This is a very small painting measuring 2.5 x 3.5 inches.
I began this painting, creating magenta clouds....
There are 3 trees here, in the colors of purple, magenta and black.
And, there is an ovoid shape within the black tree. I have entitled this painting, "The Ovoid in the Tree."

small painting of Black and Gray trees
I challenged myself to create a painting only using the colors of black and white.
And, so I created this small painting that is a rendition of 2 gray trees and one black tree, that is in the foreground.

Small Landscape Painting - 1/2013
Her is my new small painting (in gouache on paper) that measures 3 x 5 inches!
It is certainly small in size. I very often work on a small scale.
This piece was time consuming to create, regardless of its size. There were certain details that I wanted to render in a particular way and so I needed to apply many layers of paint in order to create what I had in mind.
It is always difficult to know when a painting is completed; the smallness of this piece made it easier to "know" when it was completed...
The palette is a cool one.
Thanks so much for viewing my painting!

Purple Tree - swirling branches
This is my painting of a tree, that is mostly purple in color....
It is new for me in that I purposely did not pay closest attention to details, in an attempt to loosen up in my work.
Thanks for looking at my artwork, as usual! I seem to be enjoying working with the colors of magenta and purple, lately.

small painting - Bare Red Tree
It is a brutally cold and windy day during winter.
This painting is of a tree that is surrounded by a cloudy sky. It is also bare of leaves. It is feeling a sense of loneliness.
