Norma Wilson Original Oil Bovine Lady Cow Painting


Bovine Lady

12" by 12" original oil on wrap around canvas with sides painted.

I loved the softness of this cow and the expression I saw in her face.

Earlier today I met my friend, Adele, and we painted at a marina in Portsmouth. It was so pretty and great to be outside with all the sounds of the boats bobbing up and down and the birds overhead. I didn't complete the painting yet but might go back next week and hope that the boats will be in the same spot! I am definitely excited about finding more places around Hampton Roads to paint. We decided next time, we would end up having lunch at a place near our destination! If you are interested in this painting, e-mail me at normasart@cox.net!

Norma Wilson Original Oil Rootin Tootin Rooster


Rootin Tootin Rooster
18" by 18" original oil on wrap around canvas with sides painted.

What fun I had with this piece with lots of rich color as well as sublte greys. I enjoyed using the palette knife and using a lot of thick paint! I think it looks like a very proud rooster!

Today was a busy day with a trip to Richmond and tomorrow promises to be another exciting day of painting outside in Portsmouth with boats as out subject matter. I will let you know tomorrow how it goes.

Norma Wilson Original Oil Chincoteague Duck at Sunset


Chincoteague Duck At Sunset

6" by 6" original oil on wrap around canvas with sides painted.

Every year, my artist friends and I head to Chincoteague for a "paint out" that ends in a show and is run by Nancy West who owns a gallery there and it has become quite well known drawing many artists and patrons. I saw this duck among many others holding up traffic and he was the only white duck and the light was hitting him just so...I had to paint him!

Norma Wilson Original Oil Calf Cow Portrait Art


Beautiful Babe

12" by 12" original oil on wrap around canvas with sides painted.

Hope you had a great weekend! I went to a concert at the beach and it was so much fun! The group we saw was Family Stone which had two original members from Sly And The Family Stone and had forgotten how many hits they had and the best part is the concert was free! They are having one concert a day for the whole summer by different artists. I hope to go again over the 4th of July.
I also was able to paint quite a bit so feel quite good starting the week out strong. I take more paintings up to Richmond this week to Gallery 5800 and plan to paint outside on Thursday with some artist friends. Our subject matter is boats! It should be a really busy and fun week. Happy Monday!

Roll Over

video
I am shamelessly posting a video showing my dog Bailee and my grandpuppy Jet. Well...I think it is cute! I worked on a painting today that is going up to Gallery 5800 next week so I thought I would share this video. I only wish I knew how to make the sound go away with my giggling in the background. It was the first time I have taken a video with my new camera. I hope to video my next painting which is a commission and my client wants to see the progression. I think I need more practice! Perhaps I can post it in stages but eventually want to learn how to speed up a painting video as it would be terribly long to watch! Hope you had a great day! I am watching this while watching NCIS. Can't wait til the new season starts!
