i love these gorgeous hollyhocks. they say everything i've longed to say.... in painting the various hollyhocks this summer.
the active background.... brings the bunches of flower pods to life... creating energy and summer freshness.

Chocolate Iris Floral
this lovely painting.... has been reworked from an earlier version. the deeper sepia tones have extra layers of wash... which darken the value. i enjoy it more now. the richness and glow are a bit more evident.

Cows and Landscapes
,
these small acrylics are reworks of some previous paintings last fall. i enriched the focus.. and softened the edges-- also painted more dramatic fields of color to pump up the drama. the effect is powerful, jewel-like portraits of our 4-legged friends....

Banana Botanical
Crazy Bananas!... this piece is from the Ecuadorian show i had a few years back. it was a smaller study for a larger painting of bananas. i particularly like the color.. and the build up of bananas. the botanical is a favorite theme of mine... and Ecuador is a major exporter of bananas.
