A Pile of Pumpkins

I was at the local Agway Store to buy dog food and I saw their latest display of fall flowers and pumpkins. I could not resist this exercise in painting multiples. Out came my camera and I ended up doing several paintings. This is the first one.

Path to the Cove

This was a fun painting to do! I was experimenting with a new textured linen canvas glued to a birchwood board that my artist friend Stan Moeller gave me to play with. Trying out new surfaces is an excellent way to keep the creative juices flowing.

Vine Tomatoes

I saw these tomatoes when I was buying food at the market and I just had to paint them! I get excited whenever I have an excuse to use bold, bright reds in a painting. I also love to paint shadows and these were just to lovely to resist!

Three Acorns

I needed to get a study done and I was at a loss as to what to paint. While walking my dog in my field, I could feel the crunch of acorns under my feet. There seems to be more of them than ever this year. This was my answer. Here is the result.
