I look forward to this time of year when the peonies start to bloom in my yard.  Every year I try to devote several days to paint these, quick to fade, flowers.

Some of my favorite paintings are on site, plein aire sketches.  This one was from just last week in one of my favorite haunts on a rise in an Oklahoma prairie.

Picking Sand Plums in Rural Oklahoma

This painting began after a wildcrafting trip in rural Oklahoma where Jackie Dill lead a group of us to her favorite haunts and shared Native American recipes, Here we are foraging for wild plums.  I loved how the sun fell across a young woman in our group as she reached for more plums.  I said, " Wait!  Hold that pose!  Snapped a few photos and used them later in the studio to create this painting.  This painting started out as a stretched canvas that later got ripped when my husband was cleaning up.  On my blog I go through the process of repairing it and putting it on a board.  To bid on the painting, click here

Back Yard

I got inspired the other day.  It was such a warm and wonderful afternoon and all my work was complete.  I had a couple hours left of daylight and my neighbor's fully leafed out willow tree looked so pretty against the rest of the barren trees and the cloudy day.  I ran in and grabbed my brushes and set about the painting.
