Garden Light
12x9 oi on canvas panel
This was painted at Chandor Gardens a few years ago. I brought it out and made a few adjustments recently. Over time it becomes obvious where changes need to be made for improvement. Working on this reminded me of the pleasure I get when visiting a blooming garden.

Spring Trail by Sheri Jones
12x9 oil on panel
Sold
This delightful painting was inspired from the banks of the Brazos River. Spending time in nature, painting, gathering ideas and observing are part of the process. I came home filled with ideas and created this.
It recently sold to a new collector and she said it was a piece that spoke to her and she had to have it. Her wonderful husband agreed it would make a great birthday present. This is why I paint, to share, inspire and pass on the passion of a beautiful view. Thank you Laurie!

Sky Blue Lake House
14x11 oil on canvas
This house is in view from my boat dock on Lake Granbury. I painted it plein air with fellow artist and friends. I invited a few artist over to paint and we were all drawn to the water. The winds were calm enough to create nice reflections in the water. It was a beautiful morning ending with a nice meal lunch on the patio. Thanks to my husband, BJ.
Nature's Glory
14x11 oil on canvas
I seek the calming effects of the lake at sunrise. This is from a kayak ride that made for an early morning on the lake. The changing colors of the sky with the reflection on the lake was incredible. Immersing one in nature and noticing the beauty around you can do wonders for the soul.

Thistle Way
20x16 oil on gallery wrapped canvas
This was created in the studio from a couple of painting sessions on the river. The walk back to the car provided little pops of color with the wild thistles gracing the landscape. I completely changed up the color scheme by premixing colors of my choice. I sketch out big shapes and applied the paint using a palette knife. I left some of the warm underpainting showing.

Waterfall Garden
14x11 oil on canvas
I painted this at Chandor Gardens in Weatherford, Texas. This is a beautiful garden area now owned by the city. The original owner, Douglas Chandor created the gardens over 70 years ago. He was a renowned portrait artist, but his true love was the garden. The city is doing a beautiful job of maintaining and preserving this little bit of heaven.
. It was a calming spot in the garden with the sound of the falls splashing.

Garden Sanctuary
8x10 oil on canvas
I painted this at Chandor Gardens in Weatherford, Texas. I met up with a group of die hard plein air painters. The Texas heat can be oppressive, but it wasn't in the gardens. I painted in the shade and there was a nice breeze to keep us cool. I am so grateful to have so many beautiful places to escape to. This is filled with texture and color.
