new work

I've been busy these past few months, post holidays and all, and I've been able to get some smaller paintings done. I like having a number of smaller sized works for the outdoor shows. Easier for people to make impulse purchases, or to buy something as a gift for someone. These paintings are all now on my website- check them out!
"Ocean Waves" is a new one-taken from a photo I took at Polihali beach on Kauai. The surf there is beautiful...and scary! Not a place to swim!
"Bali Hai View" is taken from the vantage point of the balcony at the Princeville Hotel. Not that we stayed there! We just went to sightsee from there. What a beautiful place.
"Formal Flowers" is from the Hamilton Botanical Gardens in Ontario, Canada. I've had this photo for a while and I finally got to paint this beautiful garden. This is a larger sized painting than the others- no way I could do that garden justice in a smaller size!
"Single Purple Iris" is also from the Botanical Gardens. I love painting irises, and doing these single ones is so much fun! These seem to sell quite well at the outdoor shows. I always miss them when they go to new homes!
