Kerry Cow on Rolling Pastures

6"x6" oil on gessoed masonite artboard

I've begun work on a commission so this week I'll be posting some older pieces 'from the vault' that are still looking for a good home. This cow is from one of my trips over to Valentia Island Ireland. She was rather vocal, in fact I was a bit worried she'd jump the hedge!

This one is dry and ready to ship immediately for Christmas gift giving! Free shipping/insurance through the end of 2011.

Windswept Cedar

6"x6" oil on gessoed masonite artboard

"Between every two pines is a doorway to a new world." ~John Muir

I pass by this tree when I go takes walks at Harkness Park, down by the shoreline. It appears that the wind has whipped it around for years. It angles over and up against every winter storm, every late summer hurricane and continues its upward sweep even though it has apparently battled a lot just to stay put. I do love how it bends up and over the path at the edge of the field. Steadfast, hanging in there no matter what.

Varying Stages Of Undress; Pears

8"x10" oil on gallery wrapped stretched canvas

I have always admired paintings of those 'fancy pears' that come wrapped in elegant paper- like the ones in those fruit gifts that come at Christmas! As luck would have it our mother in law sent us a gorgeous box of pears (& other goodies). I ate one already, but realized I have these beautiful subjects to paint....and quickly as they'll need to be eaten! Pears have such a beautiful sensual form...and these three in varying stages of un-wrap are well- very fascinating to me.

High Pony, Irish Wool

6"x6" oil on gessoed masonite artboard

"Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair." ~Kahlil Gibran


What a delight, wind in the hair, walking on the beach...this late in the year in New England?! Being open and accepting of what the day brings is easier to appreciate when the weather is nice! ;-)
