Into the Woods, Pastel, 19x14" $350

This is a scene from my office window of the path that my husband mows for easy access into the woods. It tickles me to watch turkeys strut down this path or the deer promenade from out of the woods. I painted this primarily plein air and did some touch up from photo reference in my studio.

Fall Splendor, Acrylic, 10x8" SOLD

"All good things come to those that wait". Had this little piece in our local Manchester gallery, The Wild Acorn, for what seemed forever. I got the call today while in my Open Figure Studio in Tecumseh, that my piece had sold. This scene is from one of my husband and mine's many forays into northern Michigan.

Linda, Oil, 12x9" $100

Linda was our model today at Open Figure Studio. She is fantastic and doesn't move a bit. At break time she  once again becomes her usual bubbly personality! Linda is a wonderful artist in her own right and I am proud to say that she has been one of my many students.

Headed Toward the Light, Oil on RayMar panel, 6 x 6" $100

I painted this along with another companion piece, ironically about a week or so before the latest German Landscape Challenge. I say that because of the 'road' theme.

My husband and I were hiking the hills outside of Cambria, California where the reference for this piece was taken. The central coast is one of our favorite places. It wasn't too far up the road and we were greeted by a pair of peacocks. They are beautiful, but make the most awful, loud cry. I believe peacocks make great 'watch dogs' and are quick to sound an alert if they see or hear anything out of the ordinary. I think they can wake the dead!
