I brought back lots of reference photos from my August trip to Destin Beach, Florida. I am enjoying reliving the experience as I work on these small studies while the memory is fresh.  "Waves" 6x9 inches Pastel on Sanded Paper Judy Wilder Dalton   "Sand and Sea Oats" 5x7 inches Pastel on Sanded Paper Judy Wilder Dalton  Daily Paintworks Facebook  

Rainy Day Glaveston, Texas 8 x 8 Oil on Panel Randall Cogburn Click to Purchase on  eBay Auction Rainy days can be fun to be out in, especially if you don't mind being wet. I've done some kayaking on days like this and even in some drenchers which was really fun. My hat I wear was soaked. The brim looked like the lip of one of those giant clam shells. Every once in a while, I'd get a good mouth fool of rain water. It's interesting to see how the colors and values change on a rainy day. Ahhh, the salty sea got to love it.

Here is the final painting of a five-painting commissioned series. The eggplants at my nearby grocery store were pathetic; hence photos and two previous eggplant paintings I've done were my references. (Unfortunately, that means there is nothing for me to eat!!!) The photo of the artwork (above) does not do justice to the rich, deep jewel tones of the flesh; trust me, though, they are there.  Any suggestions for taking better photos when there is such a contrast between the background and subject?

Oil on Canvas Panel, 6x6 -- Commission Painting #3 of a 5-painting commissioned series is one of the most indispensable ingredients in my kitchen:  a head of garlic.  This particular model will join several more for an indescribably delectable garlic soup.  I first discovered this unsung pleasure while dining at a Spanish restaurant in the gaslight district of San Diego sixteen years ago.  Though my attempts at recreating it were futile at first, I happened upon a recipe in a cookbook that is close--complete with a fried egg in the broth!  Heavenly.

Oil on Canvas Panel, 6x6 -- Commission Here is painting number 3 in a five-painting commissioned series.  How I dearly miss tomatoes from my own garden!  Still, this model served me well.  With a little sea salt, it was a juicy snack.
