Artichoke Half

Oil

16 x 20

Purchase Information

What does one do with excess paint on one's palette?  Use it in a colorful way, of course!

One of my favorite vegetables is the artichoke.  Whenever I've cut one in half, I've always been awed by the amazing formations within--the leaves, the choke, and the delicate heart--all nestled along a vertical axis.  It is truly stunning.  Thus, this painting attempts to celebrate the innate beauty of this delicious thistle in a vibrant way.  Mmmmmmmmmm.

Miniature Painting - Red Onion

Acrylic on Bristol Series 300

2.5 x 3.5

SOLD

Okay, I have a thing for onions.  I actually rummage through the bins at the grocery store looking for tattered models; onlookers must think I am insane.

Red Onion

I adore painting onions. This is my first attempt using oils. The amazing part? I like the background. No fiddling with this one!

Red Onion

Acrylic on Panel - 6x6 - $75 - contact artist

I adore the background of this onion (the second attempt in the subject's existence). It has a "Tuscan" feel to it. More effort, but worth the results.

Red Jalapeno

Acrylic on Masonite, 6x6--$75- Click to purchase

Chile peppers rule in Texas. I especially like the background on this--Until recently, I often painted a horizontal line in the picture to indicate a table edge and background. Now, I am painting gradations from dark to light. It is more of a challenge, but also more enjoyable when I "get it right."

Red Onion

Each time I buy a red onion, my husband decides to eat it before I have a chance to paint. I hid this one for a day in my studio. (Watch it rot in the bin, now that I don't need it anymore!)
