Baby girl painting

Image
My friend and I threw an Anne of Green Gables themed baby shower for a sweet friend of ours and I painted this for her girls room.  This painting is of a scene from the Anne of Green Gables movie.   This painting is a lot different then my usual subject matter, but I enjoyed painting it and most of all I am glad that it worked well for the room. One thing this painting brought to my attention is I need to continue to practice painting landscapes so I can get better at them.   Here is a picture of the painting in the room, I love how it looks with the color of the wall and the lighting is better in this picture. If you are interested in having a painting done for you or for a gift please contact me. I am reasonably priced and can work within your budget to make a great painting for whatever you may need.

Critique of Southern Collectors Paintings

Having to complete these paintings so quickly having her help was essential in getting the works done. I was  asked by the Thomasville Center for the Arts to complete this project.

Most of the Southern collectors they know very well and some of the women I am working with are actually collectors themselves. While the Center is not commissioning me to paint these p

Anne and flowers

Image
I recently painted a series inspired by Anne of Green Gables. A buyer from out of state commissioned these after finding this very blog and seeing my previous work. She has commissioned  five additional compositions containing scenes from the book. I painted the work twice.  I am too appalled by the first one I made to show it to you. Let it be said that it is just horrible and I am glad I started over. Thankfully the other paintings started better than this one.   Close up of face Detail of the flowers  I am very happy with how the finished piece turned out and I am excited to be working on the rest of these paintings. I love this book so much, it makes me want to get the book out and get reading (when I should probably be painting!).
