Autumn Paintings

These paintings plus many more were featured in the St. James Court Art Fair in Louisville this past weekend. The show was a success, thanks to the many who came out to purchase art! Nine paintings were sold to happy collectors!

"Fly Fishing", pastel, 16x12, $900.

"Autumn's Beauty", pastel, 18x12, $875.

"October Morning", pastel, 18x24, $1500.

A classic October day with a soft sky, blazing red maples, and pumpkins left in the field.

"Pasture" in pastel

"August Pasture", pastel, 18x24 SOLD

A new studio painting based on the plein air study I did in August, north of Bellaire.  I added the hay bale and cows to this painting, just to give more life to the scene.
This painting will be shown at the Saint James Court Art Fair in Louisville, KY, the first weekend of October.

Peach Harvest

"Peach and Two Plums", oil, 5x7

"German Plums", oil, 6x6 SOLD

The peach harvest has been very good this year in west Michigan. I just can't seem to stop buying them, they taste so good! Some have made their way into my recent still lifes along with the dark prune plums. I love those shapes! Call me crazy, but I love painting these intimate settings and just can't seem to stop, with more and more ideas. I think I should move on to tomatoes, or peppers, or beets, or....

"Fresh Picked" , oil, 6x6 SOLD

These new paintings will be on display at the Saint James Court Show in Louisville, KY, the first weekend in October.

New Pastel Paintings

The St. James Court Show is next week and I have been very busy getting new work ready to exhibit. My goal is to bring at least a dozen new pieces to add to my inventory. I am also bringing a few plein air oils to show on the outside of the booth if the weather is permitting. So the next few days I will be blogging my new work as a preview of what will be at the show. Hope to see you there!
