Hot off the easel

Here are a few new paintings, the 2nd and 3rd are to be entered into a local juried show.  My fingers are crossed.

The next challenge is coming up with some new compositions with a little more depth and story.  I'd like to enter the Art Renewal Centers annual Salon for 2012 so I need to design a little more sophisticated composition. 

The last two photos are from my garden, we had a glorious sunny day!
