Original Oil Painting, Palette Knife Textured Artwork, "Southern Sunrise" 12x12x1.5"
I was driving through rural Georgia when the sun came up over the horizon and provided me with this beautiful sight.
The piece is highly textured which adds to the appeal of this contemporary artwork.
The 1.5" sides of the stretched canvas are painted black allowing it to be hung with or without a frame.

Expressionist Sunset Painting, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, 9x12" Oil on Canvas Seascape
Well probably your 5 yr old kid could do this....right? Maybe that is why I enjoy it so much.
I may be a slow learner, because it took me many years to get to this point. Mama never said I was the sharpest knife in the drawer.
All kidding aside, I really love the freedom of this piece. Instead of leaving the studio feeling like I have been fighting for hours, I felt very relaxed, happy and ready to sail through the day. I think I need to do this more often!
Thanks for reading my blog today.

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 Painting, Original Wall Decor, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, Palette Knife Oil Painting, Sunset Art, Textured Art, 9x12"
Some days I just want to smush paint around. I can almost understand Vincent eating it. So creamy, so smooth, so beautiful!
When I feel that way, I always get out my palette knife and just enjoy. Remember that feeling you had as a kid in kindergarten?
Right away my shoulders relax.
Enjoy the day!

Pastel Days, Small Abstract Painting, Palette Knife Painting, Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting 8x10x1.5" Oil
This piece was inspired by a sunset on Key Largo. It was a softer, hazy day, but the sunset was just as beautiful as the more showy, vibrant displays we usually see.
The perfect end to a perfect day. Hope your day is perfect too!

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.

Landscape Painting, Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting, Clinging to the World, 8x8x1.5" Original Oil, SOLD
This was a painting, I enjoyed creating! I don't know why, but some days every brushstroke is a struggle, and a few times, everything just falls into place.
For me, this was a" fall into place day".

Good days and bad days. In the studio and out. That is the way of life. So, I try to enjoy the "good" and not let the" bad" become overwhelming.
Here's hoping today is a "Good" day for you!

Sunset and Sea Painting, Small Seascape, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting,SOLD, "Sun Falls to the Sea" 11x14x1.5" Oil Painitng
What could be more beautiful than a sunset, except maybe a sunset over the sea.
I knew right away I was going to have to paint this one.
I used both a brush and a palette knife on this one.....had to get a little texture in there.
I feel like I want a Margarita every time I look at this one....right away I am on island time.
Hope you find a way to relax a little today, too. Thanks for stopping by today.

Tropical Sunset Painting, Small Oil Painting, Daily Painting, 8x10" Oil on Panel
Inspired by a sunset at Mile 0, Key West.
| Purchase here It is hard, not to be impressed, by a beautiful sunset over water! Technically, this is a Florida sunset, but I thought it had an island vibe, so I named it "Aloha". Thanks for viewing!

Tropical Landscape Painting, Palm Tree Painting, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, 8x16" Original Oil Painting
Another piece inspired by the Florida Keys, and one of those glorious sunsets!
I remember this spot well. We were at an open air restaurant on the water's edge. Very laid back with this beautiful scene before us. When I say we were on the water's edge, I mean where the restaurant stopped, (no walls, just a roof) the water started! How could we not enjoy our meal? I don't remember what I ate, or the name of the place, but I do remember it was on the ocean side on Marathon Key. If I could find it again, I would go in a minute, just to experience the atmosphere and enjoy a glass of wine. Sigh! Carol Schiff www.CarolSchiffStudio.etsy.com www.CarolSchiffStudio.blogspot.com |
