flower study

6" x 8" oil on wood panel | sold


This began as a tonal study, but the bloom of this wild flower/weed was so beautiful that I added a little color. It's amazing how they seem undaunted by the drought. A delicate, yet unwavering spirit.

Thunder, lightning but only a few sprinkles...at least it cooled off.

Conspiring Lemons

6" x 6" oil on wood panel | sold


Taking a painter's workshop from Carol Marine is a life-altering experience and I thank her and our incredible class for inspiring me to blog.
The lemons spoke to me and to themselves...
