Study of a Dog painting

 

"Study of a Dog"

5" x  5" x 1.5", Oil on gallery wrapped canvas

I was commissioned to do a painting of an angel with two dogs and one dog needed to be sitting.  So I did this study.  I love the minimalism of this....I am hoping that if this painting sells, I want to donate the proceeds - my net to a rescue group.  My rescue group of choice is the GSP Rescue.

Holding Hands - abstract painting of mother and child

"Hands"

10" x  8" x 2" Oil on Cradled Panel

Oh my goodness!  I found some 2 inch deep cradled panels on sale - they only had 3 so I bought all three!  So much fun to paint on - the paint just glides on the smooth surface.

 

This started as a commission sketch for a gallery.  I have not heard back from the gallery so I suppose the commissioner is not interested in the sketches I did.  I fixed this up though because I didn't quite like the original painting/sketch.  I made the little girl a little thicker and made her hair more blond or light.  And then I made them more abstract with only wisps of color.

Whitey Tighty - white briefs painting

"Whitey Tighty"

14" x 11", Oil on canvas

Fun painting!  I did fix it a little - I posted this painting on Facebook when I first finished it and had such funny comments about it....like when a woman is losing an argument with a man, all she has to do is play with her breasts and she can win....or that whitey tighty refer to men's undies...

 

The fixes were in her jawline which I did not like.  Now I like the finished painting....she is NOT playing with her breasts - she is covering them...

Kiss - kissing couple on the beach

"Kiss Too"

20" x 16", Oil on Canvas

I finished this painting a few months ago and it had been hanging on my wall.  Recently I sold the first painting "The Kiss" - which is similar to this but the woman has a bouquet of flower in the outstretched hand and flowers in her hair.

 

The couple who bought it said that it remind them of their wedding 10 years ago and this was going to be their anniversary gift to one another....

 

I am so touched!!! 

 

I decided to make a few changes to this painting because I was not quite happy with the results - some of the changes were - his legs were too skinny so I've given them more "heft"  And I blurred his feet area.  I changed her hand to be more closed - the first one felt like it looked like a lobster claw...

 

Anyway - here it is.  Kiss Too.  (2)

Texas Star, the Lone Star State Flag by Judy Mackey

"Texas Star"

20" x  20" x 1.5", Oil on Gallery Wrapped Canvas
Currently on display at The Dutch Art Gallery in Dallas, TX.

Received a phone call late last night from the Gallery that the Texas Star flag painting is out on "loan" to a prospective buyer who will see if the painting will fit in their spaces.  Fingers crossed.

I suppose this is good business practice and galleries who have good relationships with their collectors will sometimes let the collector take it home to see how the painting will do in their homes/offices/lighting/spaces etc.  This may lead to a sale of course but the best part of it is that the buyer will then be a very satisfied buyer. 

I painted a couple of Texas flags in this manner.  It isn't meant to be a torn flag but rather an unfinished painting of just the center of the flag in a rippled, shadowy look with the edges fading into a black background.

Keep your fingers crossed ♥

To purchase - click HERE.

I haven't been posting my paintings as regularly as I should - this is another of the figuratives I did about a month ago.  A couple of weeks ago the Gallery that represents me asked if I'd do a study of a figurative for a possible commission.  We'll see how it goes.
