"Sympatico" - Expressionist Njde painting by Arizona Artist, Sharon Sieben

Sometimes it's good to just let spontaneity run the show! I can define this as a mixed media because I'm not sure I remember what I used. I know there is acrylic pigment here, perhaps ink, Maybe a charcoal mark of so, who knows what else. It's on 20" x 16" paper.

I had done this pose a couple of times before in acrylic and oil with more planning and care; but seemed to have fun doing this one. I might even like it better! The second image is one of the previous renderings.

Beaux Arts, 8x8 oil painting by Stevie Denny

Beaux Arts

8x8 oil painting

on Raymar cotton panel

Unframed

I named this painting Beaux Arts after the fund-raising event at Scottsdale Artists' School last Saturday. It was a fun night and a successful event for the school. I'm pleased to say that the two paintings I donated to the silent auction were sold. I was on the Decoration Committee, and we had made sunflower arrangements for the tables; so we all took some home after the event. My sunflower arrangement died quickly, but I had taken lots of reference photos, and I painted this from one of those photos. Beaux Arts is an annual event, and you can see all the paintings in the auction here.

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

Thank you for viewing my art.

Matilija Poppy, 9x7 watercolor painting by Stevie Denny

Matilija Poppy

9x7 watercolor painting

on 140 lb. Fabriano watercolor paper

Unmatted and unframed

I painted this from a photo I took of a Matilija Poppy at Mission La Purisima in Lompoc, California last year. These poppies have large petals on tall stems, and they float in the breeze like angels. They are so elegant, and challenging but fun to paint.

10x10 oil painting

on Raymar cotton panel

This is a re-work of another painting of peonies I had done, but I always felt something was missing. I think the daisies now have taken center stage, but I'm happier with the painting now.

6x6 oil painting

on Raymar cotton panel

Today I got in a little sunflower practice. I haven't painted much in the past few weeks because of roofers and painters at the house, and it's amazing how quickly our skills decline when we don't paint every day!

Tea Rose, 8x8 oil painting by Stevie Denny

Tea Rose

8x8 oil painting

on deep-edge canvas,

ready to hang

This past year I planted my first rose bush in my yard. I chose it for the color -- I don't know much about roses, but I want to learn more. The rose plant iscalled a Tea Rose, and it produces roses in beautiful colors of peach, pink and white. I painted this from a set-up in my studio, and the daisies were flowers I bought at the market. Now I want to plant more rose bushes, but I have a feeling I should wait until cooler weather, since I live in the Phoenix area.
