Commission piece

One of my clients commissioned me to create  this piece for her dear friend.  I just completed it today. 
She shared many interesting things about her friend's fascinating life that I enjoyed interpreting.

In the studio ~ What I am working on..............

This new piece should be completed by tomorrow.  There is a story here to tell.   As you can see, Leo, my new assistant, has become a  bit of a distraction.  My studio with all it's nooks and crannies is a major playground for him.  Hope you are having a great weekend! 
 Catherine and Leo!

Flowers Gone Wild


I reworked "Wild Blue Yonder," which has turned into , "Flowers Gone Wild."  I was never satisfied with the painting before.  Every time I walked by it in my studio I knew it needed to have more going on.  My thought at the time was to do something more simplistic.  I guess that's not the type of painter I am .

Free Bird

This is my newest abstract painting. For me, birds have such wonderful shape and form.  I love painting patterns all over them.    It was difficult to get a good cropped shot of the entire border.  This piece really needs to be seen to fully appreciate all the detail. Red is the color of the day.  16x20 painted on stretched canvas.  The sides have been painted so no frame is needed.

Partridge on an Orange Bench



This is my newest painting.  When I was in Sicily a year ago, my sisters and I were very lost down a old dirt road.  I actually saw a partridge just like this one in  a yard under an orange tree.  What a beautiful site.  this painting is 11x14 done on stretched cotton and linen.  the sides have been painted so no frame is needed.

The Tree Of Life II


This is my newest piece. Another variation on The Tree Of life. I have enjoyed every brush stroke, every minute of my time creating this painting. It's going to be difficult to part with this one. Although it 11x14 done on stretched cotton and linen I can visualize it much larger also. I could have gone on and on with detail and layers forever! I hope you enjoy looking at this special painting.
