New Paintings

These are my latest paintings. The first one is a still life of Roses in a glass jar. The second one is something I like to do from time to time. I enjoy looking at vintage photos and then paint my impressions of them. Of course they are all black and white, so that gives me the liberty of guessing the colors. This one is my Aunt Judy on her honeymoon in 1957. They stayed in a cabin at the Lake of the Ozarks. The bumper sticker indicates that they visit Marvel Cave on their trip. I asked her what color the 1950 Ford was, and it was indeed white. Unfortunately, it was stolen a few weeks later when they moved to Norfolk, Virginia where my Uncle Dave shipped out as a Navy man. The still life is available on my Ebay auction. The link is at the top of this page.

This is my first painting of the new year. It is not for sale, it is my attempt at an impressionist style painting of my three grown children. Below is the photograph I looked at to paint this picture. I took some time off to enjoy the holidays with friends and family and plan to get back into painting my folk art really soon! I wish everyone a wonderful new year~
