Orchid Study - Original Oil Painting by George De Chiara

Orchid Study

Oil on Canvas Panel

If you would like to purchase this painting visit my auction here.

 I'm working on a commission for one of my collectors and she wants orchids in it. Having never painted an orchid before, I thought it might be a good idea to do this little study first. I'm working from silk flowers with this one, which have a unique set of issues, but since I have my doubts on keeping the real thing alive long enough to paint, it's the best I can do. That being said, I have tried out my green thumb in the vegetable garden, but sometimes things just don't work out for me when it comes to flowers.

The Old Mill Study, Barbara Haviland

  #mill,#water,#building,#11x14,#BarbaraHavilandFineArt.com This painting was part of a study.  We had the photo and I painted it then watched the demo. I always do that.  I like to change my painting up a bit. It is painted on a hardboard panel that has canvas adhered to it.  I have used this method for years. I don't care for the spring of a stretched canvas.  Thanks for viewing my art ~~Barbara Available  GALLERY INFO Barbara Haviland Fine Art 1579 County Road 1010 Woodville, Texas 75979 409-332-0141 Website

Central Fire Station Lake Charles, La Barbara Haviland

  CENTRAL FIRE STATION LAKE CHARLES, LA #CentralFireStation,#HIstoric,#Building,#BarbaraHavilandFineArt.com Central Fire Station  no longer exists in  Lake Charles, La.  I had some old photos that I used to paint this painting.   24"x40"  and it is signed and framed, but you must come pick it up. I was told that the station burned down and they built another.
 I haven’t posted here in a long time, partly because my artistic endeavors have taken a turn toward quilting instead of painting.   But this quilt started as a painting which I had printed on fabric and then turned it into a quilt.  So maybe I can slip it into the blog!  If you are interested in seeing more, let me know!
