Cottonwood and Building

 

 

A small plein air oil painting of a cottonwood beside a building.  It was a hot summer day along Santa Fe highway near my home.  We have lots of beautiful cottonwoods here--strong and majestic.
$200 + shipping; oil on board

Grapes and Yellow Pepper

I do still life paintings as a way of relaxing. I enjoy the quiet of the studio. Oil on board, 9"x12". $140 plus shipping.

South Platte Building

This oil on board is a painting of the South Platte River in downtown Denver with a brick building in the background and a tree with a white trunk as a focal point.  I love to paint plein air.

An oil painting 16"x20" on canvas of two girls chatting on a bench in Boulder.  Looks like they just finished a yoga class and are deep in conversation.  Enjoy!  NFS













Crested Butte Plein Air Open Juried Show 2015

I found a couple of photos of my first juried show--thanks to Oh Be Joyful Gallery in Crested Butte! I actually had 5 paintings juried in but the top photo shows only three of the five. A good friend of mine made the frames; he is an artist and custom frame maker.

I did not understand the rules well before entering the show. One could paint for several weeks before the judging as long as the canvas was stamped by the gallery.  I showed up 2 days before the jurying, got my canvases stamped and painted 6 scenes in a day and one half.  I took the paintings into the gallery wet! They juried on the spot. I was so fortunate to have met this wonderful gallery!
