"Pregnant Pear" by Clair Hartmann
7.5" x 5.5"
oil on panel
I've painted this scene several times in the past few years to see how my progress has changed my painting. I still have difficulty with it as far as color and I can see my brush work is more "fluid" which is the direction I want to be going in. I do like May 2009's version, but I feel my style is changing into it's own and I'm o.k. with that.

Today is my 48th birthday and yesterday, after months of hard work, we proudly opened the Sun Gallery. We intentionally didn't advertise, so we knew it would be a quiet day to reflect on aspects of what we had done and what needs to be done... it was nice to sit still and reflect after all the rush.
It's a peaceful, creative space, in which I will probably be spending a lot of time... I absolutely love it.
Thank you Susan for the beautiful flowers!

I love watching these birds and always wonder if they ever misjudge how shallow water is.
The gallery is coming along very well. We are going to be open this Saturday. The grand opening will be at a later date with lots of festivities, but if you want to come by and see the new space, come on! The hours will be 12:00 - 6:00.
The hours for the gallery will be 12-6 Tuesday - Saturday

I was researching pugs the other day and came across this wonderful photo of a pug named Hubert and I just had to ask if I could paint him. Thankfully, I was granted permission!
Thank you so much Jenny!!
Love your purses, by the way!

First Gardenias
"First Gardenias"
These gardenias are from a few months ago - I picked a few and snapped a photo with the hope of painting them while they were blooming. I like to get a least one painting a year of these memory inducing floras since they are my favorite and we have about 10 gigantic bushes in the backyard just backing up to my studio and when they are in bloom, I don't have to tell you - it is heavenly.
I mentioned a few weeks ago that I was working on something big - well it's a definite and I feel it is safe to announce since it is in the works. Me and Guy will be opening a small gallery in Wilmington in the next month. It's called Sun Gallery and it will have paintings, photography and jewelry (and maybe some other stuff). I'm so excited and when we get close we will have a grand opening show. Of course I will announce it on here.
