Red Poppies Three hot off the Easel!

I have recently finished this 14 x 11 acrylic on Canvas! It was a fun and challenging piece to do!  Poppies have such papery, translucent petals that need to glow!  I love the deep background shadows too with some of the foliage barely visible.  It is interesting how sunlight makes some greens appear almost turquoise.  I also love the little pop of lime green in the centers.

I did a smaller poppy painting for a collaboration with another artist and have been wanting to do a larger piece.   This one is only a 5 x 7 piece.

 I do a lot of florals and have many for sale on Daily Paintworks, Etsy and Fine Art America!

Never too early for Christmas Poinsettia painting

This is a new watercolor painting that I did  hopefully to use on Christmas cards this year.  It always gets to be holiday time and I have no chance to do something for a card.  Well, this year I am way ahead of the game. 

These poinsettias were in a casino of all places - they were the prettiest white, pink and red.  This casino has a display of huge gingerbread houses every year so I took my camera.  I am sooo glad that I did! 

I will be adding Giclee prints of this painting to my Etsy shop soon!  I have to keep the original for a solo gallery show in September.

Thanks for looking and come back soon!
