Pink Peonies In A Jar


This is a 9" x 12" oil on masonite
painted in the studio from life in a
demo session. Yet another floral, which
is a lot of fun to paint when working
on technique or color mixing. Staying
loose is sometimes a problem with me
but flowers make it easier.

Philbrook Museum Pond


This was painted two weeks ago on the grounds
of the Philbrook Museum in Tulsa, in the garden.
For those familiar with the location, this was one
of the small coy ponds east of the main building,
looking southwest towards the south lawn. It's
acrylic and oil, 9" x 12" on canvas.

Sedan Lakeside Road


This was painted while on a retreat to
Sedan, Kansas about a month ago. The
mornings were starting to get a little cooler
and the air was crisper. It's a very
pleasant location to get away from it all.
It's oil on masonite, 9" x 12".

Roses In Red And Yellow


Another still life in oils on gessoed masonite.
8" x 10". I'm painting a number of these florals this
size for the OSI show in Tulsa at the Garden Center
on the 23rd of October. Hopefully, a few people will
take some of these home.

Crepe Myrtle Still Life


Earlier this year, a car jumped the curb by our house
and flipped up and landed on a large crepe myrtle alongside
the house, keeping the car from crashing into our living
room. Thankful that the poor plant saved the living room
but sorry to see it destroyed...or so I thought.
This still life contains blossoms from the new sprouted
plant that has arisen in it's place. Those are tough plants.
This is 8" x 10", oil on gessoed masonite.
