This painting is not for sale at this time

It has been unseasonably warm here in Virginia. The kind of weather that begs for a trip to the winery for a picnic and tasting. With open windows and short sleeves, I wanted to capture that feeling, knowing that in a couple of days, we will again be reminded that it's February.
Enjoy,

Daily oil painting "Doris"

"Doris"
12 x 16 inches
Oil on canvas
Sides are painted and gallery wrapped.
$50.
Shipping $10.
Obviously, I spent some time at a koi pond. I found the fish (and the pond) to be colorful, ever moving and Doris was not the least bit shy. Although photographed in summer, I enjoyed painting this on a dreary winter afternoon. It brightened up my day... hopefully it will do the same for you.

I recently submitted paintings to a European group who wanted measurements in "cm. only". So, I had to find a metric conversion calculator. Yes, I could have done it myself, but I'm lazy and not mathematically inclined. It worked so well that I've added it to my blog! Check it out! If you ever need a metric conversion, from inches to centimeters, just stop on by! It's at the bottom. Enjoy!
