Smooth Swimming

Acrylic on Gessobord

I've had a lot on my mind the past week and decided I needed to paint something soothing.   This was just what the doctor ordered.  I hope it bring you the peace that it brought me.

Fiona and Patrick

Sold

Aren't these two the most adorable pair?! This is a commission painting I just completed. These two pups, Fiona and Patrick, have the sweetest relationship. They are both rescues. Patrick was adopted first. His family found that he was quite depressed. That's when Fiona joined their family. She provides the comfort and support that Patrick needs, and they make an adorable pair!! I can't help but smile every time I look at this!

Dog Beach At Sunset

 

6x6
Acrylic on Gessobord

Last month I went through some photos that I've taken over the past 5 years.  I found this one and knew I was ready to paint it.  As I've grown in my artistic abilities, I am able to take on paintings that I once wasn't sure I could do.  This is one of those.  I love that warm sparkling light on the water.  Wish I was there now!

Emerald Anchorage

One of our favorite anchorages in the San Juan Islands is Reid Harbor on Stuart Island.  The water in the summer is the most brilliant emerald color and you are surrounded by walls of towering evergreens.  When the late afternoon sun hits the water it truly sparkles.  Hopefully you can feel that in this painting!
