Contemporary Impressionistic Floral Blue Bonnet Landscape Palette Knife Original Oil Painting by Sheri Jones

                                                 A Path to the River

11x14 oil on linen canvas

When I prepared for my demo at Pecan Plantation Art Guild I went out to the location and did several small studies.  I wanted options on what I painted for the group.  This is the first I considered.   Here you can see the photo and small study I worked from.  I loved that the blue bonnets were blooming and scattered about the landscape.  I tried to simplify the design, but decided it was too much for a demo.

8x10 oil on gallery wrapped canvas

Spring has sprung and I am surrounded by bright happy flowers. This is a warm up to what is inspiring me recently. I pre mixed my colors and with the palette knife I dabbled the paint on. I purposely left the first layer of alizarin crimson peeking through.

I am so blessed with many great nieces and nephews. They make great models for my recent series.  I set a goal at the beginning of the year to paint more portraits. I thought I would start with photos I've taken over the years of the kids in my family. This is sweet Averi looking cool with these her groovy glasses.

Terry's Paluxy River

10x20 oil on canvas

We gathered to paint the river on a gorgeous winter morning. 

The Paluxy river runs thru this area and my friend Terry has property with it flowing through. We painted in the morning and toured the property the rest of the afternoon.  This is from a newly developed walking path that leads to the family's swimming hole. I know I want to return and paint here soon!

Sadie 

9x12 oil on gallery wrapped canvas

I continue on my quest to improve my portraits and set a goal to paint the kids in my family. This is my great niece, Sadie. When she visits we keep her on the move playing.  We were taking a break and she was resting on the table. I snapped a picture and knew I wanted to paint it.  She was having a two thumbs up day.

A Hollyhock Hello

14x7 oil on canvas

I took a break from posting, but not from painting.  It is part of my daily practice to get to the studio and paint.  These glowing hollyhocks were inspired from a trip to Santa Fe in the summer time.
