"Happy Hour at O'Kelly's"

12"x24" Oil on Gallery Wrapped Canvas

This painting was inspired by a visit to Montano's Restaurant.  The  array behind the bar just called out to me to be painted.  Well, that's not quite true 😅 actually my artist friend that was with me told me I needed to paint this😬 This was by far the most challenging piece I have ever attempted.  It was a big learning experience though.  But for a while I think I'll take a break from still life artwork!

I EAR You!

10"x8" Oil on Canvas

So, I guess I must admit donkey's are up there pretty close to the top of my favorite animal to paint.  Some of them just have the cutest faces, so much personality!

Spring Has Sprung

 12"x9"

Oil on Canvas

While flowers are not my chosen image to paint, these tulips just caught my eye with the way the light was shining on them.  And here in Virginia, spring has certainly not sprung.  It is a balmy 20 degrees as I post this; however, next week we are promised more spring like temperatures.
