Blue Sugar Cane House


Oil on canvas, 12" X 12"

One of the most challenging aspects of being an artist can be deciding which direction to take for a series of paintings. I enjoy exploring a theme be it color or subject, landscape or floral. I actually have several themes that I'd like to explore this winter...one of them being to create more mini-cottage paintings and then see them blossom into larger works.

Aloha Retreat by Jenny Floravita


Oil on canvas, 10" X 20"
Painting can be purchased for $275 plus s/h: from the artist, Jenny Floravita

I've decided to post some of my other size paintings on my "daily painting blog". In truth, sometimes I'm painting up a storm. Sometimes I'm on a roll with small, mini-paintings and other times it's the large canvases that call to my creative mind. So with this post, I'm going to begin occasionally showing larger works.

This piece, Aloha Retreat, is 10"x20.

I know that there's been a lot of doom and gloom in the news lately but I can't help feeling blessed. The sunny character of this painting reflects the joy of expressing my being through painting.
