Twisted Creek

9×12 oil on canvas

This was inspired from a drive around Benbrook Lake. The twist and turns of this low lying creek bed was appealing to me. The normally dry creek bed actually had water in it. I painted it with expressive strokes and dynamic colors using a large palette knife.

Red Jewels

22×28 oil on canvas

A plein air study of the poppies at the Lake Granbury Master’s Garden center inspired this painting. Seeing the poppies in the garden are swoon worthy and a delight to see. They are the red jewels in the garden.

I painted this in the studio , building up color and texture with a palette knife . It felt like the flowers were blowing in the wind and dancing.

Lakeside and Sunny

24×18 oil on linen

Painting on location along the banks of Lake Benbrook inspired this studio piece. When I arrived the sun was rising, filing the sky with glorious color. I couldn’t paint fast enough to catch all the changes. The sunflowers were blooming and everything seemed to glow in the morning light. It was fun to explore this subject on a larger canvas.

Victorian Garden

10x8 oil on canvas

I was invited to participate in the Secret Garden Tour in Weatherford. This was sponsored by the Chandor Gardens. The house I was assigned to was a charming Victorian home with a large porch, gingerbread trim and white picked fencing. The garden featured pops of color everywhere. I was thrilled when the homeowner’s children joined me with their paints and easels. It was a fun day with a steady stream of visitors.

I was thrilled to sell this painting right off the easel. The person that purchased it, was on the phone with her friend, that grew up in this house. She bought it for her.

Light Tones

8x10 oil on linen

I created this at Benbrook Lake on Wednesday. I met up with friends on the coolest morning we’ve had in a while. The promise was 68 degrees, but in reality it was in the low seventies. It was still a splendid time to be outside painting. Some may see this scene as unappealing, but I found the morning light was casting a warm glow on the landscape.

Grassy Reflection

9x12 oil on canvas

I created this after painting "Autumn's Color Spot". I wanted to zoom in and explore this little cove of this waterfront view. The sun was going down creating a warm glow to the grasses. It was fun to use the same source, but with a different view.

Autumn’s Color Spot

12x16 oil on canvas

We took a boat ride on a warm afternoon in November. It was a rare day when it was warm with low winds. The lake was clear of other boat traffic. The sun was low and sinking towards the horizon. It was lighting up the landscape.  The calm waters made a wonderful reflection that I attempted to recreate.

Chasing Sunflowers

11x14 oil on wood panel

Chasing Sunflowers was a plein air piece I started in a beautiful field of sunflowers.

We set up quickly and got to work. As soon as we started the owner showed up and asked us to leave. He did say we could finish, so we worked quickly. When I got home it looked like a hot mess. So I scraped the painting and started over! The landscape around this field was so beautiful. I was determined to make this one work.

Poppies in the Sunrise

10x20 oil on canvas

This painting was inspired from a garden on a very busy road. When I saw the bright red poppies, I turned around. This garden also had roses, peonies and small yellow flowers. Add all that and the rising sun was a painting in the makings. Using the palette knife and carving this scene out was a fun exercise.
