A Rose is a Rose  Oil on canvas 8 x 8" unframed $100.00


This is a miniature rose which I enlarged. I painted it because I liked the colour and value changes and also because I found it a real challenge to depict the petals.

Lighthouse Cape Spear Newfoundland

Lighthouse Cape Spear Nfld. 8 x 8" oil on canvas $125.00


I painted this painting as a reminder of a trip to Newfoundland a few years ago. Cape Spear is the farthest point east in the Atlantic ocean of Canada. It is a sight to behold. As I took the photo, a fishing boat happened to appear on the right, which was a bonus.

Pansies

Pansies 8 x 8" oil on board $100


I just bought these pansies from the nursery down the road so I thought I had better paint them before I planted them.
They have such saucy looking faces and don't mind the cooler weather.

60th Bouquet

60th Bouquet  10" x 8" watercolor  $125 unmatted


I have painted in watercolor most of my art career, until about 8 years ago when I started painting in acrylics. So just now I am refreshing my watercolors. I did this painting from a picture I took of the flowers from our sixtieth anniversary which was two years ago. I wanted to combine soft and hard edges and give he essence of the flowers.

Peppers

Peppers  acrylic 8" x 8" on gessoboard  $100


Peppers are such fun to paint. Their shiny texture and beautiful colors make your heart sing. I thought the acorn squash was a foil to make them look even more delicious.

Winter 2015

Winter 2015  Pastel 8" x 10"  $125
This painting was done in January from a sketch I made from the window. I painted it in watercolor first and then added pastel. Glad to see the snow is all gone. But there is something about winter that is very beautiful. The contrast of light and dark.

Still Life with Pear

Still Life with Pear  acrylic 10 x 8" on board
I love the color of the bottle, which goes from gold to magenta. It holds a peacock feather which I couldn't get in. because of its height
