Orange And Cherry Study



Orange And Cherry Study 
4"x6"
Acrylic on panel

Here is my next quick study! These are challenging, not only because of the time frame I've set, but I've gotten used to painting a certain way, so loosening up is something I'm working on. It takes a lot of practice.

Striped Apple And Cherries



Striped Apple And Cherries
6"x6"
Acrylic on panel

New apple and cherries painting! I love the squat striped apple next to these bright rainier cherries! Also, black and red look great together...I've never tried a rainier cherry...it's silly, but I guess I drank too many shirley temples as a kid..the only cherries I like to eat are maraschino!

Babydoll



Babydoll 
11"x14"
Acrylic and Ink on paper

I just finished this piece, which is part of a series I started years ago...The subject matter of the series is very personal, but this is a cathartic experience for me..I'm feeling motivated right now to work on these paintings again...I'm looking forward to everything coming together. A couple of years ago I was at a crossroads in my life...I was visiting my mother and I remember her bringing home this naked baby doll that had been run over and left in the middle of the road in downtown Jacksonville.

Tomatillos



Tomatillos
6"x6"
Acrylic on panel

I'm finding a lot of great new produce recently! I brought these tomatillos home and googled them after I finished this piece. Apparently, they're a fruit used in mexican cooking that can turn yellow, red, and purple. I love the paper husk that surrounds them.
