eye, I can see their color, shape, highlights and pretty much can paint them in my sleep. Why? why? why is it that even though you can paint something over and over again at a drop of a hat… at times you can’t. Guess it was just one of those days. I did paint a bit on my larger Koi painting which you might check into.. http:// h20color.wordpress.com  Its coming along and only needs some final tweaking.

Sheep Dog

11 by 15, oil pastel $300.00.plus 6.40 shipping and handling.

This is a oil pastel of a Beautiful herding dog. I put in the red color because it seemed to match the passion this dog has for life and her spirit for doing her job.

Koi eye view

3.5 inches by 7 inches $35.00 

I have painted several Koi paintings in red and even though they are a bit different I find them quite interesting.
