A Perfect Day 
12 x 9 ” oil on canvas
starting bid:  $75

The Virtual Paintout - an art challenge using Google Street View - has gone to Cambodia this month. I toured around villages, jungles, farms and cities looking for the best place to paint. I happened upon this lonely road on a stunningly beautiful day. It was so perfect, just as it is, that all I had to do was capture it. That was the challenge. You can see it for yourself by clicking here.

This piece is painted on all sides of the canvas. It can be framed, but you could hang it up, just as it is.

The Mill Pond
9" x 12" oil on canvas
 $75


The Virtual Paintout traveled to the Isle of Wight this month, a small island in the English Channel. Using the Google Maps Street View, I looked here and there until I found this picturesque little area, just begging to be painted. The scene itself reminded me of a Constable painting! I've called it the Mill Pond, though I'm not sure it really is one, just looked like it to me. See what you think by clicking here.

A Day in the Country
(Bucolic Bulgaria)
oil on board   9.5" x 13"

The Virtual Paintout  travels through Bulgaria this month.  Touring around with the Google Map Street View, I looked for something I would enjoy painting. It seems like most of Bulgaria is still under the effects of winter - snow on the ground, trees yet to leaf out, the earth still asleep. I've had enough cold weather and was hungry for the sun, so when I came upon this rural area with lots of sunlight and greenery, I know I'd found my spot! I came here for the weather but stayed to paint this pleasant country road.
