64 - Lakewood

Lakewood 6 x 6 Oil on Gessobord SOLD

I love this one! It just has the right amount of colors to make it intense yet calm and serene in a gentle way. This would be the kind of place I'd wake up in a tent on some shore of a lake and see this view when dawn starts. I'd be bundled up with my warm partner in blankets and have hot tea with honey ready and watch the skies unfold in purples and pinks and then brilliant coral orange. :)

60 - Serenity

Serenity 6 x 6 Oil on Gessobord

SOLD

“Be grateful for your life, every detail of it,
and your face will come to shine like a sun,
and everyone who sees it will
be made glad and peaceful.”

— Rumi


I love cherry blossoms and their gentleness and beauty is so indescribable. I'm happy with it's vibrant red patches on the sides and throughout this painting. I'd dream of this place and canoeing swiftly between petals as I weave between thin tall trees.

57 - Geranium Patio

Geranium Patio 6 x 6 Oil on Gessobord SOLD

Slivers of pre-dawn light
slip through the ornate curtains
of my vast dim bedroom
and shimmer about the floor
The brightness hurts my eyes
but the sight of brilliant red geraniums
and the sounds of birds singing
calms my nature-loving heart and soul
Good morning Mother Earth.

Ohhh how I love this landscape scene when you wake up in the morning and walk outside with a blanket and a cup of hot tea. When I visit my parent's house, I'd wake up and see my mother sitting outside by this patio with her cup of coffee. She would always sit by the koi pond that is to the right of this archway, and listen to the birds and water running in this little pond. The koi would be super happy when she feeds them. They are so colorful and delightful to watch. When I have a house, I would build the same archway and a koi pond too! That would be a dream.

56 - Sonny

Sonny 6 x 6 Oil on Gessobord SOLD

This is Sonny the black cat my friend adores and loves. He is very adventurous, sneaky, and very playful like he's still a kitten! I chose the colors pink and purple because those are my best friend's favorite colors and I wanted to make it look fun by adding assortment of dabs around the cat, almost like a spontaneous aura....he looks like he's about to jump on ya! :)

55 - Secret Garden

Secret Garden 6 x 6 Oil on Gessobord $60 SOLD

In the warmth of May
I look at the magnolias
And wonder when I, too,
Will bloom into something
Beautiful.

I love blooming gardens with deep rich colors as they capture the mystical design that surrounds us. It reminds us of rebirth and the new from the old. So breathtaking! My mother loves to plant flowers every year, sometimes different varieties until it looks so perfect. This painting reminds me of our fond memories gardening together.

50 - Dorito

Dorito 6 x 6 Oil on Gessobord Not for Sale

This was a gift to one of my best friends and this is one of her cats named Dorito. He was mature, friendly, and likes to jump up on tables. A very loving ginger cat. I miss him.

I really like the cubic paint-strokes and the nice contrast of the blue and orange complimentary background.

22 - Napoleon


Napoleon 6 x 6 Oil on Gessobord SOLD

He is one of the seven Pekingese dogs my family raised and he has a half brother named Alex (short for Alexander the Great). They are the oldest of the rest. He has recently passed after 8 long years. He was loved and greatly missed. I'm proud of this painting for the neat blocky style that I've found to be really fun and interesting.
