I will be starting a new series of Butterfly paintings.  I am going to be painting them on 5x5 deep edge canvas's.  I am hoping to have a variety of different designs. These little paintings are distractions from my commission pieces.  Sometimes you need distractions from working on another project. 

   Here are 2 of my Butterfly Paintings.  They are painted with acrylic paint on 4x4 deep edge canvas.

          I am reposting some of my paintings for 2 reasons.  One is to remind myself how to post on my webpage.  2nd to change my post from the last time I posted anything on this site.  I would love to start receiving comments from my visitors.  I would love to hear from everyone what they like about my artwork.  What type of painting would interest them!!!

                                                           
                                                              Quackers and Water
I entered this painting in two art shows in 2014 and it did quite well.  It won second place in the AAMC art show and won 3rd place in the CAL art show.

                                                                River Reflections
I won third place with this painting.  I entered it in a small art show.   I did really well in 2014.

Leopard

I don't have a name for my leopard but I enjoyed drawing him.  I used colored pencils because I can produce a lot more detail.  I enjoy producing pictures with pencils.  I started out with pencil to produce art and I find myself going back to it when ever I get bored or tired of painting.  Its my first love when it comes to my artwork.

                                                                Feathered Friends

I just love these two parakeets.  I used one of my own photo's that I took at the Knoxville Zoo.  I used colored pencils to create the picture. I enjoyed the end result and I am thinking of reproducing these two again in either acrylic or oil paints. If I do reproduce these 2 feathered friends I will let you all see it in the next chosen medium.  

                                                            Stormy Sun Rise

This painting I used one of my photos of Flagler Beach as my reference.  We drove down to the beach to get sunrise pictures and the sky was covered with stormy clouds. The sun was breaking through the clouds and I had snapped a lot of photo's and I just loved this one.
