Lemon On Tree Painting, 9x12 Oil Painting, Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting
This one has been hanging around for awhile, no pun intended! Sometimes, it seems the most simple objects are the hardest for me. I struggled to get the correct shape and shading on this lemon until I was ready to pull out my hair.
I should have put my brushes away that day and gone shopping, have lunch with a friend, anything but paint!
It sat in my studio for months, mocking me, this lemon of a lemon. Finally I worked up the courage to finish it and put it away.
Some days just don't work!
Thanks for viewing my blog today.

Dog Painting, Pet Portrait, Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting, 8x10" Oil Painting, SOLD
Today's post features a commission I was asked to do. My customer wanted a large print of the family pet to give as a gift to her daughter. She sent me several images of her dog Bennett.
Of course, I could not do a print, without an original painting, so we decided on a 8x10" oil.
She chose what I considered the worse image. She wanted a horizontal painting and the image was vertical. She didn't want the background to be too strong and in the image, the right eye of the dog was in such deep shadow, it was practically invisible. But........she felt this image captured the spirit of her pet. We made it work!
She was thrilled with the final image and now she owns the original and her daughter has the large print.
Commissions can often be difficult. It is hard to get in the head of your client, and translate their expectations to canvas and paint. When it happens...it's a thing of beauty!

Pet Portrait, Dog Painting, Small Oil Paint, Daily Painting, 6x8" Oil Painting SOLD
Several months ago, I did a post consisting of dogs I have painted over the years. The post generated a new commission from a high school friend who follows my blog.
Thanks for reading my blog today.

| SOLD |
She sent me several images, but this was her favorite. I had admired this image on facebook. It was a picture of her, with her pup on her lap, both of them staring intensely into the camera.
Sadly, this sweet dog is no longer with us. My friend was so affected by the painting, she cried when she saw it. I was affected by her response and got a little teary eyed too.
I know she is missing her companion, especially over the holidays. I hope that in some small way, this portrait helped to fill the void.
In my next post, I will show you another dog portrait commission that I completed over the holidays.

Abstract Triptych, "Confetti" 5x15" Oil
Today, I am posting something new to me.....my first abstract triptych! I really enjoyed working on this and hope to do more in the future.
I have not quite figured out how to photograph these yet...something I need to work on!
It is on three 5x5" gallery wrap canvases with the sides painted black. Each piece is signed on the side.
It works in both a vertical or horizontal composition.
Here is a vertical view.

Daily Painting | Oil Landscape | Garden Painting | The Walk to Freedom by Carol Schiff | 24x30x1.5 Oil
 |
| purchase here 1095. + shipping |
It brings back memories of a trip I took to New Orleans last year. We spent the day driving through the surrounding countryside and toured two plantations that bordered the Mississippi levy.
As you can imagine, the grounds were stunning, but I couldn't help but think of the slaves who toiled there.
 |
| detail |
I painted using both a brush and palette knife. I love the texture a palette knife brings to a piece. I think it adds so much interest.

| LIKE ME ON FACEBOOK FIND ME ON ETSY PRINTS |
I painted the sides of the canvas black. This garden landscape will work well either framed or unframed.
Don't forget to pin it, please.

Small Coneflower Painting, Flower Painting, Floral Painting, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, 6x8" Floral Landscape
I planted coneflower (echinacea) around my home in the Blue Ridge Mountains. So...of course, I had to paint them too.
I find them to be easy to grown, and cheerful, with their giant heads and quirky style.
I painted several coneflower paintings last summer, in many sizes and styles. Somehow, this little one was overlooked and never posted.
All in all, I feel good about the results. Hope you like it too.
Have a blessed day!
