Another mini painting, well when I bought these 3x4 mini canvases, there were 100 of them in there. And they have been selling!

SKU: 10EH21ACM
Medium: Acrylic
Size: 3x4 Mini Stretched Canvas

What Brought About this Painting?

Aren't giraffes kind of prehistoric looking? And they look like large goofy clumsy critters. Cute in an odd way.

Post 196: The Orange Koi Acrylic 8x16

Painting Name: The Orange Koi

An upcoming theme in January and February at Clearbrook Center of the Artists for PWAS is "Orange". I did not want to have fall colors again, so this is my submission for "Orange".

SKU: 10EF21ACL2
Medium: Acrylic
Size: 8x16 Stretched Canvas 
Edition Year: 2021
Framed?: No
Check availability and Prints on my Etsy Shop



Painting in Progress

The koi fish roughed in.





The Orange Koi is close to being finished, I may tweak him a bit more.

What Brought About this Painting?

As stated above, the theme for January/February at Clearbrook Center of the Arts in Lake Ridge, VA - the art gallery for the Prince William Art Society, is simply the color Orange. Lots of things can be orange, although the brain at this time of year may go straight to pumpkins and the changing leaves.

Carrots, flowers, goldfish, some football, school or sports team's colors, basketballs, sometimes a sunrise or a sunset, fruit, some butterflies, some birds, cats (large and small), sweet potatoes and so much more - can all be orange. Or an abstract painting with orange in it for goodness sake! 

My thought went to Koi Fish as an entry for the Orange theme.


So here he is, "The Orange Koi", Acrylic on Stretched Canvas 8x16

Post 194: Up in the Trees 11x14 Acrylic

Painting Name: Up in the Trees

I did another painting called "Just Look Up" earlier this year, so this makes the second of looking up at the trees paintings. 

SKU: 10ED21ACG
Medium: Acrylic
Size: 11x14 Gallery Wrapped Stretched Canvas
Edition Year: 2021
Framed?: No
Check availability and Prints on my Etsy Shop
SOLD

What Brought About this Painting?

It is something like the saying of "stop and smell the roses" to me, in that we should sometimes while walking, stop and look up at the trees. If you wear glasses, sometimes a safer thing to do if a bird happens to be directly overhead at the time, but usually the view of the looking up into the canopy of the trees overhead is a calming thing to me.



There is a small surprise somewhere in the painting, I'm wondering if you will see it. Leave a comment if you find it and what it is.
