Painting small, Daisy Trio Miniature Treasure oil painting

Daisy Trio
Palette knife painting
Oil on 4"x4" mini box canvas
A sister painting to yesterday's painting, see here. These Minaiture Treasure paintings are fun to paint. It often takes a few tries (i.e. wiping off!) to get the right feeling for these small paintings. It's a balance between enough and too much detail.


My 'miniature treasure' paintings are small paintings, usually 4"x4" that I paint to warm up or if I only have short time to paint (although often they take longer ). The problem is that they are addictive to paint and so I start building up a series. Each one has the same heavy impasto as my larger paintings, click on the photo to enlarge it.

They are a great affordable way to start an art collection and will add spots of colour around the house. They can be framed or displayed on a mini easel.

They also make great gifts.

A challenging painting for the Facebook Challenge from Evhe. Evhe post two challenges a month and this is the second time I have participated.
This is the reference photo

Quite a complicated scene and, as you can see, I simplified I always like to take part in these kind of challenges as I love the different way artists interpret the same scene.

Orange Delight oil painting

Orange Delight by Marion Hedger
24cmx18cm oil on canvas board

I have a gerbera plant growing in a garden pot for the last 4 years or so. It produces these vibrant blooms each year, although it gets so little attention.  I placed one in a faceted triangular vase which I really like - although the shapes and reflections were hard to paint. I placed the vase on some old stripey curtain fabric. The challenge on Daily Paintworks that week was "stripes".
This is part of my garden 101 daily painting series.

Dancing Rudbeckias pastel painting

 Dancing Rudbeckias pastel painting by Marion Hedger
20x20cm (8"x8") soft pastel on sanded card

This is one of my favourites, probably because I have a soft spot for the pink/turquoise colour combination which I think fit so well together.
