Welcome to the Cannon Art Studio

I started this blog page so I could share my art with friends. I plan to update it with new works. Check in every now and then, or join my followers. I would love to hear comments, criticisms, anything that will help in my quest to improve. Enjoy...

Marketplace - study

Marketplace - Study #1

I want to do a palette knife or quick study painting on this.  I cropped this from a larger photograph and Liked the composition and potential it may have for color study.

Girl in the Lobby

Girl in the Lobby

This is a study.  I've done it 3 or 4 times, trying to capture a certain expression.  I've got alot to learn about this yet.  It's most challenging.  But...

Miles to Go

Miles to Go

This is a charcoal study for a future oil painting.  So far I like it without a car or bicycle on it.  We'll see.

North 40

North 40

Another first two layers on the next landscape work.  These are always so rather ethereal or something. There will be a crop in the forefront, going down a hill to the access road beyond.  Can't tell you much more, as the final outcome will be a surprise to me as well.

By the way, thanks to all who visited my gallery weekend.  I hope to do it again next year.

Kirkland Artist's Studio Tour

I'm 'camped out' here at the studio this weekend, both days from 10 to 6.  Haven't sold much yet but hope springs eternal.  I've always wanted to fence some artwork.
