10. Three Selfies

"Three Selfies"

8 x 10 Inches

Oil on Gesso Board

When I started this painting I had decided to name it "Tis the Season". Once I finished it 

I couldn't resist naming it "Three Selfies" instead... for reasons obvious to the viewer I hope!

My first self-portrait(s).

9. Shades of White

"Shades of White"

8 x 8 Inches

Oil on Gesso Board

I enjoy painting white objects and I especially enjoy painting paper bags. When I saw the light hitting this bag and creating those beautiful long, loose shadows, I just had to paint it! This was really fun to paint, it was one of those paintings that just painted itself - gotta enjoy that! Happy Thanksgiving everyone, I hope you all get to enjoy time with friends, family and loved ones.

8. Inner Glow

"Inner Glow"

12 x 12 Inches

Oil on Gesso Board

Funny how things are, I thought the rose would be the more 

difficult part for me. It was the rose that flowed a bit more easily and the jar caused 

me some strife. Art imitating life, what you think is going to be easy is not and what 

you think may be difficult is a bit easier than you thought it would be!

7. Chocolate Granny

"Chocolate Granny"

7 x 5 Inches

Oil on Gesso Board

This proved to be a bit tricky as the chocolate on the apple started to melt 

within minutes of starting the painting! The lighting I use to light my sill life set-ups can 

get quite hot so I had to improvise at the end and paint from memory.

6. Just the Top

"Just the Top"

8 x 10 Inches

Oil on Gesso Board

This is actually a tall container for drinking straws that I keep on my kitchen counter. 

It has a really interesting design along the bottom but I was more intrigued by the 

shiny top which is why I painted "just the top" of the container. I don't actually use it for straws, 

I just think it's a really pretty container and I like how it catches the light.

4. Ben's Tomatoes

"Ben's Tomatoes"

8 x 8 Inches

Oil on Gesso Board

There's nothing quite like home grown tomatoes for the best flavor. 

These lovely tomatoes turned into a delicious bruschetta, probably the last of the season 

as we had our first fall rain yesterday.

#3 Lemon and Its Shadow

"Lemon and Its Shadow"

8 x 10 Inches

Oil on Gesso Board

This is one of the same lemons used in my last Daily Painting. I wanted to try 

painting the lemon under different lighting conditions. I liked this slightly backlit effect. 

I was also intrigued by the subtle changes in the leaf color since 

finishing the last painting, it was turning into a more "olive" shade of green.

#2 My Neighbors Bounty

"My Neighbors Bounty"

8 x 10 Inches

Oil on Gesso Board

A sincere thank you to my generous neighbor who allows me to harvest

 from his lovely lemon tree. Part of this tree hangs over our fence and it's fruit has provided 

us with lots of refreshing lemonade during our hot summers, along with lemon cookies, 

lemon pound cake and even lemon chicken. Thank you neighbor!

"Here I Go"

10 x 10 inches

I'm diving into the world of Daily Painting ..... thus the title of my first Daily Painting.

I love these little take out boxes I found in my local crafts store. They're available in all sorts of bright colors, pastels and more. I'm sure you'll be seeing more of these in the future.
