Along the Auglaize...

This is the first oil painting I did in the workshop with Chris Leeper.  It is a scene along the Auglaize River near Wapakoneta, Ohio.  The painting is 9" x 12" and is painted on a canvas panel.

Rainy Afternoon at Provico

Tonight I finished this plein air painting that I started last Friday while plein air painting with Michelle Walker and Chris Leeper at Provico in Botkins, Ohio.  It was a misty, cold, rainy day and I tried to capture that feeling in this painting.  The painting is 9" x 12" and is painted on a canvas panel.  It was such a privilige painting with Chris Leeper.

Happy White Rabbit

This is todays daily creation - a small oil painting 6" x 6" painted on a canvas panel. Michelle brought the ceramic rabbit and the material to our painting group today and I provided the old enamel pitcher.  What fun!

Little Green Apples

This still life is 8" x 10" and is painted on a canvas panel in oils.  These are 2 beautiful apples - so shiny and lucious looking.

Still Life Under the Influence

Well, I wasn't going to paint today since I was planning to help take-in paintings at the Riverside Arts Center. After our snow yesterday and the winds expected last night, I really didn't want to drive through snow drifts! So - I e-mailed that I couldn't come and stayed home today. Early this a.m. my friend Michelle called and asked if I wanted to paint this afternoon (the snow drifts don't scare her!) - so....we set up a still life and painted. During our session, my husband made us Irish Coffee - hence the reference to painting "under the influence." :)

This painting is an oil painted on a 9" x 12" canvas panel

Along the Marietta Riverwalk

This is the oil painting I started en plein air in Marietta last month. It has taken me some time to get back to it and to do the final tweaking of details. What a lovely afternoon painting and visiting with my beautiful granddaughter, Jenny, who is a senior at Marietta College. The weather was perfect and the light divine. The painting is 11"x14" and is painted on a canvas panel.

MEYER'S BARN

I painted this barn one crisp afternoon with Ashley, the cat, in my face and my lap.  Wonderful, affectionate cat.  The painting is 9" x 12" and is painted on a canvas panel.
