Still Life Paintings

Lemon Trio 8 x 10 Oil

This is one of a series of fruit and vegetable still life paintings that I painted for Corse Gallery in Jacksonville, Florida over the last couple of months. I finally added retouch varnish, framed and shipped them this week. I will be a guest artist in their gallery for the next several months. Painting these small still life paintings has been a lot of fun and they will become a greater portion of my output this year. I am now painting some larger ones while the weather is not conducive to plein air painting. April and May are pretty full with several plein air paint outs.

Painting Still Life's

Pear Trio 8 x 10 on Linen Panel

This is one of the still life's that I will be sending to Jacksonville as soon as I get them all sprayed with retouch varnish and packed. I have painted ten of them since December. All were painted from life and have been a lot of fun. I am struggling with a large landscape right now and am painting it from a photo. I have the plein air piece and need to go back to it and forget the photo. I find it much easier to paint from life than a photo.
