Another pet painting! This is Wilbur who lives in Cape May, 

New Jersey

8 x 10 oil on canvas

This is a painting I did from a reference photo from a FaceBook group called Free Reference Photos For Artists. This one is on display in an art show.

Here is another painting, "Holly". This is one of my dogs who crossed the rainbow bridge. She really was this cute!

This one is currently in an art show in a cafe, 8 x 10

This is one of my pet paintings. I have a lot of them to post. I'm trying to catch up on posting. I'm going to do a series of pets with toys. Let me know what you think!

This one is currently in an art show. It's a 11 x 14  gallery wrapped canvas.

Here is a recent painting I completed. I painted an 8x10 of this first for a commission. I liked it so much that I painted this same scene in an 18x24 size painting for an art show that now because of COVID19 is cancelled. Everything is cancelled isn't it? 

I painted the water in a pointillist method trying to capture the pings of light reflected on the surface. I toned the canvas using cadmium red since that is the mid tone of this piece.

This is a painting that I finished for the local spring art show in the Voorhees Town Center.  I did two other paintings for the show that I'll post as well. But I think that this may be my favorite.

It was fun to paint and also very soothing to me.  Maybe it was because I love visiting the beaches of NJ. Also sunsets are especially good for the well-being of the soul.  

The tide recedes but leaves behind bright seashells on the sand.  The sun goes down but gentle warmth still lingers on the land.  The music stops yet echoes on in sweet soulful refrains.  For every joy that passes something beautiful remains.
