"Pomegranate" Oil on 6x6 gessobord






I  painted this pomegranate a couple of weeks ago, and set it aside.  I wasn't sure about the blue/green background, but looking at it now, I like it.   I finally got a chance to paint something new today, I'll be posting it as soon as I get a chance to take a picture of it.

♥ Merry Christmas ♥


I did this painting last year at this time, and it's one of my favorites.  I'm posting it because I haven't been able to paint anything new lately, as I was unexpectedly ill all last week, and this week I have been trying to catch up on Christmas shopping and things. Hopefully after the holiday I will be able to get some new paintings done.  I just wanted to keep in touch and  I wish you all a safe and happy holiday season!  Enjoy!!

"Tea Cup with Holly" Oil on 5x7 board











I've been in the mood to paint something festive.  I haven't had as much time as I'd like to paint lately, but I was happy to get this one done.  As soon as I set it up, I couldn't wait to paint it, it just looked so pretty.

Thank you for the comments!

"Bosc Pears" Oil on 5x7 board





These bosc pears have an elegant shape that attracted me to paint them.  But, I thought the color might be kind of boring to paint, but, not at all.. it's really a very nice warm golden brown.

"Autumn Still Life with Pine Cone" Oil on 5x7 hardboard




I thought I'd try one more painting of one of these little pumpkins.  I added a pine cone I found outside, and some mixed nuts and cranberries.   I thought it made a nice little autumn still life.
