"Harvest Day at the Lavender Farm"

12"x12"
Oil on Panel
Contact me for purchase information

I've been painting, just not posting!  I'm getting the last of the paintings done for a show a Columbia Center for the Arts in Hood River, OR.  Here we have a grey day, verging on rain, but the lavender was cut before the downpour.  I love this place--there's nothing like being surrounded by the scent of it!  By the way, the name of it is Hood River Lavender Farms.  Check it out!!!

"Sorting Pears, Lage Packing Shed" (sold)

Oil on Panel
8"x24"

Another painting in our "An Uncommon Beauty" series.  It depicts a group of women as they inspect the pears coming in for packing.  I was struck by the brilliant green of the pears and the intensely bright light shining over them contrasted with the browns and greys of the surroundings.  You can see more of my paintings for this series by clicking on the page in the upper right corner of this blog.
