Spent a beautiful afternoon with a good friend and fellow painter painting outside at Lake Lewisville.  We were there for a women's retreat with Grace Bible Church.  Only the second time to paint outdoors and we had a blast.  

Hill Country Oak

oil on canvas

From a picture taken on the side of the road in the Hill Country of Texas.  So much I love about this because it just feels like home.  

Little Bit

11x14 Oil on canvas board

What a delight to paint this cutie.  She's all grown up now, and just as cute.  

Calf

9"x12"

oil on canvas

What can I say?  I love cows.  They are so easy to attach personality to and a calf is even better.  

This is one of the few paintings I did during our sabbatical this summer.  

Camellia in Paris

6"x6"

Oil on canvas

After the birth of our first grandson (in Germany) we took a brief trip to Paris.  Saw this beautiful camellia and had to take a picture.  Having it framed for a door prize at the Grace Bible Church women's retreat.  Hope someone enjoys it as much as I enjoyed painting it!

Truck

Oil on canvas

24x30

Painted this truck from a friend's ranch.  Lots of fun to paint because I loved the subject, the shadows and light as well as using lots of paint and a palette knife.
