Forever Brave oil painting by K Henderson

Forever Brave, 12 x 9, oil on board

This little guy is one of my favorite vintage  ceramic figures . He's a little warrior with a tomahawk.
He is standing in front of a wool blanket. Can you tell that I love the color Red?

As I've said before, I love painting the different textures. The roughness of the wool, the shiny hardest of the ceramic and the satin reflections on the table all come together to make a nice contrast

Blue Skies oil painting by K. Henderson

Blue Skies, 18 x 24, oil on canvas

Stripes and Reflections! My two favorite subjects to paint.

I took many reference photos for this painting. I set up this still life on the deck of my house. The reflections show the Blue New Mexico Sky, my pink stucco house and black and white striped fabric. The vehicle for the reflections is an antique silver creamer that belonged to my mother.

Strawberry Delight~Oil Painting by K Henderson

Strawberry Delight ,11" x 14"

This oil painting shows strawberries in a cut glass dish on a piece of battenburg lace.
For such a small painting, it was really a challenge. I like painting glass and I really had to keep focused to get all the geometric shapes just right.
