A Daily Desire

Each day brings a new adventure. An opportunity to capture a little of what I see as beauty in the world around me. Painting in different mediums gives me the chance to capture my mood and my art on canvas or paper.

Teaching, painting on location, or at my easel in the studio brings me great joy.

Yellow Rose Painting


The American Rose Society has a wonderful garden outside of Shreveport La. which is only 80 miles from me. April is a wonderful time to visit it. This oil painting is done on a 24 x 24 stretched canvas from a photo I took last April. I started it yesterday afternoon and did some glazing in transparent oils today. I am trying to learn to photograph these oils with out a glare when they are still wet! There must be a way to do it!
