This was my second acrylic still life painting. I was pleased with the finished product and how realistic it turned out. I have a feeling I will be painting more still life in the future!

Moonlit Tree

| Moonlit Tree, 20x16 Acrylic on Canvas |
My inspiration for this painting was a breathtaking black and white photograph of a tree. I decided to add in mountains and the moon, to create a nighttime scene.

Dark Waters
 |
| Dark Waters, Acrylic on Wood |
This is a complimentary color acrylic painting. Getting the colors just right for this one was tricky for me. I love the way it turned out, especially with the sun setting behind the mountains.
Woods
 |
| Woods, 24x18 acrylic on canvas |
This is an oil painting done mainly in palette knife to show texture in the trees. I painted this using a reference photo that my aunt sent me from Atlanta, Georgia.
Swing on Beach
 |
| Swing on Beach, 24x18 acrylic on canvas |
This was my first analogous painting in acrylics. For some reason I am always drawn to shades of purple, so I had a lot of fun with this one once I finally got the water right.
Enchanted Forest
 |
| Enchanted Forest, 24x18 Oil on Canvas |
This is one of my personal favorites. I love how the painting finally turned out with the vivid colors and trees. I am proud of this one for sure.

Lavender Rose

| Lavendar Rose, 12x12 Oil on Canvas |
Oh, how I love palette knife paintings! Palette knifes allow me to let loose and not be so "careful." I don't seem to go back and change things up as much when I use palette knife. Hmm..maybe I need to start using them more often when painting.
