A brand new peaceful and colorful landscape.

I did a few commissions like this for holiday commissions and

wanted one to hang for awhile.

This is the time of year when we all need to count our blessings.

Think about what we can do to help others,

and above all don't take a second for granted!

It all goes by in a blink, remember moments like these with a smile :)

Original oil painting My Sweet Angel by Karen Tarlton

My Sweet Angel

9x12

Oil
SOLD

A brand new little angel inspired by my daughters.

Anybody with a little girl may understand why I love to paint these

little sweethearts.

I just got back from a speedy east coast trip,

out to see some great universities our youngest daughter hopes to attend.

Soon I'll be an empty nester, as our other daughter is

already off to university.

It's a good thing I have painting which I love that keeps me busy and out of trouble,

but I betcha I'll still be a mess with missing her.

Oil

SOLD

A brand new glowy, textural palette knife work.

It's raining in California today so this one seems appropriate.

It's just about dry but the yellow colors always seem to take a couple extra days.

I am  so happy to have painted so many of my collectors holiday gifts in November.

Thanks to all and it's been my pleasure.

Many are shipped off and some are on the drying racks curing and will go off next week.

I hope you all have time to email some photos of the works hanging in happy homes, I always love to see it!
