Grapes in a basket

SOLD

Sunflowers in a ceramic vase

Acrylics on Masonite, 36 x 51 cm (= about 14 x 20 inches):

SOLD

This one is a bit larger than my usual thing, and as such I did not put it up on my Bid-or-Buy store, because it is likely a bit too unwieldy to send anywhere by mail. It will hopefully feature in a local exhibition in due course.

Red apple

Pug on the lawn

Acrylics on Masonite, 10 x 15 cm:

Sunbird and Protea Flower

More specifically, a greater double-banded sunbird. Acrylics on Masonite, 20 x 15 cm:

SOLD

The sunbirds (there are many species) are Africa's version of the hummingbirds of the Americas. despite their similar looks, they are not closely related. The sunbirds have a similar lifestyle though, and live on nectar and small insects.

Blue waxbill

SOLD

Tomato and banana

Acrylics on Masonite, 15 x 20 cm:

I have been rather busy with bankers and bureaucrats, as well as some non-fine art projects (watch this space!). But finally had time for a quick painting again. This sort of small still life done from the result of a raid on the kitchen remains an old favorite genre of mine.

SOLD

And another nasturtium

Acrylics on Masonite, 20 x 15 cm:

I have long liked these cheerful little flowers, and the umbrella-like leaves that repel water. One can almost imagine fairies and gnomes living under there...

Three nasturtiums

Acrylics on Masonite, 20 x 25 cm:

SOLD

Rose heart

Acrylics on Masonite, 20 x 25 cm:

I rather like the semi-abstract forms that result when you zoom right into things, particularly parts of plants. I just goes to show that there is actually no very clear dividing line between abstraction and representation.

Hibiscus flower

SOLD

Morning glory

Acrylics on Masonite, 20 x 15 cm:

SOLD

Agave heart

Acrylics on Masonite, 25 x 20 cm:

SOLD

A somewhat experimental piece, perhaps. I have long liked the idea of pictures that zoom right in on a part of a plant, a la Georgia O'Keeffe. Not that I can match her work, but why not give it a try anyway?
