"Peach, Pear, And Cherries"

I've heard that it's difficult to capture the texture of peaches but I think I did a pretty good job of that. I am ambivalent about the background in this painting but decided to leave it as is. What do you think? You can leave comments at my blog...link is below.

Another angel born from my imagination and trusty brush. It's one I wish I had painted larger. This is one of the few recent angel paintings I've created that are still available for sale. I've been very busy getting my Open Studio event in order...printing cards and prints, cleaning up and organizing the studio...deciding what to display and where. I could use a studio 5 times the size of what I have now. It's a huge amount of work and always surprises me no matter how well I try to keep organized.

I also uploaded a new version of my ANGEL ARTWORK YouTube video. Take a peek. Hope you enjoy it!

Golden Meadow-Landscape Of A Beautiful Meadow with a Lone Tree-Original Oil Painting by Marina Petro

ARTIST~MARINA PETRO, SARATOGA SPRINGS, NY USA

"Golden Meadow"
16x20 inches
Original oil painting on canvas
Purchase securely at my ETSY SHOP or email me for other purchasing options.

This painting really has to be seen 'in person.' The meadow is composed of a million little dots. It was very relaxing to paint...dot...dot...dot... and on and on. It would be striking in a much larger version but would probably take 10 years to complete with all the dots. Hope you enjoy it. I'd like to remind you that my Open Studio will be taking place Sunday, November 22, from 1-4 pm. All prints and cards will be on sale, as well as a selection of original works. Hope to see some of you there!

I am delighted with this painting. It was so exciting and energizing to paint and my brush flowed seamlessly from palette to canvas. Oh, if everything in life came together so well...

It's always such a joy to find fruit with their leaves still attached. It makes the painting so much more interesting. I am in a bit of a hurry right now. I've been in front of the computer too long. Just finished and published my angel book and when I previewed it online I noticed an error...ugh...Now I've got to figure out how to fix it and publish it again so I'm signing off now...
