Oil Painting
8 x 10 inches

Recently I did a series of small paintings of cakes and desserts.  It was a lot of fun, including shopping for the subject matter!  The 4 that I like best (including this one) will be shown at the annual Miniature Masterpieces show at Evergreen Fine Art in Evergreen, Colorado.  The opening will be next Friday November 21, from 5 - 8 pm.  If you're in the area please do stop by.  As the title suggests, the show will consist entirely of small works.

Oil Painting, 18 x 24 inches

This is a scene in Toulouse, France.  I liked the architecture of the old bridge, the reflections in the water, the figures in the scene and the arrangement of light and shadow.  But as much as anything I was interested in making a painting based on the complementary colors red and green.
