I have recently begun painting in acrylics. I have mainly used pastels but now I am trying different techniques and styles. And I am trying to be much looser and not too detail orientated. (Something I find hard to do.)I do feel I accomplished this looser style with this piece. I am also pleased to say that I sold this painting very quickly after completing it. Happy dance!!!

Permission by photographer, Suzanne Hallerman. The minute I saw this photo, I fell in love with it. The colors the landscape, the small town... just charming. This is the description I put on my website: "This mixed media colorful painting has a texture made of tissue paper in the hills surrounding it, acrylic, oil, and ink, and to make it more unusual? a sheet of an old hymnal page ?My Faith Looks Up to Thee". This tight little village is set in a place where friendship and fishing are

Title or Location: Fantasy get Away Located in Orange Virginia
The owner told me that she wanted something fun, relaxing, and beautiful to adorn her shed. She pointed out the she especially hated the electric meter. About 1/2 way across painting on the shed, she came out with ice tea and asked if I could also include the Blue Ridge Mountains. So, I made the building end (made a corner) and then added some blue ridge mountains off in the background. Finished product has feelings of Greece with Blue Ridge mountains, making it a true fantasy piece!

Painted during various live music events, in an attempt to take my viewers places thru the portal, when a viewer passed by saying how he loved the yellow brick road, which inadvertently named the piece! And therefore i had to add Emerald City from the Wizard of Oz as one of 3 destinations among a futuristic Neon City and the Pyramids of Giza! Hope you enjoy!

Title or Location: Through the coral reef
This piece was created while attending an art retreat by Milan Art Institute in Sarasota, Florida. The theme of the retreat was beneath the surface. I combined two images to add the mermaid in the background of the turtle image, creating a unique source. This painting combines collage, acrylic ink, spray paint, acrylic paint and is finished off with oil paint to encompass texture and vibrancy. As a New Englander I love being on or around the water. This piece brought out my passion for sea life

This pop of spring is created on 6x6 ceramic tile, mounted on glass and inserted in a 8x8 shadow box. I am a fluid, acrylic artist. The background was created by transferring a ?pour? with the main subject painted with fluid acrylics using a plastic spoon. Those spoons aren?t just for takeout. Embellishments are my touch of whimsy.

Title or Location: Bournville Rest house in winter
I took up oil painting after retiring from the the NHS. Bournville looks stunning on a snowy day when the sun is shining. I worked this from a photo I took when the light was perfect. The colours of snow are magical. It is never white. The perspective on the Rest house is quite challenging!
