Original Oil Painting Wild Rooster


Wild Rooster 

Sold
10" x 10" 
Painted on gessobord.

I do not get the chance to paint with so many nuggets of pure color to often. So when I saw this colorful character, I could not resist painting him. The background was done very abstractly which complements the rooster well. I was going to just title it: Rooster but with all the colors; wild just had to be added.

Original Oil Painting Fish and Chips


Fish and Chips

12" x 12"

This was a fun painting. I used my palette knife quiet a lot, scrapping and dabbing. I enhance the colors on the fish and background. Sometimes an artist has to play!

Original Oil Painting Old World Still Life


Old World Still Life

12" x 12"

Sold

I painted this on a slightly rougher texture. I added a couple coats of gesso to the already gessobord leaving it rough. The paint was put on very thickly with sometimes many layers. I was trying to give it an old, vintage look. I was really happy with the way the copper and bowl turned out. The bright oranges added a nice contrast. I hope you like my antique way of painting?
