On the Easel - Pink Rose and Teacup Oil Painting Underway

On my easel right now is a 8" by 10" oil painting of a pink rose and a teacup. I am probably about 3/4 done with this original painting. This painting has nice contrast from the dark background to the lighter objects in front. There is texture from the brick shelf and then the contrasting white drapery that the objects are sitting on. The detail on the teacup has taken some time and I still have work to do on the rose.

Check back to see the finished oil painting. Hopefully in the next couple weeks.
Thanks, PJ Cook

"Orchids" Original Oil Painting - Still Life With Flowers

"Orchids" is an original oil painting on a 12" square gallery wrap canvas. I decided on a view of the glass vase with these orchids from above. Looking down on the subject I was able to show the lace and the wood  grain along with the shadows. On a gallery wrap canvas the painting wraps around the edge of the canvas 1.5 inches on all sides.

Next Step In Lily Flower Watercolor, Painting the Background

When you compare this photo with the two previous photos in the earlier posts shown below you can see that I have covered most of the white paper. The painting is coming together, I can see the mass of lily flowers, the leaves and the background. I have more detail on the left side of the background verses the right where I have suggested flowers and leaves. I did that out of focus look on the right background area by painting that area wet into wet.

I will continue adding more detail but still stepping back and seeing the painting as a whole. Right now I can see my focal point clearly and that is the two flowers in the bottom center of the painting. They stand out from the others because they are bolder in color and have more detail. Remember I still have the masking fluid on the detailed centers of each flower. I will not remove that until I am almost finished with the watercolor painting.

Hand Painted Table with White Lily

This is my latest hand painted table, it is a more modern design than the beach scenes. I have painted many lily flowers in all colors. I like this white lily with the blue shadows wrapping over the table edge. This is a natural birch wood table with an original acrylic painting of a lily flower. Protective glossy finish over the original painting for durability. Table top is 15" diameter with a height of 18". The painting flows over onto the edge of the table top for a 3 dimensional effect, all hand painted! Can be shipped, email or call for pricing: pj@pjcookartist.com or 860-539-4457.

My next project will be two acrylic paintings, one of a sunflower and the other a pineapple. I am still working on the seascape oil painting and should have my next step done soon. So check back for my post on painting the ocean wave.
