Floral Still Life, "The Beauty of Life" 8x6"

Time for another of my small floral still life paintings.  The title of the painting is a reminder that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

$96 + 10

The flowers loosely represented are hydrangea, goldenrod and Queen Ann's Lace.  To many the goldenrod and Queen Ann's lace are weeds.  To me, they were just the thing to brighten up my little display of hydrangea blossoms.

Here's hoping you have a weekend full of unexpected beauty and joy.

How else to bring warmth, sunshine and cheeriness into your life?

I bought these magnificent 24inch tulips at the Maymont Herbs Galore festival last Saturday. They come from a place called EcoTulips in Brightwood VA. Just the most elegant and graceful flower to behold. More paintings of them will follow.

Rose Garden by Pam Holnback

Rose Garden
6" x 8" Oil
$100.00 + $10. s/h

This piece is from earlier this summer.  Just now realized that I'd never posted it.  My plein air group, Garden Artists, painted in the most beautiful garden that day.  I love the way the light and shadows created a pattern on the fence.

Still Life: A Sunny Disposition by Cathyann Burgess

A Sunny Disposition©2011 C.L.Burgess oil 6x6 oil on board

After returning from seeing my best girlfriend, who lives in State College, PA I feel a rush of warmth. So what better way to express days well spent in the sunshine of friendship, in spite of the gray weather of the mountains that surrounded us during my stay.

On the way to lunch, we saw a field of sunflowers, boldly presenting their sunny faces against the steel blue, cold sky.  A Cheers to us! from nature.
We made our own sunshine. This is my impression.

These geraniums were so much fun to paint.  We have 5 big pots of them in the corner of our deck.  I sat in the shade (part of the deck is covered) and painted away.  We all have tubes of paint that we rarely use, maybe from past workshops, or given to us by someone sometime.  I have a tube of red paint called "Geranium Lake".  I have no idea where I got it, but I used it in this piece. And, the reds work!

We have quite a few varieties of pink flowers in our back yard throughout the summer. These vine roses (I'm sure that there is a real name!)  are now gone, but looked beautiful while they lasted.

Those of you who follow my blog know that I love to paint series.  I often paint three of something.  It helps me see the colors, values, simplify shapes.  Since we have so many coreopsis in our back yard, I just keep moving around and seeing another great shape just waiting to be painted!

A Second Coreopsis

With this coreopsis, I used the purple complement for most of the dark and shadows, with touches of cad orange.  This darkens by graying a bit, and the effect is not as cool as the previous painting.

This morning my plein air group painted at a home with a magnificent garden.  Every square inch of the yard has been turned into growing space for herbs, vegetables and flowers.  It was magnificent!  And, the freshly baked rhubarb pie was delicious!  Thank you Natalya.
