Title: “Actual Size”

This painting was fun because my challenge was to paint it actual size. Every house should have at least one of these.

Dimensions: 6″x6″

Sometimes you come across a piece of fruit that deserves to be honored. This apple looked perfect to me, so I put it on a block to display it properly.

Title: “Glistening White”
Dimensions: 7″x5″
Medium: Oil

This painting was interesting to do – nearly monochromatic, but not quite. There are some parts that are semi-transparent and other parts which are opaque. Reflections are always fun to do.

Title: “Queen Anne’s Lace”
Dimensions: 10″x8″
Medium: Oil

These flowers grow wild along the street where I live. I spend a lot of time in my studio and like to take a break by going for a walk and looking at the wild flowers and weeds. Some of them are beautiful. These were small enough to fit into a crystal salt shaker. I just left the top off and made a mini vase out of it.

Title: “2D-3D-2D”
Dimensions: 6″x6″
Medium: Oil

This is known as a Greek Football (soccer for Americans). Anyway, it’s made by weaving strips of construction paper.

This painting was completed with only red, white, blue and black colors.

I was exploring the concept of taking something two dimensional (paper) and making a three dimensional form with it (the football) and then painting on a two dimensional surface (gessoed board) so it looks three dimensional. It sounds circuitous but interesting none the less.

I’ve done this before with origami cranes, but this shape warrants a little more exploration.
