I am getting ready for my solo show at Northport Landing Gallery that will start September 1st and it will be there for a month.
These are two new paintings that will be at the show. I have done yellow tulips and pink calla lilies before and I like it so much that I decide to revisit this idea with different compositions.

In my last post I had a few small oil paintings I finished in last 6 month. Here is a good example how a small painting idea can be revisited in larger and more detailed painting.


“Frosty Day”, Oil on canvas 12”x16”
Original painting is available for sale.


The close up view - fragment of the painting and the frame.

I like to paint the small paintings before I move on a bigger scale. It gives me some sense of color pallet and composition for the future paintings, but some ideas just simply look great in a small size. These 5 mini oil paintings are done on 6”x6” wrapped canvases with painted edges. Each painting is available for sale for $150.

Last Wednesday I went to paint out with a few artists to the Reid State Park. The day was absolutely gorgeous. It was very warm and breezy. All my friends were busy painting, but I was exploring the park and was watching waves. There is something magic in crashing waves! I finished a few small paintings after this trip.
