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.

Blue and Yellow Still Life With Daisies

This 12" by 16" oil painting on linen is a new still life that I am just finishing. Blue and yellow complement each other nicely as you can see in this flower still life. There are many different textures in this painting from the soft teddy bear to the ceramic blue pitcher.
