Angels

Save as Draft

These Angels were inspired by my desire to use an old world pallet of burnt sienna, yellow ocher and paynes gray, also included was titanium white. I have been reading about impressionistic painters, Manet, Monet and others. I also attended an impressionistic abstract workshop recently.
I was working with a painting that I could not complete this idea came to me for the angels and I quickly painted a series of them.

Birds of a Feather

I love birds! They are gods creatures. It is very hard to capture the beauty of a bird in paint.
The Herons and Pelican are local to my coastal home. We live in the Wolf Bay area and I see them in my back yard the water birds are very abundant here.
The Macaw was a picture a friend took down in Mexico at a bird aviary. I thought he had a lot of personality and attitude.
Here are some of the birds I love.

Akumal Turtles

After the first turtle painting, I wanted to do a large 30X40" of the turtles we had seen while snorkeling in Akumal Half Moon Bay......this is what I came up with. This painting was taken to Playa Del Carmen,Mexico and hangs in our place there.

The Turtle or Tur Tur as a wee one said

This little guy was the one that got my attention. I was struggling with trying to learn the tecniques for acrylic painting. Somehow I managed to get him painted and was thrilled with the way he turned out....My husband's comment...."well I guess you think you're an artitst!".......yes I do.

Fishes

Here are some of the fish I have seen while Scuba Diving or just conjured up in my imagination they are Impressionistic in style .I used acrylic texture with a very rough build up but the effect is great for coral reefs fins and things.

Crabs with Personality

Here are some of my whimsical Crabs. They each have their own cute personalities
These Crabs are painted with acrylic paint on pressed wood and have a great texture.
They are suitable for hanging inside or out side under a covered porch.
This one is named Criki Crab
