House Portrait of Rural Indiana Home

House Portrait of Rural Indiana Home

One of my newest paintings here. This was a commissioned house portrait for a client of their rural Indiana home. They wanted their home set back into a quiet country scene, instead of a more traditional closer up view of a home. They were great to work with and I had fun painting their lovely new home in an old fashioned style. They opted for a field of abstracted peony’s instead of the red poppy fields that I paint into some of my rural scenes. Painted in acrylic on stretched canvas.

Farm portrait in progress right now.

I have been too busy to post here for while now.  Right now I am working on a commissioned painting of a custom farm portrait for a client.   This will be a present for their husband so is under wraps for now!  I will plan to post it here on my blog in the future, with my clients ok after it has been delivered.  Here is an example of a previous farm portrait that I painted in the past.  

This portrait was painted for a couple in Sweden of their farm and three pet cats in the scene also.  A fun painting to work on!

Greek Revival House Painting - 1847 House

This painting was sold recently to a collector in the southern US.   I went with a more close up portrait style for this painting of a Greek Revival style house.   I experimented with some new brush techniques in this piece for the lawn and trees, that I have continued to use since.   This piece was done in acrylic paint on stretched canvas.
