Flowers in a Vase

Flowers in a Vase includes my homegrown flowers.  I changed some of the colors to make the painting contain orange and to create it from impulse.   I had fun with this work because glass and water allow one to look through the clear water and glass vase to see the background.  Sometimes the background has all sorts of changes, and sometimes it looks exactly the same.  In addition, the almost cylinder shape of the vase allowed me to focus on ellipsis: the water, base of the vase, and top of the vase. I love painting glass and water and the flowers give the painting life.  This work is not for sale.

The Tomato Patch

The Tomato Patch is an acrylic painting.  The viewer may walk through the gate to a garden.  I love this work because it invites the viewer as a guest to a backyard garden.  The work encourages people to enjoy simple things like gardens and sunny afternoons.  It measures 14” X 11.”  For details email marnismith922@gmail.com.
