Raw Oyster

Oysters have played a big role in our family for years. My father-in-law (more like my dad) made his living as an oyster fisherman, running a skiff out of Pass Christian Harbor. I'd often go with him to help him get done more quickly, and there's nothing like the taste of a fresh, raw oyster that's just been shucked and rinsed in the salt water of the Gulf. Oysters have been the subject of many of my paintings. This particular oyster painting was on Day 47 of my daily painting challenge.

Gold Mandala on Red

A little something different... I like to do pieces like this from time to time when I need to relax and realign. It's a gold mandala pattern on a red background, on a 12x12 acrylic canvas. Rather than list my larger canvases on Etsy, I usually take them to a local coffee shop/gallery for purchase there in order to keep my shipping costs down for my Etsy customers. But this piece is still available for purchase.

Pink Donut with Sprinkles

I paint a lot of food. This sweet little pink treat measures 6 inches x 6 inches and is listed on Etsy here . It was actually Day 76 of my 90 day painting a day challenge.

Lemon Wedged

This was day 42 of my 90 day painting challenge, listed here on Etsy. I like the texture I was able to achieve on the lemon half and wedges. These paintings aren't posted in any particular order other than the way they were listed on Etsy. With future 90 day painting challenges, I plan to post them all in order here.
