Still Life with Fruit

It has been so long since I have done a still life. I am so used to doing the bright children on the beach and I had some paint left over so I decided to do two small still life paintings. I really enjoyed it. I especially love the yellow craduating to a deep crimson red as it gets darker. There is nothing prettier to me.

Playing in the Sand

This was one of my favorite commissions. I just loved the colors in the bathing suits and it was such a beautiful composition. This was a Christmas present for her husband and I loved doing it.

Siblings

18 x 24 oil on canvas sold

For Christmas I wanted to paint a special painting of the kids for my Christmas card. I painted this painting at the Maitland Art Center by the little pond. Lila was so small I actually had to bring her home and snap some pictures of her in the yard and then paint her in. She definately would have jumped in.

McKenna

11 x 14 oil on canvas sold

This is one of the first portraits that I have done. I loved doing McKenna because she first is beautiful but I love her hair and her coloring. Her mother took some pictures for me and she just hit the nail on the head with one. I was so happy with the way it turned out.

The Picnic

One of my best friends and I happened to have babies one week apart (not planned). We got together for her middle child's birthday party and I caught this picture of them. They just looked so sweet, I had to paint it. Lila will cherish this forever!!!

Park Plaza Gardens $200.00
9 x 12 framed oil on canvas

This summer I ventured out on Park Avenue to take pictures of Winter Park scenes to paint. We are so lucky to live in this beautiful little town and I can't believe it took me so long. This was one of my first in this series and was a painting that was selected to be in the Crealde School of Art show.

5 x 5 oil on canvas $45.00

After visiting South Carolina I could not wait to paint this little painting. It was one of the first abstract paintings that I have done and it was so fun to not think about any rules. I could just be in the moment.

Day at New Smyrna Beach

8 x 10 oil on canvas $85.00

This was one of those days when everything was perfect. School was almost out and the children were so excited. The weather was just right and the tide was low enough for the kids to go out forever and still only come up to there knees.

After I completed this painting with thick paint it still needed a little edge so I used the palette knife. Loved it.
