This 10x8" plein air work of the "Governor's Mansion Fountain" was painted during the Denver Plein Air Arts Festival in the Colorado Governor's mansion gardens. It was a beautiful warm fall Colorado day and I was enjoying the camaraderie of painting with other wonderful Colorado artists.
"Late Summer Harvest" is a 36x36" work painted from life. The sunflowers are from John's yard, he brought them in one day along with incredible Colorado Western Slope peaches which I used in my still life then promptly ate after I painted them! Delicious!
Some new oil paintings I have been painting this summer. Mountain Bluebird was the last painting I finished for my two person show at Evergreen Fine Art in July.
Tranquil Path was from a lovely hike I did this summer. I love Colorado summers!
Dalmation Coast Fishing Village is from my European travels this past June.
Next is Tini Time Too! Self explanatory!
Thomas & Grace is a commission.
The first three paintings are from my trip to the mountains to photograph a view for a commission near Vail, Colorado and I ended up taking almost 300 pictures and have enjoyed painting many views and subjects from that day.
The last "Dalmation Coast Fishing Village" is from my European trip this summer with my family. We visited a small village south of Dubrovnik that was such a visual treat for an artist!
These 2 paintings are featured in the Nomadas del Arte Show in Santa Fe March 7 and 8th through the end of March in the Sage Creek Gallery
