LAKE DORA BOATHOUSE by Linda Popple

Oil on Panel

It was a bright, sunny day on Lake Dora when I spotted this boathouse.  I loved seeing the light hit this small building and the reflections on the water.  It was a spectacular day!

Oyster Shell by Contemporary Coastal Artist Kristine Kainer

© Kristine Kainer 2014
6x6
Oil on Canvas
Purchase Information

As many of you know, I love to eat shellfish, then take the shells home in a doggy bag.  Recently, I was visiting my father in Florida and had the opportunity to dine on the freshest shellfish daily.  Unfortunately, bringing the shells back to his house, then lugging them home on the plane was not an option.  Thank goodness I had my handy dandy iPhone camera at the ready!  Here's to my model, somewhere in Florida.... You will always be remembered!

Framed in Violet Sunflowers and a Florida Workshop - Flower Paintings by Nancy Medina

http://nancymedina.fineartstudioonline.com/workszoom/1415667

Framed in Violet Sunflowers

Class Demonstration

16X12
Oil on Archival Panel
Purchase Information





Framed in Violet Sunflowers was one of my class demonstrations during an afternoon paint-along session in my Fort Lauderdale, Florida workshop last week. There was a plethora of gorgeous sunflower paintings by the end of the day, and no shortage of fuschia and violet bougainvillea to add some punch to all those golden yellows. I love walking into a workshop first thing in the morning and being blown away by the paintings arrayed on easels throughout the room. Painting loose, painting from life, everyone's paintings are completely, uniquely their own individual creations. Just like people, every flower Mother Nature creates is completely different. Visit my art blog to see what these talented gals created.

Sunflower Sunset and Postcards from the Beach - Flower Paintings by Nancy Medina



Sunflower Sunset
by Nancy Medina
20X16
Oil on Archival Panel


Sunflower Sunset was one of my six classroom demonstrations in Fort Lauderdale, Florida this weekend. Tomorrow morning we leave the classroom behind for a day of plein air painting. My hosts found a charming cottage with a bougainvillea garden, so we shall be out bright and early to paint. I specialize in a "kinder, gentler" plein air, and have a few ladies who will have tables and chairs for their outdoor painting experience, with an ocean breeze and a palm tree swaying nearby. The owner of the garden was so kind, he stopped by my class today with his chocolate lab to make sure we were coming over tomorrow to paint his garden. He was super excited, as he is also an artist! I love these little simpatico moments in life, don't you? 

Stay tuned, I promise to share more of my Florida adventure with you on my art bloggy. In the meantime, here is a postcard for you of sunset at dinner on the beach. Sure wish you were here with us!




The demo collapsed with color....



Wishing you were here....

Fruit Punch Daisies and Bougainvillea - Painting Flowers in Florida by Nancy Medina


 Fruit Punch Daisies and Bougainvillea
by Nancy Medina

Class Demonstration

Oil on Archival Panel


Check out My New Video Here!






We painted daisies and luscious bright pink and peach bougainvillea in my Florida class on Day 1, and spent part of that time trying to figure out what the plural of bougainvillea was/is/could be. When we weren't discussing grammar, we mixed warm and cool purples, and talked about the value of glazing over opaques, and the cool way you can make colorful jewel tones glow in your florals. On Day 2, we painted sunflowers. There's a sneak peek at Bobbi's gorgeous sunflower, a teaser for my post tomorrow so stay tuned to my art blog!

SOLD ~ Hydrangeas and Plumbago and a Space Coast Workshop by Nancy Medina

 

Hydrangeas and Blue Plumbago

Oil on Archival Panel




I am sad to say farewell today to the Space Coast, the warm sun, the full moon over the ocean, and a classroom filled with talented, funny, delightful students who are so lucky to live in this charmed place. It's no wonder my students were so good natured, I'd be smiling, too, if I lived in a place where the beaches were warm and the palm trees grew like weeds everywhere you look. 

As my workshop hostess gave me a tour of her town, I had the funniest sensation I had been there before, though I knew I had never been there. Have you ever had that happen? I told her I had dreamed when I was a little girl of living in a little pink house on the beach. She said there was a line of little pink houses just up the road, right on the beach, not far from where we were. We didn't get a chance to find the pink house of my dreams, but maybe that's all for the good. I'm still holding onto that dream! I'm sad to say goodbye to Florida, but excited to return to San Diego in just a few weeks for my workshop in Balboa Park. West Coat friends, I hope to see you there!

What a treat to teach my first workshop in Florida this week. With a room full of talented artists, perfect weather with a hint of ocean breezes, two jars of chocolate within reach at all times (one dark, one milk), it's hard to imagine what could make this better. Thanks so much to Lynda for bringing in an armful of beautiful plants from her garden this morning, we featured her Mexican sunflowers and blue plumbago in the class demonstration today. Tomorrow we paint daisies and pumpkins so stay tuned to my art blog for more color to come!

This is my submission to Daily Paintworks Challenge and a challenge it was! I've attempted cars - well, one car - once before and failed miserably. Although this is not what I would like it to be, I am fairly pleased with this. It was about my third attempt. Click HERE to view the challenge. There are some spectacular entries. I'm looking forward to each challenge in the future. Thanks Carol! This is going to be fun!
