Recently completed this commission for a collector in Virginia who loves the Cotswalds and so do I. A joy to paint for her and I can't wait to frame it and ship it to her house to add to her collection!

Original oil painting - Paris Rain - by Karen Tarlton - expressive impressionism
Paris Rain
12x16
Oil
Playing with textures and colors! I usually paint in much brighter colors everywhere but to achieve a soft rainy effect here I subdued and blurred the background thus bringing the couple to the focal point, drawing your eye right to the pop of red. I love the romance of Paris! What a city.

sold
A happy, spring moment painting from my imagination! These landscapes are one of my favorite scenes and I always think of either our military assignments in the South, like Alabama, or east coast, like Arlington, Virginia and the spring blooming Azaleas and Magnolias when I paint a scene like this. So lovely and bright with spring color!

Love this guy! There's something about a colorful cow that makes me smile! Lots of thick paint and texture on this big eyed beauty!
My daughter just got her driver's license today and I watched her drive away in my car on her way to see Harry Potter for the third time? Lost count. I still don't know how it happened, but somehow when I wasn't paying any attention, she grew up! Counting my blessings everyday and trying not to stay up late at night worrying too much!
More commissions to paint tomorrow....I promise to post!
