Deep Pink – Iris Painting

on

This is the third floral painting I’ve completed recently.  I think I should start a few more… 

This is another painting that was inspired from the Minnesota Arboretum.  I loved touring the grounds there.

In the evening during our last visit (last spring), there was a group of plein aire oil painters setting up to work.  Some of them had half of the gardens painted  on their canvases by the time I was leaving the grounds.  It would have been quite an experience to have joined them. :D

Little Rabbit

This is a little rabbit painting that was finished recently – watercolor on board (approx. 6×6).  It is currently on display at Moosehorn Gallery in Livingston, Montana.

The studio remains busy with dozens of paintings in the final stages that will hopefully be completed soon. :D
