"HOUSE BY LAVENDER FIELD" 8"x10" oil on panel

One of my favorites......it got a new home (frame).  A gift from Marie.   Grazie

"UMBRELLAS AND ROSES" 8"x8' oil/panel

And this, a quick one, lots of paint..........fun

"ALONG LOMA LARGA" OIL ON CANVAS

Haven't painted much lately and went back to a favorite subject.....but this time an 8"x16" canvas.  I think the subject is better suited to this size canvas........also liked working on stretched canvas rather then canvas board...think the extra cost is worth it.
