Lake in Lecco, Italy......oil painting.....#26 of 30 paintings in 30 days...

 

18x36.....oil painting.....$775

 

This is a little place in the Lake District in Italy...a little town called Lecco.  This is where we stayed our first two night of our trip in 2010.  We had traveled by ferry to Bellagio on this day and as we returned and were walking back to our hotel, the light was just so gorgeous!  I took many pictures along the way and lagged way behind my fellow travelers.....as usual.  lol

Water's Edge....Oil Painting.....#13 of 30 Paintings in 30 Days....

 

20x24......oil on canvas.........$575

 

This is a scene from the edge of the water where our house in Gulfport used to be pre-Katrina.  We sure do miss the good times down there.  With God's grace we will be able to have the family convene down there again one day.

I 've been painting...really.

Just Chillin'......30x40.......oil on canvas......Commission

This is for a couple that has acquired quite a collection of my work.  They are great friends and the nicest folks you would ever want to meet. (not to mention they have great taste in art.)  This painting was done specifically for them....they told me they wanted water, wine, maybe a boat....then the day before I finished the painting they added the request of a palm tree.  Personally, I think the palm tree really added A LOT to the mood of the painting.)  I am very happy with this one, and luckily they were, too.
