New Orleans Houses Painting

New Orleans Shotgun Houses. When I was pretty young, we had a sweet

neighbor who had one of these. She would walk all of us girls throughout the house and 

we were just so impressed-no hallways!

Abstracts are what I painted, usually, when working with 

Interior Designers during my Graphic Art days, I still felt like

I could actually be creative.

Large Marlin Oil Painting

This is one of my favorite things to paint, these MARLINS are better in

person because the camera does not show the brush work and color

that make them so cool to hang, but you get the idea!

Speckled Trout Impasto OIl Painting

This is a 24" wide by 12" tall impressionist Speckled Trout. Oil. Colorful.

Blah, blah, blah.

Okay, so here's the thing. According to the blog "STATS" I'm supposed to

believe that there are people from pretty much all over the world viewing my work. Now. Daily.  Lots of Russians; which is cool, but what does that even mean?  And so far I have had just a teeny weeny bit of feedback on this site. 

So if you are reading this, and you can speak English or Spanish, Russian, or whatever, it would be very cool

if you would just let me know you stopped by. Join the blog.  Tell me you love it. Tell me you hate it. Tell me it is

so boring you are just neutral on it. Just SAY SOMETHING. 

Thanks : )

Low Country Marsh Oil Painting

This oil painting is called Low Country Marsh. I worked from 

two photos to paint this, and wanted to use lots of greens and

yellow ochre. Just a hint of blue in the water and the sky, very

painterly. Painted on artist wood panel, 1" wood sides.

After the Storm Oil Painting

Okay, so you know that old saying, "After the Storm" -well that had to be the perfect name for this painting. I went with my family to the beach this spring, and it rained the entire drive. After two days of POURING RAIN, we went outside and it was just the most spectacular contrast of colors. Really dark outlines against an almost neutral sky. I knew I had to paint it, so I did one to keep to remember that beautiful day, then I did a couple of small ones, and now we have a Medium size oil painting that gives an IMPRESSION of that day. This has TONS OF THICK IMPASTO oil paint, and LOTS of BRUSHWORK!

Hope you love this.  To Purchase, go to www.recycledwoodart.etsy.com

Colorful Oyster Shell

I just love painting these oyster shells. Yes, they are very colorful and

not too perfect.  Lots of texture and paint on these shells. Of course, I got some orange in here

and a tiny bit of red. You can find this
