Fresh From the Easel {...and headed to my second big juried art show!}

This painting began as pure inspiration, even before the leaves were fully out on the trees this past late-winter, in the form of the daily walks my husband and I take in the mornings, in a beautiful meadow.

As winter gave way to spring, and as spring matured into summer, I could not get enough of the lavish beauty of this place. It’s full of Queen Anne’s Lace, trumpet vine, passion flower, daisies, moon flowers, and berries. I had to paint it.

This beauty is a big 24x48” original, rendered in oil, on triple primed mdf board, which just happens to be my favorite surface upon which to use oil paints. The Preacher will be hand crafting a float frame for it. I have not titled it yet.

There are at least 4 open inquiries on it, so far. I’m willing to sell it, but I’m even more willing to bring it to my Artsclamation art show* this fall, where it will sell. I think this one is just about the prettiest thing I ever painted, so far.

And it’s okay to say so. How dare I offer anything to you, hoping that it be cherished by you, hoping that it adorn your personal space, if I do not feel absolutely over-the-moon about it?

I wouldn’t do it.

Contact me here, to open your own inquiry. (Just a fancy way of saying I tell you the price, you decide if you want it, and we work out shipping details. This one will have to be crated, and I do offer small discounts to help offset the cost of crate shipping.)
