Laid Back

This original oil painting is done on linen and is a 5x7 inch portrait of a dog.  Not sure what kind this is, but he was just so relaxed with that laid back ear...had to paint him.  Met him on the way to Bald Head Island on vacation.  He just was so cute when the sun hit his flopped up ear.  If you are interested in this painting please just email me at propstanne@gmail.com.

Madame Tea Party - No longer available

There are likely those of you who know the famous dolls that are often collected.  I was no exception.  I bought these two collectable dolls for my daughter, Alison,  when she was very young and found these two in an old closet and decided to paint them.  They are small so the painting of their faces was a challenge.  The tea cup is an antique that I found in a store in Hendersonville, NC.

This painting is a 9 x 12 inch original oil on linen.

STYLE
The style is my usual impressionist strokes with palette knife painting.

This painting is for sale at my ETSY.

Tangerine Bouquet

I recently completed a self study course from Mark Carder on still life oil painting. I really enjoyed the concepts in realism which I don't often strive for. I enjoy loose impressionism both in my art and in the art of others. But, the Carder method does provide great mixing and drawing technqiues. Here is my painting using this method in oil.

Happy Holidays

This was an experiment that seemed to work. I took simple gatorboard and used pumice mixed with gesso and make a ground with swirls...fun! it was a bit like finger painting. I let it dry and then sketched the ornaments and painted with pastels. The rough background really make it interesting. So, HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
