all that glistens

Inspired by metallic gold paint that I have been using on my fall gourds, the base layer of this painting is actually metallic gold. I love when one thing inspires another, when you listen! Not sure my photo does it justice...can you actually see the metallic? Wishing you a magical day! This original, 6"x6" oil painting is available, unframed, for $85.

on the lookout

Always on the lookout for a great day. I read a forbes article about the morning routines of 12 women leaders. Fun read. Guess if I want to keep painting in my morning routine I will need to get up a bit earlier to fit in yoga and a much healthier breakfast than I squeeze in now. Hope you have a wonderful day! This painting is available for $75, unframed.

no. 6

Perhaps it's all the shoulds that we carry around with us, everywhere we go, that are the problem. I should be doing this (other more important thing) right now instead of whatever I am actually doing. I know I am supposed to appreciate being "in the moment" instead of thinking about what I should be doing next. That's why I love painting, it's just a moment in time, although usually fleeting and brief, when I forget about all of my shoulds…

calm

Being near the ocean is so calming. I had a lot of fun playing with texture on this painting. I've also been trying to paint a bit larger…this is a commissioned piece. SOLD
