"Lavender Dahlia"

“Lavender Dahlia” , this is a Small painting, 6″x 8″, oil on canvas panel. This painting has SOLD.

This is a study for a commission I am working on. I like to push the colors in one direction or another. I like this direction, but maybe it’s not right for the commissioned piece. Luckily, the person doing the commissioning will never look at these note here…

"Spring Morning"

“Spring Morning” , this is a Small painting, 6″x 8″, oil on canvas panel. $750.00 USD

For the last two days, when first I’ve walked into my studio I have smelled a most delicious, almost citrous odor. Couldn’t figure out what it was nor where it was coming from. This evening I went out to pick a wild flower bouquet to paint. As I was arranging it and turning on the still life spot lights to prepare to paint, I found the iris bud I had painted 2 days ago totally open in its full splendor. That is what had wafted out that wonderful scent and I knew I had to paint it now…

"First Iris"

“First Iris”, this is a Small painting, 6″x 8″, oil on canvas panel. $750.00 USD

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, my iris I transplanted from an elder friend’s house last spring have started to bloom. I had no idea what color they were when I dug them up and am happy to find them white. The 50 mph winds beat up the first bloom pretty badly. So this is really the 2nd. Maybe that is the reason I found no flower beds planted here…

I bought these Lilies a few days ago. They have been knocking me out with their delicious scent at night in my studio. Finally had to paint them so I can enjoy them back in the house. I assume they are some type of Stargazer hybrid as some buds only reach straight up and others open forward or down. They are not white as is usual, but a nice subdued creamy white…

"2009 Self Portrait"

“2009 Self Portrait”, this is a Small painting, 8″x 6″, oil on canvas panel. $750.00 US

After an uneventful drive back to Texas (I photo-documented it on my Face Book page), I found myself back on the ranch with just oodles of mouse turds all over the house. The nice ladies at my local phone/DSL company put my account on hold when I asked them to turn it off of vacation and on. They got tired of hearing from me after 8 phone calls and just turned on the internet today a week later. I thought it appropriate to do a self portrait for my first Texas piece of the new year. I will be driving to West Texas to paint for the next few days and might not be able to get internet each day. But I will try…

This was a hard one to capture, as snow was still falling when I went out. I did some work in the car and finished up in the studio…
