Oil and cold wax " CACTUS COOL"


An oil and cold wax painting done with the pallet knife as it is one of my favorite tools.  Instead of an up and down piece of pottery I decided to cock the pottery to give it a more playful presence with very textured cactus and a colorful abstract background. I recently made it more dramatic with bolder colors as accents. 14 x 11 on canvas.

Palette Knife Painting of Mountains

Image
Mountain Memories Oil on 11 x 14 canvas done with my favorite tool, the palette knife.  Sanded and redid this painting today. The colors and focal point were off and the values are improved. Simplicity and monotone colors are my favorite way to paint. Geometric angles are sometimes seen in my paintings. To view more go to :www.sallyfraserfineart.com sngfraser @gmail.com

NFS? STRINGPLAY a Mixed Media Abstract

Image
The abstract was NFS for years as it resided in the bathroom, because I loved the colors and looking at this abstract. Maybe I should give up and sale it? One of the first forays into making a mixed media abstract. Collages have always been a favorite and this has collage elements on a scale of 20 x 16 on wrapped canvas. The gold metallic underpainting peeps through all around. I'll miss it if it sells. I have been told ,"do not fall in love with your paintings"  For more art work go to :www.sallyfraserfineart.com sngfraser @gmail.com .com

Bees and Blooms , small oil series

Image
BEES AND BLOOMS.  Some small oil series to get back in touch with working in oils. Since I love gardening and keeping a biodiverse environment around my house in Austin, Texas, it is an immense satisfaction to see bees, birds and butterflies flitting around the garden. Winter supplies seeds for the birds. Flowers are not my usual choice to paint , however, it was satisfying to paint a few small oils. These  are Birds and Bees oils are 8x19 on canvas board.
