Thanks for looking! This is my Daily Paintworks Cropping Challenge.     6″ X 6″ unframed $45.00. The colors you see on the screen may not be an exact match to the original, but I think they are pretty close.

This is a painting I did for my Cousin Shae of her canning.  She raised the vegetables herself.  Of course its not for sale.  This was all done free hand, and was very time consuming.  Its not something I would normally do because of that.  It took weeks to finish.  For a close up click on the pictures.  Below are cropped areas of the same painting.

Trying to paint with limited strokes is not easy for someone who tends to get too detailed.  This was an apple challenge.

Not having done any painting, I was about to go to bed when I decided to use some left over paint from yesterday and spend only 30 minutes on a painting.

I paid ten cents more per pound for white onions simply because they looked so white and pristine.  I decided they would be a subject for a still life. $45.00  Contact Me to purchase.

I found three pears in the refrigerator and set them on my printer and just started painting with a bigger brush than I needed. I did not like the painting at first, and almost decided to smear it out and start over, but I finally got it to where I decided to keep it.

Black Hole is a favorite fishing and swimming hole in Baca County. Thanks to Carol Marine, I had better success photographing this painting by taking it outside in the shade on the north side of my studio.  I found the perfect place to set it on a window sill. It was a bit too blue, so I balanced the color to match its true color.  If you click on the image above you can see it in the largest format possible.   Below is the same picture taken yesterday indoors under poor lighting.  You can click on it to see the large format too. Thanks Carol for your help!

I wanted to paint something white and found this bar of soap in a dish.  I painted it from life, then I thought it needed something else so I added the toothbrush.  For some reason, after I finished it,  I thought of something my mother used to always say to me when I said a curse word. .  ”Go wash your mouth out with soap.”  I thought of that for the title of the painting, but decided against it.

The Parade
Oil on 6″ X 6″  Raymar canvas board

$45.00

About the painting:    In Springfield we have a parade every year during the county fair.  It goes right down my street. I find the people watching the parade to be more interesting than the parade itself.  This woman was across the street from where I lived and she was all ready to enjoy the parade.
