Moments in Nature

Here are no’s 12 & 10, they are a part of a four piece set within the 18 series. You can see the retouched complete set below in the other post. These pictures are a little better, but it still remains that my camera doesn’t like close ups, But hey I’m not much for pictures of myself either. When we go somewhere I’m usually so busy shooting the surroundings that I forget to take pictures of the family. eek. LOL shhhh I took this picture yesterday. The rainbow was beautiful as was the atmosphere. It was just barely misting rain along with a golden hue in the sky, my son found this rainbow stretching high right over behind our home. That makes two rainbows so far this summer when before the other I hadn’t caught one in many years. Rainbows are beautiful and always fill me with hope and faith.

Camera wo’s,Ok so my digital camera gets the job done but shooting these small works and trying to capture the oil texture, details and colors well ….. to say the least I am not satisfied.This is #8 and a perfect example, half in focus and the rest is just sliding right on off the card.I am tempted to dig out my trusty Pentax 35 mm all manual camera.Ahh but the ease of the digital, shoot, load and upload has me. I’ve found too that the beautiful cornflower blue color is just not read in my camera.Truly the quality between a film camera and digital is a far gap atleast for the camera I’m using. Anyway it’s interesting as an artist what captures a viewer to bid on or buy your art versus what I find most compelling and inspirational to create. Something that speaks to my heart may or may not speak to yours.RebeccaSome going today some newly listed pieces, see them all hereMy Website,about me ebay+ current auctions, Modern Art Gifts from Plein Air Cafeplein air – landscape painting – art – aceo

Title Imagine .SoldHere are the first examples of my ACEO (art cards, editions & originals).These are the new line I was hinting at and am glad some artists knew what they were and had some fun with in my last post!There are going to be 18 cards in all with a common theme of dark trees, shapes, color and light, becoming more abstract as they are created. I have done small works before in the 3″ x 5″ area but never these little ones measuring only 2.5″ x 3.5″. All it took was diving in. I have always wanted to give it a go and really happy I did.This small format is allowing me to create and progress quicker but they are sure making me want to paint a similar work HUGE. They are created in oil plein air on primed thick illustration board.They will be signed and numbered. These cards pictured above are numbered as following because I have a few different sets in the series.1/3 -1/18,2/3 -2/18,3/3 3-18 Art Cards are highly collectible and so unique. Search ebay for ACEO. It amazes me that these little works can sell for as little as $1 or as high as $100.00 There are some artist’s [ ... ]
