From Above


I saw a show recently that inspired me to try an aerial view still life. This is just a little 4" x 4" experiment, but I liked how it turned out.

Cochin


This chicken was brought to the United States from China in the mid 1800's and apparently caused quite a sensation. They are big birds, eight to ten pounds but look even larger with their generous feathers.

Peaches

I know there are no more peaches left to eat, unless they are in a jar, but this big canvas with some peaches was calling for a new look.

Kate's Giraffe


If you think this giraffe looks familiar it's because I painted one like him a couple of months ago. I wasn't happy with the composition so I gave it another go.
