"Grazing" Oil Painting

8x8
Oil on board
Just off my easel! I love painting horses and this mother and baby belong to the Hanover Shoe Farms. It is that time of year when you drive by the fields of mothers and babies and I have to stop and take pictures for future paintings.

"Yellow Gold" Oil on board

4x6
Oil on board
I am in a spring flower painting frenzy lately! I just can not wait to see these beautiful flowers appear in my garden so I am glad I took plenty of photos over the years so that I can paint them in the colder months. The reference photo I took of these dafodills had the warm colors of the mulch in the background which really made the yellow flowers stand out. Hope you enjoy them!
