Artists Of Texas Contemporary Paintings and Art

And We Danced 24" x 12" oil on linen You are invited to Southlake Art in the Square in Southlake, Texas ...this weekend! And We Danced  is my latest painting and I absolutely love how it turned out. It may not be dry enough to display this weekend in my exhibit at Southlake Art in the Square , but I wanted to share it fresh off the easel.  I did some sketches of the peach roses in preparation for this piece. I worked on suggesting light and gesture with as few brushstrokes as possible. Painting roses is challenging. The translucent petals catch the light, reflect the light and throw luminous shadows onto the underpetals. Observing a rose is fascinating to me. Here is a study from this week.

September Reflections 20" x 16" oil on linen Taking a break from the studio to spend time with my family over the Christmas holidays has been rejuvenating. It may seem a little early to begin thinking about spring, but I'm already getting excited about planning my schedule. I received invitations to exhibit in the Bayou City Art Festival Memorial Park in Houston, Texas and Southlake Art in the Square and I'm thrilled. They both rank at the top of the list of the best fine art festivals in the United States. I'll be participating in a few group exhibits this spring as well. Looking forward to the new year!
