Lady in Dressed in Blue Gown

Hello today! It’s a beautiful day here in Virginia; I hope your day is going well too.

I am not a portrait artist but I do like to draw and paint people doing interesting things...   I painted this young girl (maybe one of my granddaughters) She is wearing a beautiful blue gown, this is her first date with this young man and they are going out to dinner and dancing. I think she is probably day-dreaming and wondering how her evening is going to turn out. She looks happy here and I’m hopeing that she has a good time. I hope you enjoy this piece of my art work.

Block Stones in Perspective

Hello, I hope this finds you well today.

I sometimes step out side of the box when I paint. So this time when I started to paint I decided that I wanted to try something different than the usual things that I paint like flowers, vegetables, fruit etc.,.  Although I did not use perspective in painting this Block Stones image I will later add a link on how to draw a brick wall in perspective.

This is my painting of Block Stones, I hope you like the painting.

Liquid Lunch Oil Painting

Hello, it is good to see you again. I’m glad to have you visit me and share this beautiful glass of liquid lunch with me.

A while back I was bored and was trying to think of some thing that I wanted to paint.

But instead of painting I decided to take my crystal glasses from the cabinet and clean them, then when I see the light hitting the crystal after it has been cleaned I really think it is beautiful. So this was when I decided that I should fill the glass with a drink and use it for a painting.

 I’m glad to have you visit me and share this beautiful glass of liquid lunch with me.
