Abalone Shell by Kristine Kainer

Oil on Gallery Wrapped Canvas
20 x 20 x 1.325
Purchase Information

One of the most mesmerizing of shells is the abalone. As a child, I had a large one (purchased in a beach gift shop during a family vacation in Nagshead, North Carolina). I kept my favorite pieces of jewelry in it for years. Sadly, it disappeared some time after I graduated from college (any ideas, Mom?) and I’ve always regretted not having one to paint. (If you are familiar with my work, I ADORE painting sea shells.) Recently, however, I acquired a “new” abalone shell. Look out, world—this is my first abalone painting, but it won’t be my last!

TERLINGUA SHADOWS by Linda Popple

9 x 12
Oil on Panel

One Thanksgiving we spent the holiday at Big Bend National Park.  Across the Rio Grande River is a small Mexican village, Terlingua. I took a few photos and used one as a reference for this painting.  Working on this brought back many a good memory!
