#121 Painting Flowers In My Studio




#121 Painting Flowers In My Studio!
20" by 20" on wrap around canvas

As the sun colors flowers, so does art color life.  ~John Lubbock

My friends, Claudia and Adele, came to paint in my studio today and we decided to paint a floral using flowers from Claudia's garden and a vase I had on hand.  It was fun as always to see what we each painted.  I do not have this one cropped intentionally because it is not finished but I wanted to stay true to posting a painting each day. When this piece is completed it will be put straight into my available works.

Norma Wilson Original Oil English Robin Bird Art


Sweet Bird On A Limb

6" by 6" original oil on wrap around canvas with sides painted.

Keep a green tree in your heart and perhaps a singing bird will come.

I am not sure if this little bird sings but he looks like he sure looks like he has a song to share and I think he sure is sweet!

I had a great day today at a pool party with my son and friends and feel very restored and ready to begin another busy week! Thanks for stopping by and hope you have a great Monday!

Garden Bluebird


Garden Bluebird

6" by 6" original oil on gallery wrap canvas with 1 and 3/4 inch sides painted.

It was great getting back in my studio today and getting back to work! I stopped first at Jerry's Artarama and picked up some paint and canvases. I also got some free DVD's to watch of some of my favorite artists at work. It is a great deal if you have not checked them out. You can keep them out for 2 weeks without giving them a deposit but they keep your credit card on file in case you lose one or don't return them.
Tonight is Andrew's last soccer game of the season. The weather is nice so it will be great sitting
out in the bleachers. Sean and his dog Brewsky began their trek along the Appalachian Trail today with friends. I wish I could observe some of the antics I know they will be getting into. Brewsky is in his element and even has his own doggy backpack. My other son, Patrick, is picking them up when they get forty miles along and will bring them back. They were going to try to do it for ten days but one fellow got a job and another had an opportunity to go on a trip.
Well, hope your week if off to a great start! This piece is available for 70.00 plus 4.50 shipping and handling. The buy it now button is below or you can e-mail me with any questions.

Ramblin' Rooster


Ramblin' Rooster Returns
8" by 8" original oil on wrap around canvas with 3/4 inch sides painted.

I am blogging late this evening as I was at Andrew's last soccer game of the season. They won big time and Andrew scored a goal. The air was really nice and cool and it was very relaxing. I love this time of year!
I had fun earlier today working on this rooster and love the color. Tomorrow I will be working on some bigger pieces for my gallery and another pet portrait. This week we have a lot of preparations for my son Sean's graduation from Virginia Tech. Hope your week is going well. I will write more tomorrow. This piece is SOLD.

Wren In My Garden


Wren In My Garden

I have really been enjoying painting birds lately. I think I just have spring on my mind. All is in bloom here with profusions of azaleas and dogwood. Last week I purchased a new canon powershot camera with 10 megapixels and this is my first painting to be photographed and posted using it! I am SO pleased with it as the pictures are so much clearer and it is so compact! I can fit it in my jean pocket and take it every where! This piece can be purchased directly for 70.00 plus 4.50 shipping and handling.

Norma Wilson Original Oil Foghorn Rooster Barnyard Art


Foghorn Leghorn


12" by 12" original oil on wrap around canvas with sides painted.


Boy did I have fun with this one! I think it shows. I will definitely be playing more with my palette knives and also different subject matter in the days to come! This one reminded me of Forhorn Leghorn from a cartoon popular during my childhood. Oops! Just dated myself. If you remember him I think you might see something of him in this rooster....i think it might be his feet!

Norma Wilson Original Oil Kiwi Fruit Still Life Art


Kiwi & Red Study


6" by 6" original oil on gallery wrap canvas with 1 and 3/4 inch sides painted.


Recently I have been inspired by fellow artists who use palette knifes and thick paint in their work and decided to do a still life using both this evening. One of my collectors requested that I do a kiwi painting and my favorite color is red so I had to add a touch of red! It was great fun and I can hardly wait to paint tomorrow. I think it will be a floral or perhaps another fruit still life. Unbelievably it is the weekend again! It is supposed to be a very chilly one too. Sean and Brewsky went back to college today. It is very quiet! I am wading through the laundry and straightening up. They will be back soon for Spring Break. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Norma Wilson Original Oil White Lab Dog By The Pool


Tonight's post is a new size and painting surface for me. I decided to do a summer series on archival mat board that has been gessoed several times. I enjoy the look of oil on paper. I love the texture and how it looks with a mat surrounding the image. It is a fun surfact to paint on and I chose 5" by 5" because it is a bit smaller than most of mine and can be matted up to an 11 by 14. If you are interested in this piece and would like a different size matt such as a square mat, let me know.
