The Masquerader 9"x12" oil

The model today brought a mask to wear which was great fun to paint.  This is almost a two hour effort.   I am happy with this one.   For once I used enough paint and did not overwork it.

Cottage in Provence 6"x8" oil

Sold

Found this picture in my stash from visiting southern France a few years ago.   One thing I loved about driving through the countryside there was the colorful horizontal bands of fields.   They varied everywhere you looked.

Saint-Paul asylum in Saint Remy France 8"x10" oil

Sold

Saint-Paul Asylum is where Vincent Van Gogh stayed for a year from May 1889-May 1890 as a self-admitted patient.   During much of his stay he was confined to the grounds where he made paintings of the garden, olive trees, views from his window and of course the irises.   I took this reference photo when I visited in 2007.

Maddie 9"x12" oil

Please click here for auction information.

Eleven year old Maddie is the granddaughter of a woman who paints with us on Friday.  She wanted to pose for our Friday group and had to wait until she had a day off from school.    She has been practicing for weeks and I must say she was a very good model!   All her practice paid off.

Bernheim small batch 6"x6" oil

Please click here to view auction information.

I like this painting because of the straight on angle of the bottle and the small shot glass on the one third line.

Bernheim is made at Heaven Hill Distilleries in Bardstown Kentucky is the only type of straight whiskey which uses predominately soft winter wheat and is produced in small batches and aged to perfection.  It is not really a bourbon since it is at least 51% wheat.   To qualify as bourbon, the law stipulates that it must be made in the USA, at least 51% and no more than 79% Indian corn and aged for at least two years.   It is a nice smooth tasting whiskey.
