"Unexpected Encounter"

9" x 12" acrylic on paper

I had a wonderful time exploring color in this scene on the outskirts of Salt Lake City. The deer just seemed to fit perfectly with the Wasatch Mountains.     Email me your information if interested in purchasing this painting and I will send you an invoice via PayPal.   Once payment is received I will send the artwork promptly to you with free shipping if you live within the USA.

Wake-Up Songs (House Finch Reworked)

"A bird doesn't sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song." - Lou Holtz

"Wake-Up Songs"
9" x 12" Acrylic on canvas (re-worked)
$625

This is an older painting that I worked on this morning to correct the bird's anatomy and color.   I am much happier with this little house finch now.    There are several palm trees outside my studio and several house finches sing away in the early morning; especially when the palms bear their "fruit", which they like to eat.

These birds were introduced to Hawaii from California sometime before 1870.

Below is one of my reference photos for another painting in progress right now.

These are wild Hawaiian Red Jungle fowl found throughout the islands.   Please return soon to see the completed painting.

Ain't She Pretty ! (Hawaiian Green Sea Turtle)

"Ain't She Pretty"

24" x 24" Acrylic on gallery-wrap canvas

Available 

I have noticed on my statistics to this blog that many people are searching for turtles - on the Web, that is.

Since this blog started out being mainly a showcase for my miniature paintings, I had never posted this larger painting before of the Hawaiian Green Sea Turtle, which is found only in Hawaiian waters and is on the endangered list and carefully monitored.  This one is resting on the beach and sometimes they take naps while sunbathing.   I have taken many reference photos of these marvelous creatures....mostly on the North Shore of Oahu.   Hopefully I will find time to paint another one again soon.   

Thank you for visiting today !
