I am pleased to post this news! My latest still life painting (as of July 28th) was selected by by art critic Brian Sherwin as a "Staff Pick" from all artwork recently submitted to the Fine Art Studio Online (FASO) website. It's certainly gratifying to have my work noticed in this way and to be included in the company of two very fine fellow artists, whose work is included in the article below. I thank Mr. Sherwin and the FASO Staff members.
My humble little copper kettle, recently purchased at the antique / thrift store only last week, is now famous! Who wudda thunk it??

Copper Kettle with Oranges and Strawberries by artist Bruce Hancock - selected by Brian Sherwin
(Oil on Canvas Panel)
Artist Bruce Hancock
strives to capture the people, places, color and culture of America in
oil. He captures the energy of a scene by utilizing bold marks and
color. The expressive nature of his work documents a moment caught in
time. Bruce notes that he is devoted to the study and practice of the
art of painting.
Fruit on Satin by artist Amanda Fish - selected by Brian Sherwin
(Oil on Hardboard)
Artist Amanda Fish
has explored several directions in her art studio. However, she
describes still life painting as her artistic calling. Amanda strives to
capture the essence of traditional still life painting -- while at the
same time upholding a fresh, painterly feel and application. Her
dazzling collection is a joy to observe.
Pears & Crock by artist Mark Farina - selected by Brian Sherwin
(Oil on Linen on Board)
Artist Mark Farina
creates beautifully rendered paintings. Mark has explored numerous
subjects in his studio. His still life paintings capture a sense of
magic and reverence. The viewer is invited to observe extraordinary
moments in these seemingly ordinary scenes.

ReplyDeleteHey!! Hi Vickie! Good to hear from you! Thanks for the congratulations too...
ReplyDeleteWill I see you on the coast in October? As the weather begins to ease off in a month or so, maybe we should think about doing some painting in the foothills.
Most definitely will make it to the coast, so looking forward to it! Would love to hook up with you to paint when it gets cooler too.....
