Full Bloom


This has been hanging around the studio for some time.  It just needed a little work to complete, so I finally dragged out my oils and finished it.  I put it in a black drop-in frame which provides a nice contrast to the colourful roses.

This is a 16x16" oil painting on stretched canvas.

Happy Daze


And a daze is what I'm in...we've been staining the sundeck and parts of the house for the last two weeks.  Not as much fun as painting on canvas, and I'll be a happy camper when we're done.  So, keeping it simple with daisies.

This is a 10"x10" acrylic on deep canvas.  $135.00  SOLD

First of the Season


Daisies have to be my favourite flowers to paint.  They don't make demands like roses do, no thorns to sting you, and they're just plain cheerful!  And who doesn't love strawberries?  SOLD

This is acrylic on a 9x12 stretched canvas.

Asian Influence


Finally finished this dahlia painting.  I used my favorite Oriental vase - I've used it a number of times in paintings.  And the fact that I paid $5.00 at a sidewalk sale, makes it even better!

This is 24"x24" on deep canvas.  $600.00  SOLD

Shadow Play


These terracotta pots were fun to paint.  The shadows are a bit deeper in the painting.  I couldn't quite match the colour in my program, but you get the idea.  It reminds me of a hot summer day, with a bit of green relief. SOLD

Lilac Wine


Lilacs are another of my favorite flowers.  I've been listening to the new Susan Boyle CD, and there's a lovely version of  'Lilac Wine'...hence, the title.

Ring In Spring


Finally got all the paintings together for the new show that starts tomorrow.  Now I can concentrate on some of the larger paintings I've been itching to paint.

Garden Delights


Another painting of my favourite flowers - roses.  Amazing how something so pretty can actually be quite vicious.  I had a neighbour once who said she would take clippers and cut every single thorn from her rose bushes.  I can't imagine how long that would have taken her.  Think I'd rather take my chances with the thorns!

Don't Eat The Daisies


Daisies are such carefree flowers.  I've got scads in the yard because they seem to pop up everywhere.
