Night Love - Original oil palette knife painting by Karen Tarlton

Night Love

9x12

Oil

This little oil is part of a new Night series.  Still wet but will be dry by next week with plenty of time to ship for Valentine's Day. A little bit of colorful romance.

As I get older and wiser, and more sentimental, I realize that finding a soul mate is a wonderful thing. I am so blessed because my husband of 28 years is my best friend and my joy.  I think I paint many romance scenes like this around this time of year as an expression of that feeling, and I hope it spreads!

A lovely and showy bird and as decorative birds go, he is my favorite! Whimsical, expressive color in thick, chunky oil.

Paris Romance

Oil

I haven't painted Paris in awhile and I've missed it! I guess because Valentine's Day is around the corner, and because Paris is one the most romantic cities in the world, I had to paint it! In my mind it is always reflective and glowing and flowers are around every corner.
