Botanical oil painting of lemons . A still life study

 

 

 

A STILL LIFE STUDY   by Sally Fraser

Oil still life of lemons off my lemon tree one summer. I recently refreshed this oil painting and it improved  so much I wanted to share it with others. A 12 x 12 x 2 on canvas.  These greens, blues and yellows make this a colorful botanical realistic painting                                                             

Most of my paintings have been more abstract but I like a of realism now and then.

Steller Jay, Bird Art by Shep

This lovely New Mexican Bird was captured stealing pecans, on the deck rail of Shep's Cloudcroft cabin, in the early morning sun.  He came back so many times it was as if he wanted his portrait painted.

It is cotton harvest time here on the ranch, and I couldn't resist picking a few bolls for painting.

I hope you're enjoying a wonderful week and the lovely colors of fall.

I had such fun painting this morning.  My little office/study truly is my “happy” place.  Now, I am off to winterize our yard.  It is a gorgeous day, and I want to get out and enjoy the sunshine.

Happy Saturday!

Cobalt Mallet Bottle with Mission Figs

The past few months, I have been posting a few process shots (see below) of my paintings on Instagram. It is fun to get feedback from the creative community there, and it is even more fun to see all of the wonderful artwork that is posted.  If you are using Instagram, I would love to follow you.  And if you would like to follow my posts, my ID is d_mcdowell.

I hope you have a great weekend!

Amber Mallet Bottle with Muscato Grapes by Texas Artist Darla McDowell

I loved painting this beautiful amber mallet bottle from Jury Smith's Bottle and Bowl website.  It was fun to see our landscape reflected in the highlight, and it seemed to pair perfectly with the black, muscato grapes.  (Which, by the way, are quite tasty!)
