Painting for my Kitchen


"The Missing Feet of the Molcajete"
 This painting was done in oils. The colors I used were Raw Umber,Yellow Ochre,Cadmium Red (hue),Lemon Yellow and Titanium White. I named this one after my dad said it looked like a Molcajete without feet. Thanks for the title Idea dad! Love it.

Painting for my Dining room

"Cactus under the Moon"
This Painting has so many colors,which came out perfect in the end. I used Acrylics in Cadmium Yellow Medium, Winsor Blue, Cadmium Red Hue,Titanium White and Phthalo Green.

"Frangipani Flower"
I originally had done this in a green hued color,which I loved,but I felt I needed to change after painting my walls in a blue color. I absolutely love the way it came out. Sadly when I move,I won't be able to bring it with me. I used wall paint that I purchased at Lowes,to paint the large areas of the the flower,the background as well. On the original (BEFORE PHOTO) painting I used a blue green color for background and a cream color for the actual flower. I then used Yellow Ochre & Crimson acrylic paints to highlight the pedals. I used Mars Black & Crimson acylic paints to highlight the background. Then added the final touch by tracing the flower with glitter glue. On the present (AFTER PHOTO) I used Black flat wall paint to paint the background. Also purchased at Lowes.

Painting for my Girls room


"Vacation"
 This is an Acrylic painting I did for my girls room. My older daughter wanted the surfer girl theme. Colors used Mars Black,Cadmium Yellow medium hue,Winsor Blue,Titanium White & Phthalo Green
