GARLIC
An Original Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell
Thirty Paintings in Thirty Days Challenge
Day Two

'Garlic'
Leslie Saeta's Thirty Paintings in Thirty Days Challenge
Day Two
Oil on Panel
6 x 6
100.00/Free Shipping

I am a huge fan of Leslie Saeta's. Several years ago she interviewed
me on her 'Artists Helping Artists' Blog Talk Radio show, and
recently she started Webinarts to help artists learn how to
increase the sales of their work. When I saw that she was
going to do this Thirty Paintings in Thirty Days Challenge,
I knew it would be a perfect kick-start to my year!

All of my paintings for this Challenge will be done in a 6 x 6 format,
and my main goal while painting from life
is to LOOSEN UP and USE MORE PAINT...
something which will only benefit my work.

If you would like to join this Challenge, or just follow the
work of the participating artists, just visit her blog:

COMMISSION: 'The Stone Wall'
An Original Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell

'The Stone Wall'
Oil on Panel
8 x 16
SOLD

I always like to be part of a surprise, and this commission

was for the man who built the curved stone wall in this

painting. I haven't posted any pictures until I was

absolutely sure that he had received the artwork. It

was also so very nice to learn today from Art and Soul Gallery
that he loves his gift!

Successful surprise all-around.

Below is a picture of my photo reference. I used it for the

objects, but tried to give the painting a sense of light and life.

On January 11-12 2013, I will be conducting

a two-day workshop on 'Painting from Photographs'.

If you are interested, please

contact Brath and Hughes Fine Art Gallery

sun was behind the trees, illuminating the beautiful

colors of the leaves.

This painting is one of the paintings that will be on display
for my exhibit at Brath and Hughes Fine Art Gallery during the
month of December. The opening reception is Friday evening,
December 7th from 6 to 9 P.M.

...WHILE THE SUN SHINES
An Original Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell

'...While the Sun Shines'
Oil on Linen Panel
16 x 20

This is another painting from the Bream Farm, which is right
down the road from where I live. As most of my followers
know, I have a passion for hay bales, and this scene
with the early evening summer light was impossible to resist.

This painting is one of the paintings that will be on display
for my exhibit at Brath and Hughes Fine Art Gallery during the
month of December. The opening reception is Friday evening,
December 7th from 6 to 9 P.M.
