Colorful Desert Cactus Art

By Theresa Paden

"Desert Bloom" 

24 x 24"

The desert is so beautiful when it comes to life

 with colorful blossoms! I painted this prickly pear cactus with oil paint 

on a gallery-wrapped stretched canvas with 1.5" deep edges. I continued the 

painting onto the edges so framing is not necessary.

The painting has hanging wire on the back, ready to hang upon arrival.

Here's a close-up shot.

Contemporary Abstract Landscape, "New Horizons," by Amy Whitehouse

I'm enjoying new explorations with my artwork in this new year.

Loving this soft palette, and experimenting with abstraction,

I seem to be embracing serenity on some days of painting.

Land And Sea, Contemporary Landscape and Seascape by California Janet Bludau

12" x 24"

Oil on Thick Gallery Wrapped Canvas

This painting started out with a solid layer of red paint.

From there, I did a simple drawing with very light, thin paint.

I mixed a few colors I thought I might like to use on my palette.

I then started with brushwork but still staying thin with my paint, being careful not to cover up all of my red undercoat.  After I was happy with my colors on the canvas, I went back in with thicker paint with my brushes and palette knives.  Again, being careful not to cover up all my red beneath.  Lastly, I did some scraping with the side of my knife in the foreground which gives us more grass like shapes and again, more undercoat to show through.
