"Evening Tide" by Kyle Wood

"Evening Tide" - 24" x 18" - Oil

Here is my latest oil painting that I just finished yesterday. Since the beginning of summer, I have been working on a creating a new series of lighthouse/coastal themed paintings. This is the third one in the series that I have created. The lighthouses themselves are not specified. Instead, they are imagery places that could be anywhere in the world.

For this painting, I chose to do a sunset and used lots of warm colors (yellow, reds, and oranges). For contract, I used the opposite complimentary colors of purple, green, and blue throughout the painting. The painting is also a vertical composition, which is more unusual than the horizontal format that I typically do. This composition worked out better vertically. Enjoy!

To view more of my paintings or other blogs, please visit www.kwoodfineart.com. Also, this will by first year as one the participating artists in the Third Annual Artists of Texas Show at The Dutch Art Gallery, starting in November. The reception date will be Saturday, November 5th. More information will be forthcoming. I look forward to seeing all the great work that everyone has created for this show!

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!
