Foundry Art Centre - Totuskey Grainery Oils

For those of you that won't be able to make it to the show . . . this is a shot of a series of panels I did from my sister's photos taken one very foggy morning of what was left of the Totuskey Grainery on the Northern Neck of VA.

The opening is this evening and it will be very cold, but at least the snow is holding off until this weekend.  What happened to Fall?

I went to The Foundry Art Centre this AM to see how Melissa and M.J. hung my upcoming show of oil paintings in the Ameristar Gallery. The opening reception is from 6 - 8PM tomorrow night and is free and open to the public.  (This photo may look a bit distorted . . . the wall has a slight curve to it so that presents some challenges.)

Sunset at the Crab Place (Oil on Panel)

Well I do paint on occasion and this is a familiar scene. Much of the time I work from photos taken by my sister, Kathryn. This crab place is close to her house on the Northern Neck of Virginia. 

For some reason when I uploaded this photo to my blog the purple looks much more saturated than it is in the painting and the transition from purple to the peachy color should appear much more subtle. Hmmm . . .  This little painting was done on an ampersand hardbord panel measuring 10" x 8".

Turquoise Skiff in the Mist (Oil on Panel)

I have been working on this painting off and on for the past couple of months.  I think I finally got it to a point that I can live with.  I have worked with similar image in the past, but prefer the misty version. This little painting was done on an ampersand hardbord panel measuring 10" x 8".

If you have any questions please email me.

Boat with Turquoise Trim (Oil on Panel)

Well it's about time I posted a new painting. I have been working on four paintings. One is a disaster and I don't think it will ever be solved. I may just have to sand it off and start over . This painting, however, was created from an award-winning photo shot by my sister, Kathryn. I hope the painting lives up to the photo. This is painted on a cradled panel that measures 16" x 24".

If you have any questions please email me.

Fall Reflection (Oil Painting on Panel)

Well I have started painting again and I obviously decided to work with a pretty abstract image. I don't think I am done, but I thought I would put this up to have something new on the page for a change. This is taken from another one of my sister's wonderful photos. It is painted on a gessoed ampersand hardbord panel which measures 8" x 10".

Barrier in the Snow

I keep tweaking this painting.  I think I am done.  Famous last words.

If you scroll down a few posts you will see 4 previous stages of this painting.
