                                                                        Calm Morning 7x14 oil on canvas I painted this after I took a long kayak ride.

Hot Summer Night 8x10 oil on linen Have you ever spent a summer day dreaming of a way to cool off? We did and spent the evening cruising the lake hoping for a cool breeze.   The bonus was this spectacular sunset. Did I push the colors a bit?  Maybe, but if you look long and hard enough the color is there!  To purchase or see more http://www.sherijonesart.com Sheri@sherijonesart.com http://www.sheriart.blogspot.com.

Bougainvillea 10x8 oil on linen panel Sold I created this during the Hidden Garden tour this past weekend. It sold right off the easel. I love it that happens.  The house I painted at was absolutely beautiful and highlighted with these huge pots of bougainvillea.  They were 40 years old and were glowing in the afternoon sun.  The owners move them inside the garage during the winter.  That's the only way to survive and get so large.   To purchase or see more http://www.sherijonesart.com Sheri@sherijonesart.com http://www.sheriart.blogspot.com.

It's in the Shadow 14x11 oil on linen  I spied this house on my morning walk. It was the array of colors in the shadow that attracted me to paint this scene.  I've studied this green house for years knowing there was a painting in there somewhere.  The soft pink crape myrtles and roses are a nice contract to the soft greens.  To purchase or see more http://www.sherijonesart.com Sheri@sherijonesart.com http://www.sheriart.blogspot.com.

                                                                   Running Free 24x18 oil on linen canvas I was inspired to paint this after visiting the Acton Nature Trail with my sisters, and great nieces.
