Geraniums and more geraniums.

  My French Geraniums  20 x 20 oil on canvas

This painting will be available at the Painted Garden art show
at Beach Gallery in Va. Beach, Va. on April 5th. I'll 
announce details closer to the opening.  It will be running in conjunction
with Historic Garden Club week.

To warm up for the painting I did a small version that is available now
in auction format via the link below the painting.  Each painting 
turns out uniquely and there are qualities that I like about each one.
I'm curious which one you prefer?

Two Down

Two Down   6 x 6  oil on museum board

I'm enjoying the primary palette, the distortion of the liquid
and the reflections on the shaker.
The combinations seem endless yet each
painting is a new challenge.

I'm experimenting with a different surface this week.
I've coated each panel with three coats of gesso
sanding in between. After I play
with it a while I'll let you know which on I like best
and why.
 
How do you prepare your panels.
I order Ampersand from the states.
What do you use?

French Table

French Table 20 x 20 Oil on Canvas Gallery Wrapped

This isn't my French kitchen, it belongs to a friend of mine who is 
quite a collector of table cloths. And everyone knows a
good French table isn't complete with a table cloth
and of course fresh flowers.
