Daily Painting, Abstract Landscape, "Lighting the Heavens" by Carol Schiff, 12x24x.75" Oil SOLD
In this painting, my goal was to capture that magic moment when the sun just peeks through the horizon and night turns to day.
For me, that is the best moment.......knowing I have a brand new day to enjoy.
I did my favorite palette knife technique (which I have labeled color weaving) on this. I find it gives me a great way to blend from one color to another.
I hope your day is fabulous and if you have not seen a sunrise lately...set your alarm for tomorrow, grab a cup of coffee and enjoy the show!

Abstract Landscape, Daily Painting, "Fire in the Sky" by Carol Schiff, 6x8" Oil
Whenever I feel the need to push my art, I turn to abstract. This time, I wanted some representation in the piece.
I started with an old reference photo and worked hard to bring movement and heat to the piece.

Abstract Landscape Painting | Contemporary Art | Palette Knife Painting | HUES by Carol Schiff | 18x36x1.5" Oil
I wanted to do an abstract landscape in a larger size than I have worked with in the past. I remembered driving through the fields of Georgia just as the sun broke over the horizon one morning, and decided to paint based on that memory.
I enjoyed the experience of painting on a larger scale and tried hard to keep the freshness of my smaller abstracts.
We used to say that photos never lie, but as you know, that is not true these days. I just returned from a short trip to New York City with my daughter and grandson. He had lots of fun taking photos that lie. This is one of my favorites.....
We also walked by a sports show being filmed on TV. That is my grandson in the background, making like the circus strong man. Hope they didn't mind!

Abstract Painting, Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting, Triptych Painting
Every now and then, I just have to do an abstract. Usually painting knives are involved. This one is no exception. I wanted to take a square composition and turn it into a rectangle. This us what I came up with.
I have been in North Carolina, in the mountains for the past few weeks. We are enjoying our time here.
The other day we went to the park and had a picnic lunch, something we never do at home. There were ducks and geese everywhere.
We had a relaxing and fun time and our sandwiches tasted twice as good as usual. The crisp fall weather comes and goes. It is so much fun to be in the mountains this time of the year and I cannot wait for the fall color. I will share with you when it comes.
When I work on the computer, I can see chipmonks running back and forth, across the patio. They are so fast, it is hard to get a photo, but I did manage to catch one stuffing his cheeks with goodies.
Have a great fall day, wherever you are.

Abstract Painting, Four Seasons Series - Winter, Small Abstract Oil Paintings, 4x12x.75" Oil on Canvas, SOLD
This is the final installment of my Four Seasons Series, Winter.
With each painting, I tried to capture the feeling, of the season of the year, using only color. It was a fun project to do.
This is not a good picture of "Winter" The actual painting has much more color variation and saturation. Try as I might, I could not get a better image.
Thanks for viewing my art today!

Abstract Seascape Painting, 8x16" Palette Knife Painting, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting SOLD
We are happy to be back in Florida, and I wanted to mark the occassion with a new abstract.
I really enjoyed creating this art. Sometimes it is nice to just get in the zone, no particular plan, and let the subconscious take over.
I love playing with paint and these represent some of my favorite colors. I didn't plan to do a seascape, but it feels like one, especially of the tropical waters in the Caribbean Islands.
The last few months have been hectic for me. This is just what I needed to calm me down.
Have a great day and thanks for reading my blog.

Abstract Sunset Painting, Textured Sunset Painting,SOLD, Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting, 8x8x1.5" Original Oil
I didn't mean to paint this! I decided to do an abstract, with nothing in particular in mind, and almost without my help, this sunset appeared.
Sunsets are one of my recurring themes and it just kind of happened before I knew it. Usually it does not happen that way for me. Usually, I struggle, I scrape, I try and try again. Sometimes I pull it off to my liking....sometimes I do not.
So on those few occassions, when I am happy without the anguish, I say a little "thank you" and put away my paints for the day.
Thanks for visiting my blog today.

Abstract Oil Painting, Daily Painting, Textured Art, "Rainy Day in Albany" 10x10x3" Contemporary Art SOLD
This painting was a happy accident! Well, maybe not the painting, but the total effect.
I purchased some art supplies online and was very surprised (and maybe dismayed) to see that two sizes of canvases we actually 3" deep! How did that happen? I thought about returning them, but after calculating the return shipping, I realized that would not work.
So what to do? They seemed so in-your-face, not the right canvas for a delicate rose.
I decided abstract was the way to go. I wanted lots of texture, but still need contract in the texture.
Yes, it can go on the wall.....but why? I love it sitting on a shelf, pretending to be a sculpture.
And guess what! A manufacturer loved it too, so it is licensed and may be appearing in a department store near you soon, pretending to be a pillow or maybe a duvet.
