OIL PAINTING OF RED DON JUAN ROSE

NOVEMBER DON JUAN ROSE SOLD
6 X 6 OIL ON PANEL
My red Don Juan roses are always beautiful no matter how much I neglect them. That's my kind of plant, since I have hardly any time for gardening anymore. When painting flowers one has to especially simplify the shapes. (squint and look for the big shapes).

PAINTING BY ELIZABETH BLAYLOCK OF KILLDEER PROTECTING THE NEST

KILLDEE  ON GUARD SOLD
6 X 6 OIL ON PANEL
These little birds like to build their rock nests on gravel roads or around rocks. Their eggs are spotted black and white and blend into the surroundings so well they are really hard to see. I look for them every spring around our little lake and flag the ones on the roadside so the cars want run over them.When you get near the nests they try to lead you away by faking a broken wing and hopping away screeching.

OIL PAINTING OF AUTUMN TREES BY ELIZABETH BLAYLOCK

COLORADO SPLENDOR SOLD

There are very few sights as magnificent as the autumn trees you see while driving through the mountains in Colorado. We used to take a R. V. trip out west every fall and I always saw the most breathtaking scenery. We are hoping to go again next fall.

ORIGINAL OIL OF TWO WOMEN AT THE SEASIDE

LADIES DAY OFF SOLD
6 X 6 OIL ON PANEL
These colorfully garbed women are free free free for the afternoon anyway (not the painting, the ladies). Looks like they have got all their stuff with them. Or, if they are like me, this is just the first load. We ladies can't survive without all our stuff. I don't know how men get by with just a couple of pockets. Oh, that's right, they get their wives, girlfriends, (or mothers) to put all their stuff in her bag! Well anyway this original oil painting of two women geared for a revitalizing day by the ocean's shore can be purchased directly from me.

OIL PAINTING OF BOY AND GIRL PLAYING AT THE BEACH

BROTHER AND SISTER AT THE SEASIDE
6 X 6 OIL ON PANEL
SOLD
Give the kids some water, a bucket and sand and they are totally entertained for an hour or two, fascinated with the shimmering water and shifting sands at the beach. Then after the novelty wears down, the little angels turn into sand tossing, water splashing scoundrels. But we love them anyway!

PAINTING OF SILVER CREAM PITCHER WITH STAWBERRIES

STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM
8 X 10 OIL ON CANVAS BOARD
Painting silver objects is always a fun challenge. You have seen this little green depression glass dessert dish in other paintings and you will likely see it again as I really like painting it. When painting bright reds and greens together, you have to be careful to keep the painting unified. I guess that is why I changed the background three times before I was happy with it.

OIL PAINTING OF LADIES WALKING THE BEACH BY ELIZABETH BLAYLOCK

WALKING BUDDIES SOLD
11 X 14 OIL ON CANVAS BOARD
The beach here in Gulf Shores, Alabama is still full of sun bathers, beachcombers and swimmers. Yes, it is the middle of November and they are still swimming here. I went to the beach yesterday and I did put my big toe in the ocean, and that was enough for me. It was a tad nippy!
This was another painting I did as a demo for my workshop. I wanted to show how the right gesture and a couple of well placed values can describe the figure. Also, when doing figures paying attention to the negative space is so helpful .

PAINTING OF SATSUMAS IN GLASS DISH BY ELIZABETH BLAYLOCK

FALL HARVEST
12 X 12 OIL ON GALLERY WRAPPED CANVAS
SOLD
These satsumas are from a tree in my front yard. They taste sweet and tart, very similar to oranges. This was a demonstration painting for my workshop. I think we all got a case of ellipse fatigue. Remember lose some edges, look for the big shapes and repeat your colors.

OIL PAINTING OF WATER WITH LEMON BY ELIZABETH BLAYLOCK

WATER WITH LEMON
5 X 7 OIL ON PANEL
  SOLD
Well, we made it through the storm okay, no damage here. Lots of rain and 55 mile an hour winds. It pretty much cleared up here by noon today.
All of my workshop class in Gulf Shores showed which was good as I was afraid that little hurricane warning might scare them off, but they were brave!!
As for the painting, rendering glass is always fun. If you are interested in this painting or have questions or comments please email me at eliblaylock@yahoo.com

PAINTING OF GIRL WITH BLACK HAT ON THE BEACH BY ELIZABETH BLAYLOCK

DIANE
24 X 36 OIL ON CANVAS
Sold
This lovely lady was enjoying the beautiful beach in Gulf Shores, Alabama.
I always enjoy painting figures so I find plenty of painting subjects at the beach. If you like this painting and would like to commission me to do a painting of you or your family in a casual setting please email me at eliblaylock@yahoo.com
Unfortunately today doesn't look like this as we have a big tropical storm on the way. It is so dark and rainy outside, I could not get a good picture of the painting I just finished today. I will post it tomorrow. I am hoping we don't have any wind damage.
I have a full class starting tomorrow and will be posting some of my demos this week.

IMPRESSIONISTC PAINTING OF RED APPLES BY ELIZABETH BLAYLOCK

APPLES IN WAITING
8 X 10 OIL ON CANVAS BOARD
SOLD
I can relate to these apples. With this bad economy, sometimes I feel like I
too, am just waiting for the chopping block! Fortunately, I know that God is in charge and things will work out (Roman 8: 28)
Painting the transition between the reds and the greens on the front apple was a little tricky, but I think I got it. I love all the reflections on the metal bowl. Reflective surfaces always present a great opportunity to play with some interesting colors.
