Mary B Spires Watercolor & Art Stuff

10"x 8" Oil on Canvas Board Convention is over, classes went great, plus I got to meet new students and visited with old friends. I can't believe it's been so long since I painted and had something I could post. I have been working on landscapes, but it's isn't going well! It's about practice! urg ! I have made a few changes, I joined an on line gallery Artid Gallery. It's a great gallery with wonderful artist in all media. For a small monthly fee you can put your paintings in their eBay store for 30 days. If the painting sells you pay a small commission. I hope to get it up and running this week. I haven't posted anything in my Etsy store, but hope to get caught up this week.

6"x6" Oil On Panel This is the last one in the series, the lemons are looking so bad! Also I didn't want to spend $1.99 for 3!!!!!! I love the reflections on the B&W Tile....it really was a learning experience...I had to use black paint and the yellow/orange keep getting muddy.....

6" x 6" Oil on Panel This is the 3rd in my weekly series of the Vidalia Onion.....what a fun subject. I think the series is the best way to go to get the practice. I still have to get a better way of photographing the painting.....

6x6 Oil on Gesso Board This was painted from a photograph that I took a couple of weeks ago. It was one of those bright perfect spring days in Florida. 104
