Framed ~ "Petals of Sunshine"

SOLD


Well, it's the last day of January and time for my final "clear the studio" listing.

I framed this piece in a 7/8" dark brown (almost black) wooden frame, which really makes the rose stand out and complements nicely the dark background of the painting.  The framed size is 11 1/4 x 11 1/4" so it's an easy piece to hang for a bright spot of color.  This watercolor was done on 140# cold press watercolor paper, and framed with acid free mats and backing and u.v. filtering glass.

Snowy Field at Sunset

SOLD



With the extremely cold weather we're experiencing, I had to post this scene of the farm field adjacent to our home.  I guess a trade off for the cold weather is the beautiful sunsets in winter.  This is an oil on canvas, 11 x 14.  There certainly is great beauty in all seasons, we just have to look for it.

Here's the auction:

Crimson Glow ~ Framed

Still in January organizing mode!  This small-ish watercolor piece is being offered framed.  It is not only double matted, but the mats are spaced apart by 1/8" to give the piece a real feeling of depth in the frame.  The frame is a 1" rich dark brown wood, with subtle lighter shading on the inside and outside edges.  The image area is 6.25" x 9", and the total dimension with the frame is 13 1/8" x 15 7/8".

The process for painting this piece is wet into wet and is done quickly and freely.  It's Winsor and Newton watercolors on Arches paper.  Enjoy!

Laden Bough

SOLD

This watercolor painting is done in a vignette style with all edges of the paper being touched, but in varying amounts.  It is a very loose and free painting, with lots of sketched in leaves left unpainted.  Even the peaches have a soft, fuzzy look, with little detail. It was done very quickly and I liked the immediacy of it.  It's approx. 15.5" high and 9.5" wide.  Hope you enjoy this one!
