Flight

        Maybe I should have called it Primary Colors. I think Flight works better.
        I love how dark the horses get in the winter especially against the cool colors of winter.
       Hope everyone likes her!

Tiger

I was inspired last week. I visited the Zoo (Omaha Henry Doorly Zoo ) and took a lot of photos. I love the big cats. Haven't painted one in a while but I couldn't wait to get home and paint him. Hope everyone likes it! I did a sketch first before the painting. Thought I'd include it in the pictures.

Autumn Wind

                             The grasses out here turn yellow when autumn comes.
                            The horses turn into a rich dark color. Pretty soon winter
                            will be here.

                              I tried to show you how I start a painting.  I usually start with
                              a blank canvas and a little brown paint. I like to add a frame so
                              I  have an idea where to place the focus of my painting. I haven't
                             done any cows in a while so this turned out to be a good exercise.
                              I like the outcome.

Winter Run



8 x 10 inches oil on canvas click here to bid    Sold

This is Hope, she love's to show off . I took this photo one afternoon when we had a lot
of snow on the ground. She loves to strut her stuff.
I added a picture of the painting framed, to give you an idea of what  the painting looks like after its been framed. I never sell them with a frame because I feel it is a personal choice.
