It has been awhile since I posted any paintings but I have actually been painting. The recent stuff has mostly been oil but you will notice a couple of watercolors in frames I painted in oil.
The painting above is a small (4x4). I painted it to go in a little pre-Christmas exhibit of small art....but it wasn't finished.

The three paintings above are oil on wood--little pieces of I believe pine. These are pieces of wood used to hold cheese plates sold at a local grocery. I salvage them. I don't gesso them or anything, just paint right on the wood. The last one, of mangroves, may not be finished yet. The first one I was going to tinker with more but thought I might actually make it worse.
I bought this piece of red oak (a scrap from a Home Depot) to use as a little table for painting watercolors while I was housesitting/catsitting and didnt want to ruin my friend's coffee table. I used it then it sat around for awhile and I painted some background color on it. Then it sat around some more unti I picked it up and started with some details. I had to (and perhaps have to) resist the urge to tinker with it more.
The two pieces above are 6x4 watercolors in little frames I painted with oil. The one on the right has been posted here before but I do not think the one on the left ever was.
