Hi


Here is my newest painting called Jewel of the Ocean. It is a mixed media painting in acrylic with jem stones citrine, and peridot stones and shells. The painting was inspired by my time this summer as Artist in the Park when I was painting the pumpkinseed sunfish. This is more like a "tricked out" sunfish. I entered the painting in the Belleville Art Association's annual juried show "Water, Water Everywhere." It was just too much fun to paint and put together that it didn't seem right that it won the President's Choice award for "Impact". I was very pleased though as that was what I was aiming for. I hope you like it too!
