Poppies

Oil on canvas 8x10 (with gold and ink)

Four New Caledonia Lorikeets

New oil on canvas 16x20

Woodpecker

New 16x20 oil on stretched canvas.  This Pileated woodpecker is based on a fun photo found on the internet at http://cristinasarno.blogspot.com (link is here) set against a photo of trees I took around San Geronimo.  Although, on occasion, I have noticed acorn woodpeckers in my backyard , I haven't yet been graced with a Pileated woodpecker.  Some cool acorn woodpecker photos can be found at www.roysephotos.com (link is here)

Spoonbill is a Gregarious Bird

New oil painting on stretched linen 28"x22."  The Spoonbill is one of my favorite birds, although we don't have them in California that I know of.

Laura

New oil painting 22"x28" on Belgian Linen.  This is the oil painting equivalent of this photo composite:  Laura in the Garden

Detail from Tree House on Lake Painting

Sometimes I like my under paintings as much, if not more, than my finished paintings so when Illustration Friday announced this week's topic "Atmosphere" I thought I'd submit a detail from a new 36" x 36" oil painting in process that seems to fit the theme.
