A fun quirky little piece.  This bird's eye view from the boardwalk caught a couple checking out all the people on the beach.

Vineyard Midwest Landscape Original Impressionism Painting

sold
"Midwest Vineyard"
8x8" oil on primed gesso

Today I tried to keep in mind that less is more.  Keep it simple.  In other words, put down as much as I can with as little as possible expressing it all with shape, tone and color.  I have been painting for years and still have to remind myself of this little tidbit.
Thanks for stopping by and have a good one!

Between now and Christmas I may be working a lot on gifts that I cannot post.  I will try to put some of my favorites on that are still available.

Happy Thanksgiving

Today brings memories of family traditions.  Since childhood Thanksgiving meant spending time together.  Today we think of those that are not at the table this year and hug those that are new to the table.

Contemporary Impressionism Boys at Play Oil Painting 9x12


Bug Huntin'
9x12"
oil on panel



Making boyhood memories.  My son and his cousin were on a serious mission while camping.  This is actually a study of the painting I did years ago.  Sad to see it stored away.  Hopefully it will find a home one of these days.

Girlfriends Sisters In the Park Autumn Contemporary Art Heidi Malott


sold  

"Hot Chocolate and Scarves"
oil on panel
6x6"

These young women were very fashionable in the park.   The rich colors of Autumn made a beautiful backdrop to the colors and textures of fall fashion.  This was a very fun piece.  I am happy with the bold colors and lines.  Very contemporary.
