Clarkston Garden Walk

CLARKSTON GARDEN WALK

Three acres of amazing beautiful gardens, paths through the woods and statues. Again, I could have picked several places to paint. I chose this spot as you enter the garden. The light shining through  the banana trees and the beautiful blue colors with flowers and the peacock caught my eye. What a peaceful and relaxing spot to paint. This painting is an 8x10" canvas in acrylic. The owner has purchased and in his collection.

Both the Troy and Clarkston garden walks are in July each year if you are interested in them.

 

Troy Garden Walk

 

TROY GARDEN WALK

This is a plein-air painting that I created during the Troy garden walk. I also worked on it at home as I can't get all that done in one day. As I walked around all the landscape and lovely flowers, it took me a little bit to decide just where to paint. It turns out the spot that spoke to me was one of the home owners favorite. I also love how they incorporated some old iron pieces among the landscaping. The little statue of is painted in memory of Jack. This painting is 16x16" in Acrylic on canvas. Purchased and in collection by he homeowner.

Mare & Colt

This is a large painting on canvas. 36"x 48". Mare and Foal. Notice this beautiful copper color Palomino mare with all the dappling throughout her body. That made the painting a little more time consuming considering my realism work. Yes, a Palomino horse can produce a Paint foal. Interesting isn't it.

This painting is in the home of a private collector. I am very thankful for those that love my work.

Christmas Wreath

 

I decided to paint this wreath to share the Christmas spirit with you and the meaning of the wreath. This painting is in watercolor.

The wreath for Christmas is usually constructed with evergreens; in this painting , white pine to represent everlasting life brought through Jesus. The pine trees stay green and beautiful all year long.

 The circular shape represents God, with no beginning and end. Maybe you will see other meaningful parts to this wreath.

Merry Christmas to all and Thank You for following my work. Love to read your comments.

Trigger & Porkchop

TRIGGER AND PORKCHOP

This is one of my latest paintings.  Do you know personalities? Which one is the quiet and in control or shall I say boss? Which one is the busy body, always wanting you to throw the ball, and if you don't have his ball he will bring you a rock?

This painting is in acrylic on a 16x20" canvas going to a special home.

2021 Garden walk

Troy Garden Walk

As a guest artist, I enjoyed doing this plein-air painting of the beautiful peaceful garden with white flowers. Each year in August the Troy Garden Club puts on a Garden Tour that people love to go on. I will send out a text to let all know ahead of time next year.

This painting is in water color and is now a  private collection.

Thank you
