Color on a Gray Day

6"x6" Oil on gessoboard
SOLD


I love the Agapanthus flower...I took this photo on a gray day when I was walking around the Estuary. There are a few of these growing along the walkway and they add such lovely color.  I loved the blue against the gray sky background!!
I'm a bit slow on the painting again...been too busy clearing out 'stuff ' so we can sell the house, I hope that will change soon!!

Walkway Wildflowers

Drawing #46
Pen and watercolor

The Daily Paintworks challenge this week is about spring. Even though it's autumn in this part of the world these wildflowers come to mind when I think about spring....they are scattered along the side of the path. This is another part of the Estuary walkway where I often walk in the mornings...nice!!

Estuary Morning Light

8"x10" Oil on canvas board

I have been getting back to some Estuary paintings which are slightly larger, I have quite a few to paint, so will be posting as I do them among my small ones...it makes life a bit more interesting! This view looks to the East and is just before an old bridge that is used as part of the walkway across the water.

Morning Stillness

6"x8" Oil on board

SOLD

Back to landscapes for a change ...I have been walking around the Estuary walkway this week, there is always a lovely stillness here early in the day. I have a few more to paint from around this area, it's one of my favourite places... even better,  it's so close to my home!  As we head into winter, the mornings have been frosty...the upside is the beautiful clear sunny days that follow!

Path Marker

6"x6" Oil on board
$85 +$20 s/h
This painting was done with a palette of alizarin crimson, cad yellow, ultramarine blue, white and black for the Limited Palette Challenge on facebook... I used very little black and was surprised at the range of colors I was able to mix! These markers are along the Estuary walkway where I often walk in the mornings.

Slice of Light

Slice of Light 
8x6in oil on canvas panel

These trees are around the Estuary walkway across the road from where I live, this was in the morning when the sun was bright and there are these slices of light from the sun peeking through.
