Field and Barn oil painting by BECKY JOY

This 6x6 oil on board is Farm Field. The painting is for sale on my website at www.beckyjoy.com.  With the purchase of this painting, you will receive a small black wrought iron display easel. The painting is finished on the edges of the board and varnished. With the easel you have the choice of framing it or displaying it on the easel.


I used both the palette knife and the brush on this painting. You can see more texture as you move into the foreground. This gives the painting more space and depth which I think is especially important in a scene like this with the distant trees and mountains.

Even though it is Sunday, I got a lot of painting done today. I started the day with a good game of bowling and a good day of painting. It was one of those days that things were coming together. Last week I felt pretty inept at painting. Oh well, sometimes it isn't easy.

I should have a productive day of painting tomorrow. No plans other than painting. :)!!!!

Field and Barn oil painting by BECKY JOY

This petite oil painting, 6x6, is for sale on my website  www.beckyjoy.com

I loved the distance in this scene with the flat field going into the distance. The shadow of the tree also added a lot of interest helping to frame the painting. I changed the color of the building several times before settling on this color. If I had made the building brighter in color, your eye would have gone to that. I wanted you to go back into the distance and move around.

I got a lot of painting done yesterday and today finishing a couple of 11x14's which I will reveal later.

I will post later.

Red Barn daily oil painting by BECKY JOY


6x6 oil on canvas, The Big Red Barn, is available on my website SOLD
This barn is different for me because it is in good shape and still standing. I usually go for the derelict buildings. I liked this one because it was sitting up on a hill and looked even bigger than it was. All the different colors of red were interesting and of course, the green moss than contrasted with the red. This was in Oregon which explains the moss on the roof. All that moss, it won't be long before this barn will be a derelict building.


I still have my drawing for a FREE painting going on for the sign up of my newsletter for the month of July. Sign up and you will be in the drawing. I didn't get my newsletter out for June because of moving and now I've been catching up with painting and little jobs around the house like painting moulding.
