Venetian Doorway


"Venetian Doorway"
8 x 10
$125.00



I was taking a Gondola ride in Venice this past summer and took a photo of this exquisite doorway and I just had to paint it!  It's so typical of the Italians to make everything gorgeous.  Somehow I think the colors in Europe are just more vibrant than the states.

The French Market


"The French Market"
12 x 12 Canvas Board

Painting with this brighter palette makes me so happy.  I'm loving this impasto
technique.  It may be winter but it's spring in my heart.  I hope you enjoy this beautiful
painting of a French Flower Market.

Beach Flowers


"Beach Flowers"
6 x 8 Canvas Board
$125.00




Even though it's technically winter it's almost 60 degrees here in Arlington, VA!  I'm loving this winter but already thinking about beach times next summer so I painted this lovely beach painting.  I'm using my new brighter palette that I picked up in my Marco Island workshop with Dreama.  Hope you like this as much as I do.

Santorini, Greece







ABOUT THIS PAINTING: My husband and I took our first trip to Greece Sept of 2010 to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. From the first evening in Athens to the last in Santorini we were smitten. Greece is magical. The people, food, and the islands were spectacular. I couldn't believe all of the color. It is the perfect place to paint.
