Pale Pink Ginger

Pink Bliss
4" x 4"
Finished this little gem earlier today.  This miniature is on stretched canvas on 3/4 inch stretcher bars.   It is painted on the sides so you don't need a frame unless you want one.     By the way, a wonderful company that makes custom frames  (for the very tiniest of paintings....as well as larger frames) is www.frankenframes.com or call them at 800.322.5899 .  

Everywhere you go in Hawaii there are beautiful ginger flowers.   I especially enjoy the pale pink variety shown in the painting above.    The rich red ones and the dark pink flowers are equally lovely, however.  

I am pricing this size painting at $70 .    I have also begun a painting of a pale pink Hibiscus blossom this same size.    Check back soon to view it; it would make a perfect companion to "Pink Bliss".

Seven Koi Among Seven Waterlilies



6" x 6" Acrylic on canvas
$300


This is a brand new miniature that was a so enjoyable for me to paint !  Well, I always enjoy painting no matter what !   But this was a subject that I had not painted in several years and it felt so natural and comfortable to be painting Koi and waterlilies once again.    It was such a wonderful experience for me that I have started another similar miniature but with a different arrangement and only one waterlily.     Please visit here again soon to see this new work.  


Remember, I enjoy all your comments and any questions you may have.   As always, shipping is free if you live in the USA.

Asparagus For Dinner


                                                    6" x 12" acrylic on gallery wrap canvas
                                                                        $500


I have not posted to this blog in a few days because I have been working on larger paintings, for the most part, and posting them to my main website  http://www.reynoldsrenditions.com/.   So I am definitely very busy working on several larger paintings at one time right now.   Soon I will be  starting some miniature works, but in the meantime thought you might like to see one of my newer works.   I had so much fun painting this .... it was the first time I had ever painted asparagus.   There will definitely be more fruit and vegetable paintings in the future. 

Please contact me at reynoldsrenditions@gmail.com if interested in purchasing this painting.    As always, your comments are most welcome.

"Unexpected Encounter"

                                                                      $300

This is a scene outside of Salt Lake City, Utah, which I took some liberties with concerning color and the addition of the adobes and the deer.   Painted this with much enthusiasm !     Brings back memories.

"Near Santa Monica"


                                                        5" x 5" Acrylic on gessobord
                                                                    $185


Santa Monica beach and town are in the distance and to the far right of this beach (not shown in this painting, of course).    I really enjoyed Santa Monica whenever I visited California, which was often.  The town as well as the beach and pier were a pleasure to visit.    Many years ago I painted several watercolors of the area; perhaps I'll post a couple of them in the future.   I do not remember the name of the beach in this painting above, which I painted from a reference photo I took many years ago.

"Myrtle Edwards Park - Seattle"


5" x 5" Acrylic on gessobord
$185




Reference photo for the above painting


As you can see, I changed things a bit in the painting rather than going totally by the reference photo.    I took this photo 10 years ago during a short stay in Seattle.   In the future I hope to do a larger painting of this scene and I may paint the water a pinker hue then.   This particular park has many flowers, particularly roses.   It is right near downtown and is popular for joggers as well. Near there is a park with many outdoor sculptures.   Seattle has some beautiful surrounding scenery and mountains, but I prefer Hawaii.
