Aspen Trees

My new painting is coming along, and I can't wait to share it with you.   I hope to have some photos online soon. I'm anxious to see the final product. Stay tuned to see the completed painting.

I don't know about you, but during these bleak winter days like today, I love having art around me that makes me happy.  Whether it's a Tuscan landscape that reminds me of flowers and beautiful old villas or warm beach scenes that bring back memories of the ocean waves and sounds of the seagulls, paintings can keep those memories alive all year long.  I would love to make those memories come alive for you!  I accept painting commissions and will paint them according to your size specifications.  Just email me at beckydeed@gmail.com.  

New Birch Tree Painting

This year I painted two wooden trays for some dear friends.  One was a Tuscan landscape and the other was a birch tree painting that's in my pictures below.  I love the contrast of the darker background against the golden foliage.  I actually painted these with acrylic which I have used in awhile since I typically paint with oils.  I loved how the birch tree painting came out so I've started a larger painting of the same painting in oils.  It will be fun to see how they compare when it's finished.
