Sheep at the Stone Farmhouse. Oil painting on canvas 16" x 20" Available at Etsy.

I was interested in the texture of this old farmhouse, and improvised the landscape. I think the sheep add a lot of personality to the scene.

This one has a lot of thick impasto. I think the yellow sky really balances the composition.

After working on the mural restoration project at the Ridglea Theater in Fort Worth, I am now back in the studio painting! And it feels good. This is one of two similar country house paintings I did last week.

The Clothesline

The Clothesline 8" x 24"oil on canvas. SOLD

This is painted with a palette knife with thick impasto and lots of bright colors. I love the long narrow size and am planning to do more!

Promise of Living

 Promise of Living. Oil painting on canvas 24" x 24". Available on Etsy.

This is a larger version of a painting I did a few months ago, which was very popular and was sold by Serena & Lily Bazaar. The title comes from a piece of Aaron Copland's Tender Land opera. It is a simple image, but is painted in thick impasto with a lot of great texture. I always paint the edges, so it can be hung with or without a frame.

All are 16" x 16"
