View fullsize

This is the first of two oil paintings on offer that make a beautifully matched pair. Please click HERE to bid.

This painting is of a gorgeous vineyard on the east coast, in Virginia. It is nuanced and detailed, with undulating rows of the grape vines in their full glory. The painting is varnished, and glows with it's exquisite attention to detail and color variations. It captures a stunning sunny day and distant mountains, bringing a sense of peace and calm. The paintings are framed in handmade, hand rubbed frames in a lovely grey-green shade and antique gold inset.

Oil on archival board, framed embedded in a handmade, hand rubbed 13 X 13 X 3/4" backed and wired frame with antique gold inset. Frame is a beautiful grey-green shade to compliment the artwork.

Thank you for your interest.

Twomey Show Hanging

I don't quite know if saying "I'm going to hang today" is the best omen, but that's what I'll be doing! The show at Mud Dauber Pottery goes up today for the Opening Reception tomorrow. 

So given the busyness of the next two days, here's my last post until I can take a breather. It's a tribute to Suzanne Crane at Mud Dauber, and her willingness to take a chance on me and my work by letting it show along with her extraordinary ceramics.

Macro Glaze Dauber (oil) For years I stared at cells through a microscope, and I always loved the abstractions that would appear. Looking very closely at a Crane plate I cherish, it was the beautiful shapes, glaze colors and rhythms that appeared in Sue's work that sucked me in.  Thanks Ms. Crane, more than you know.
