Jerry's Roses

Not For Sale

11"x14" Oil on stretched canvas.

I finished this painting on August 19, 2012.  Since then, much has happened to keep me away from my easel.   Life happens, doesn't it?  Getting back on the painting track, I look at this painting and wonder if the silver pot being so close to the center is a problem . . . among other painting transgressions I may have committed!  I am submitting this on the "Critique Me Challenge" on Daily Paintworks for some help from other artists.

Polkas-Dots and Petunias

6"x6" oil on stretched canvas.  $100

-- The Daily Paintworks challenge this week involves Polka-Dots. This is a mug, made and given to me by a friend, for my latest birthday that ends in zero, four and a half years ago! Petunias are not as easy to paint as polka-dots, but they are just as fun.

"Copper and Zinnias"

Oil on 12" x 9"" stretched canvas.

I guess all still life painters become collectors. I was delighted to find this little copper watering can at Blue Moon Antiques in Pensacola. It is a smaller, slightly different version of the watering can featured in the first painting of my blog. I just love painting copper!
