I am offering two paintings today in the December Art Sale because they make such a nice set if you would like to purchase both of them for $400.   Otherwise, they are $225 each.  They are on stretched canvas and the sides are also painted so you may display them unframed if you wish, although they are more elegant when framed.
Although I prefer to send you an invoice via PayPal, I will accept personal checks (USA).   Please email me at reynoldsrenditions@gmail.com if you would like to make a purchase.  Other contact information for me is found at the "Contact and Purchase Link" above.

December Art Sale - Diamond Head Lighthouse And Beach


"Diamond Head Lighthouse And Beach"
9" x 12" acrylic on canvas
$355
(unframed)

Diamond Head Lighthouse is a short distance from Waikiki Beach on Oahu.   This is one of my more impressionistic works; sometimes when I stress color in a painting it will take on a more "painterly" look than my tighter realistic ones.

Again, this is a special price for the entire month of December, after which- if the painting is not sold -it will revert back to its original price.  Email me at reynoldsrenditions@gmail.com  with your information and I will send you a PayPal invoice if you would like to purchase this painting.

December Art Sale - "Near Monterey" (Seascape)


"Near Monterey"
8" x 10" Acrylic on canvas
$325
(unframed)

This acrylic seascape is of an area outside of Monterey, California.   I used my artistic license and added the woman and extra seagulls.   California was very special to me (still is), but this was painted before I moved to Hawaii and experienced its awesome beauty.   

Please email me if interested in purchasing this painting at this special price during the month of December  and I will send you an invoice through PayPal.  Also, view my contact page on this blog for more information on how to get in touch with me.   Again, shipping is free if you live within the USA.

Paths And Gardens (Landscape Photographs)

"Stand by the roads and look; and ask for the eternal paths, where the good, old way is; then walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls...." Jeremiah 6:16



The above reference photos of mine were taken a few years ago at Bandelier National Park in Los Alamos, New Mexico.  The park is on the slopes of the Jemez mountains and covers 33,000 acres.  I have several more photographs I shot of the area, and like I always say "I hope to paint these soon".    :-)    I have been seriously considering how often times people take the wrong path in life -- or the right path -- and the consequences.  This has inspired me to start a new series soon depicting paths in my paintings.   Stay tuned !  Right now I am painting two landscapes, one of Hawaii and another of Nevada, and I am pretty excited about them and will finish them soon so check back often.   Below is my reference photograph of a path at Washington Park Arboretum in Seattle.


I often visited this 230 acre park which is on the shores of Lake Washington.  Fall is such a wonderful season to spend time there.   Below are a couple of garden shots I (again) "Hope to paint soon."



The two shots above were taken in the Japanese Garden section of Washington Park Arboretum.   

I must get some sleep now so I will be fresh and energetic to work on two landscapes tomorrow.  Have a great weekend everyone !

Plumbago At Kawailoa Ranch (Hawaiian Landscape)

"Flowers are the music of the ground, from earth's lips, spoken without a sound."  - Edwin Curran


"Plumbago At Kawailoa Ranch"
9" x 12" oil on panel
$695

This oil painting of horses and blue plumbago flowers is of Kawailoa Ranch on the North Shore of Oahu.  It is right outside of the quaint town of Haleiwa, near Laniakea (or "Turtle") Beach.   I have taken many reference photographs of the area and will be painting more scenes from this ranch, which primarily boards horses.  Plumbago flowers bloom year round here in Hawaii on an evergreen shrub.
