The Blues

The Blues

7x5 oil on wood panel

I started the year creating small paintings. This is an older one that I discovered in my studio, but never posted. I just love this color combination and the variety of blues. Spring is just around the corner and I can't wait for new buds to explode with color.

This is available.

My garden is a great source of inspiration. I love planting geraniums in this clay pot for the warm colors and great shadow effects.

Spring Garden

Spring Garden

5x7 oil on canvas

On the coldest day of the NewYear I created this, dreaming of my Spring Garden. The hope and planning of a garden always starts in the dead of winter. Everything is sleeping and waiting for the renewal of growth. May you find comfort in this season and new year.

Poppies in the Sunrise

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.

Thank you to a new collector and Dutch Art Gallery for sending this one off to a new home. This was a gift for a long lost loved one. They connected and she brought gifts of geraniums. This painting will remind them of that first meeting.

I love it when a painting connects to someone in a meaningful way. They sent this photo to share.

Hats off to Pam and Nick at Dutch Art Gallery for providing a beautiful frame and service.



Sun Block

11x14 oil on canvas


This painting is based on one I created on location in Fredericksburg. I wanted to push it in a different direction. Using the palette knife I blocked in colors building up the layers. I built this one square at a time.

Blue Front

 Blue Front  20x16 oil on canvas

This is a house I walk by in my neighborhood. I loved the light and colorful trim and have thought about painting it for a while. I took artistic liberty and planted this garden out front. It is filled with texture and eye popping colors.

Nature Center Garden

Nature Center Garden by Sheri Jones

12x9 oil on linen panel

I had a wonderful opportunity to paint at the Acton Nature Center this week. I was drawn to the wooden arbor and the path leading to it.  The asters, greg's mist, red salvia and many other flowers were in full bloom. They were covered in butterflies. It was a delightful morning spending time in the treasured garden.

Garden Entrance

Garden Entrance

20x16 oil on canvas

My garden continues to inspire new paintings.  It is still blooming brilliant flowers with color bursting out. Being in the quiet of the garden is a happy place.  I created a small study before attempting this larger version. It really helps with color and design.  Where flowers bloom so do hope and happiness.

Garden Light

12x9 oi on canvas panel

This was painted at Chandor Gardens a few years ago.  I brought it out and made a few adjustments recently.  Over time it becomes obvious where changes need to be made for improvement.  Working on this reminded me of the pleasure I get when visiting a blooming garden.

This was created at the Chandor Gardens in Weatherford. I met up with 10 other artist that came out to enjoy the peaceful setting. We were all set up within a safe distance..  We all focused on different subjects and came away with some nice paintings.  It was a joy to be outside creating art with fellow artist.

Waterfall Garden

Waterfall Garden

14x11 oil on canvas

I painted this at Chandor Gardens in Weatherford, Texas. This is a beautiful garden area now owned by the city. The original owner, Douglas Chandor created the gardens over 70 years ago. He was a renowned portrait artist, but his true love was the garden. The city is doing a beautiful job of maintaining and preserving this little bit of heaven. 

.  It was a calming spot in the garden with the sound of the falls splashing.

9x12 oil on gallery wrapped canvas

I continue exploring my series "Flowers Gone Wild". I went with a cooler color palette with this one.  My goal was to abstract the background with shapes inspired from the flowers and leaves.
