Dynamic Morning Display 20x20

Dynamic Morning Display

20x20 oil on canvas

 

Exploring this rich color combination was exciting.  This intense color in the sky only happens for a brief moment and quickly changes. I used the palette knife to blend the paint together and then to add layers of colorful paint. The texture adds dimension and movement to guide the eye around.

Iris Garden in Bloom 20x24

Iris Garden in Bloom 20x24 oil on canvas

I get excited with I see iris flowers in bloom.  Their delicate colors and petals remind me of my Mother- in-law. She had a large garden of iris of every color.  They lined her front yard and were beautiful.  My inspiration for this was from painting at the Ft. Worth Botanical Gardens in the spring time.

Quince Impression - 8x10

Quince Impression  8x10 oil on canvas

This started as a plein air painting from the Ft Worth Botanical Gardens in late winter.  I dug it out and decided to slapped more paint on it.  I added more texture with the palette knife. I'm always surprised at the shapes and color you can build up with the knife.  I think I will stop for now and enjoy it's soft colors and lovely design.

Fascinating Formation

Fascinating Formation 9x12 oil on wood panel

This dramatic sky was screaming paint me, paint me. I find the abstract shapes of the clouds an endless source of inspiration.  I created this on a smooth wood surface, which seemed to soak up the paint. This has many layers of color painted applied with a palette knife.

Blue Front Moving In

9x12 oil on canvas

 

The moment I saw this cloud formation, I knew I would attempt to paint it. The back lit clouds were a challenge to interpret. I used a phthalo blue and ultramarine blue to capture the moody blue morning. I don't think I finished with this color combination. I just love it.
