Four Rotary Garden paintings

Below the paintings professionally framed...double mat, chrome frame (pinkish bronze in color)


A set of four miniature acrylic paintings of the Rotary Garden for my own house...again these where done a few years back. Since I'm organizing all my art, including paintings for myself...this is For Sale.
                              

Monet-ish in style

As I was organizing my art, taking many out of their frames so that I'd have more room and less art clutter.
I arranged all my art according to medium and size, put them in acid-free folders and filed them into storage bins according to the sizes...sure is a good feeling to pack down in size. 
I did this quick painting a few years back and had forgotten all about it...I went to the Rotary Garden in town and painted Plein Air. I had a piece of cardboard and didn't want to throw it away because it looked good to paint on. 
Oddly enough, many Masters painted on cardboard and the paintings lasted to this day...so much for acid-free.

A memory captured...on a Rock

My friend Dr.Pia Salk commissioned me to do a small painting for a friend of hers who is also involved working with Adopt-a-Pet. Her friend had just lost her own adopted/rescue dog, Ms.Estelle.

I added a pocket rock with Estelle's image, this can be carried in your pocket or purse always being with you.
