Following My Path, Contemporary Landscape Paintings by Arizona Artist Amy Whitehouse



11" x 14" Oil, $175

This was painted with pure pigment oil sticks and 
old fashioned oil paints.
The paint sticks give such vibrant colors
as there is no binder involved ~ just pigment!
This landscape reminds me of New Mexico,
but it could be Florida, California, or any place
that it takes you.

New Mexico Skies, Contemporary Landscape Paintings by Arizona Artist Amy Whitehouse



11" x 14" Oil, $175

This is one of my favorites, painted with pure pigment sticks ~
that's what gives it such rich color ~
and I hope it finds a "forever home" where it will be loved.
Of course this may look like California, Arizona, or any number of places;
it may remind you of a path you are on in your life right now.
I'm in the process of packing up to move,
and so am reducing prices to spur sales;
I'd much rather these artworks go to homes than spend time
in moving boxes.

If interested in purchasing this one, please contact me:

Last Light, 6x6 oil painting by Stevie Denny

Last Light
6x6 oil painting
on masonite panel

I did this little painting from a photo while taking a class with Dick Heichberger, a well-known local landscape artist. When I started painting on this panel, I noticed that the grain of the wood really shows, but it's still a nice painting. 

This painting is available through an online auction at Daily Paintworks.

Blustery Day at Sea, Beach and Ocean Paintings by Arizona Artist Amy Whitehouse



6"x8" Oil, $95

As usual, I'm missing the ocean
even though we got 2-1/2" of rain here in the desert today.
I long for the ocean breeze, and cool water to wade into,
the warm sun soaking into my bones.

Pilgrim's Progress, Contemporary Landscape Paintings by Arizona Artist Amy Whitehouse

This landscape painting with dramatic lighting in the sky
makes me think of John Bunyan's classic, Pilgrim's Progress.

finished off with touches of R&F pure pigment sticks.

Day 39, Drifting white clouds plein air oil landscape painting by BECKY JOY

© 2013 Becky Joy     Day 39, Clouds      oil    6 inches x 6 inches    $125.

 Hi everyone,
I didn't paint yesterday. I had a family situation come up and went to my daughter's late on Thursday night. Yesterday I spent the whole day there. She has been having a difficult time lately. She has three children, has been going to school full time, 4 years and now starting her last year. This summer she has been going through a divorce which, like a lot of cases, hasn't been easy. She needed my help yesterday, so I put the paints and computer away and went over there to help. Everything is better, but we are all tired. My oldest grandson is off to football camp in CA now (his second year of varsity as a sophmore and a great kid). The next one, a young teenage girl has been off doing girl things with a friend, each staying overnight at each other's houses (and last night I took them to the movies). The youngest girl who will be in the third grade has just been playing with her neighborhood friend, back and forth to each others homes. All is well there and now all is well with my daughter. I cleaned, made dinner and took some pressure off of her for the day.

So, on to my painting today. I took it easy today, went out on my back patio and painted the passing clouds, a peaceful scene. I also gathered four paintings and frames that I will be shipping off to the Good Art Company Gallery in Fredericksburg, TX. That was the extent of my day and I don't think I'll be making up the painting I missed yesterday. In the scheme of things, big deal. I may have one or two less paintings.

Day 32, Project 125 Colorful Sky painting, Playing with Color | BECKY JOY

© 2013 Becky Joy     Day 32, Colorful Sky     oil   6 inches x 6 inches     $125.

I worked in the studio on a larger painting most of the day. This was another color study for a large painting. I first painted the large dark shape of the tree, then the mountains. Next, was the lower sky color with the red. Everything was keyed off those colors being subordinate to that. I really wasn't sure what I was going to paint other that a large tree. The larger painting has some distant farm buildings and a field in the middle ground, but the colors are very much like this.

The Good Art Company Gallery in Fredericksburg has been doing very well for me and it's time to send some new work to them. They need more. That's a good thing to hear nowdays.
In Fredericksburg, TX I will be teaching a workshop  Oct 24 - 26. The Texas Hill Country is a beautiful area to paint.

I just got more information on my Tuscany, Italy workshop June 7-17, 2014. If you book the workshop before Sept 1, 2013, you will get the lowest price with 2013 prices instead of the 2014 price. Let me know if you are interested and I will get more information for you. beckyjoy@beckyjoy.com

I still have my e-book at a great price of $9.95, Create Beautiful Paintings Using Foundational Concepts

Day 29 & 30 Sunset oil paintings. Project 125 BECKY JOY

© 2013 Becky Joy    Day 29, End of the Day     oil on panel   6 inches x 6 inches  $125.

© 2013 Becky Joy    Day 30 Sunset Stroll    oil    6 inches x 6 inches    $125.

Hi everyone, 
I told you that I had another painting done that I hadn't photographed. I pulled it out this afternoon. Day 29, End of the Day was actually painted in Shanna Kunz' studio in Utah before I came home. Today I painted #30, Sunset Stroll. Both are 6"x6" and $125. each. They are both paintings that I was playing with color. I like to put together some combinations of paint that artists don't readily combine, dioxazene purple and bright green, d, purple and lemon yellow, d. purple and cad orange and of course, scooping up all the paint for grays. Experiment, try new combinations.

I'll be painting more studio paintings in the next couple of weeks until I take off for Colorado or maybe a day here and there where I might brave the AZ heat. Or, maybe not. Meantime, back in the studio for some studio work and to supply the galleries. Today's finished painting is below, 16"x20"

Day 25, Project 125 Baker City Oregon plein air oil landscape painting BECKY JOY

textured painterly cloud painting
© 2013 Becky Joy     Baker City Oregon Clouds   oil on panel     6 inches x 6 inches  
It is been a challenge with the computer the last couple of days. I left my family in Oregon 2 days ago and have been on the road. I stayed the night in Baker City, Oregon which is in Eastern Oregon. The internet access that I had was verrrrry slow, but I did manage to get some work done. And, that was the problem, some but not all the work. I uploaded my new e-book, but was not able to finish the job. So, those that paid were not getting the e-book. Once I got to my friend, Shanna Kunz' house in Utah I finally got a good connection. This morning I was able to finish everything with the e-book and now trying to catch up with the blogging, emails, etc, etc.

I've got some more photography to take to catch up. But for now, I'm painting with my friend Shanna!


Talk to you all tomorrow.

Clouds plein air oil landscape painting by BECKY JOY

© 2013 Becky Joy    Clouds   oil    8 x 10 inches   
Free shipping in US
Plein air oil painting from Telluride. It was a gray day with very little light on the landscape. I couldn't find too much to inspire me where I was except for the clouds. Clouds are always interesting and a moving target when painting. You need to paint the essence of what you see.
Check out my workshops for new ones that are periodically added.
