Three Little Plums

Three Little Plums
12" x 12"
oil on canvas

Well, the year is coming to a close and I really would like to thank everyone for supporting my art. I can't think of anything I would rather be doing.... well maybe plein air painting in field in provence, but that's still art.. isn't it?

Here is a recent article about my work...

"Blue Crab" by Clair Hartmann

14.5 x 11
watercolor on paper
Sold to a collector in North Carolina

Thought I'd give watercolors a try since it's been awhile. I find that painting in oils regularly has changed my watercolor style and although I don't normally like painting in watercolors, I very much enjoyed painting this.

Big Red Pear

24" x 24"
oil  on canvas

I had done this painting a few months ago in a 12" x 12" size and had it up on my Etsy site. Someone liked it so much they commissioned me to do a larger size! 
That's one way to sell off Etsy!

Olive Branch

7" x 5"
oil on gessoboard

We went to a store today called Taste the Olive, which specializes in olive oils and balsamic vinegars and what a treat! When you walk in the first thing you notice is all the copper vats and tasting cups. I really didn't think I would enjoy tasting olive oil and vinegars, but I was so wrong. Each one was so flavorful it was hard to choose which one I liked best. They even had espresso balsamic vinegar! I ended up with a bottle of Pomegranate Balsamic and Blood Orange Extra Virgin Olive Oil. 

When we got home I made some pecan flat bread and dipped it into the two mixed together... it was heavenly. 

Afterward I decided to paint an olive branch and this is the result.
