This is one of my new larger paintings. It depicts a hill I pass daily on my way home on Southard Road on the outskirts of Saratoga Springs, NY. I am hoping to photograph it with one of those beautiful dramatic November purple-gray cloudy skies but so far there haven't been any...at least when the light was right for a painting. I'd like to paint this scene in all four seasons.

Another painting from the zone. It never fails to amaze me when I complete one of these. It is always a process of discovery and I can't predict the outcome ever! I've been getting more feedback from individuals lately about this series-above and beyond my 'usual' styles of painting. This is the most relaxing, non challenging artwork I've ever done. I just begin to paint...there's no color mixing at all.I just dip my trusty brush into the color that attracts me in the moment, bring it up to the canvas and it all happens from there. I hope to offer an introductory day long workshop in Saratoga Springs next Spring on "Painting From The Zone." Any interest out there? Hope you enjoy this one and thanks for looking!

"COSMIC STORM" by Marina Petro

"Cosmic Storm"
24x30 inches
Oil on Canvas-original sold
16x20 double matted print available for $35 at ebay here
or...in a variety of sizes on paper or canvas at Imagekind here

Cosmic Storm was painted spontaneously from my imagination. The original is in the private collection of a dear friend of mine. Hope you enjoy viewing it!

A fairly major occurance has taken place which has hampered my ability to paint and produce a small painting consistently enough to post new work here. So...for a while I will be posting older work that I have already photographed...a bit sporadically...to keep in touch.
