Watermelon and Plums

I was recently introduced to an online art instructor who has a very painterly style.  His command of color and composition drew me to look into his lessons.  Dan has a straight forward approach to his technique.   The following painting "Watermelon and Plums" is one of his  workshop paintings I completed last week.  Dan Edmondson Oil Painting.

Salon International 2012

I'm excited to announce that the oil painting  "A Delicious Subject" has been selected for Salon International 2012, Greenhouse Gallery of Fine Art, San Antonio Texas.  (Opens April 14th).  I'm thrilled and humbled to be among dozens of highly regarded artist selected for this years competition.

"A Delicious Subject "

"Sweet Thangs"

Another small painting for the February Romantics.  Next in the Chocolate food group is "Sweet Thangs".  This is a group of Lindt, Lindor chocolates from my chocolate canister...  Pretty fun.

Dressed For The Occasion

I was challenged to do a couple small works for the upcoming month of February (as everyone knows - the Romance Month); so, I choose two things near and dear to my heart but both in my favorite food group - chocolate.  (Chocolate is not a food group?  We'll it should be!)

The first painting is of a favorite sweet treat... Hope you like it.
