Helliwell, Summer Walks

Helliwell Summer Walks, 12" x 12", acrylic on canvas

Finally after 6 or 7 months i am back at the easel, well apart for one abstract painting it has been a LONG time of not painting, and so not to freak myself out, i chose  tried and true subject matter as a way to EASE back into it. 

The weather has been fabulous here in Portland, sunny and dry all week..I dont know whats happening but i like it!

Helliwell Walks 3, and Framing

Helliwell Walks 3 SOLD, 5" x 7", oi,l on panel, $100.00 + 10.00 s/h

I have been experimenting with framing for these small panels.  In the above photo Art Media has a selection of quality premade frames cut from their custom work.  They are all different and kind of fun!.  I was initially thinking framing had to be all the same, but find that not every paintings suits, and i like better choosing something individually.  The white and black frames are nice because the panel has some space around it.
