A Spring Preview

This time of year it is hard not to notice the shy spring colors that are giving us a preview of what is to come. The color in this painting reflects that preview. Although our grass isn't a carpet of green yet, there are little patches of green popping up here and there. Also, the golden jonquils outside my bedroom window are show stoppers...as is this little barn. You can purchase the painting tomorrow on DailyPaintworks.

Shades of Spring

This little 4 x 4 is of a utility shed that was originally red, but the hot sun has faded it to pink over the years. I think a pink utility shed is a great idea and you really notice it as you drive by. Maybe utility shed manufacturers should consider some luscious new colors instead of the usual reds, browns, tans, and greens etc. This painting is for sale on Daily Paintworks.

The Large and the Small


I'm posting a painting that is in my Governor's Gallery show (the large), and a painting that I recently put on Daily Paintworks (the small). These little 4" x 4" images are great fun to do.
