I heard him singing before I saw him. I loved the contrast of his dark figure against the yellows of the cotton wood trees. I was on a painting trip in Santa Fe during the peak of the fall leaves.

River Side Impressions

River Side Impressions by Sheri Jones

10x8 oil on canvas


This is the second quick study I did when I visited the Brazos river in the Pecan Plantation. It is always like a mini vacation when I take the time to go plein air painting. The trees seemed to glow in the morning light, providing the color I search for.

Sweeping Mountain Views

Sweeping Mountain Views by Sheri Jones

Getting lost on the back roads of Pagosa Springs we saw sweeping views of the mountains and warm fall colors. We stopped many times to photograph the beautiful landscape. It was a fun exercise to use those photos once I returned home. Using the palette knife, I built layers of shapes and colors.

My garden continues to inspire new paintings.  It is still blooming brilliant flowers with color bursting out. Being in the quiet of the garden is a happy place.  I created a small study before attempting this larger version.

Spring Trail

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

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.

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.
