First Flush

Friday, August 31st, 2007

“First Flush” 9 x 12 oil on canvas on board
When spring comes to Descanso Gardens, the first flush of roses is a sight to behold. In fact, it’s pretty darn spectacular any time of year, even now when the hot summer colors radiate from every corner. […]

Wednesday, August 29th, 2007

Today I was delighted to get a notification that this will be one of 15 paintings accepted into the upcoming juried California Art Club group exhibition “California in Focus: Scenes of Pasadena and the San Gabriel Valley. Part 2″
The exhibition will be on view at Marston’s Restaurant in Pasadena […]

­ Thank you again, EBSQ

Tuesday, August 28th, 2007

For the second time this summer, one of my paintings has been chosen as EBSQ art of the day.

EBSQ is an organization of self-representing artists who sell their work on eBay, and I’m delighted that the curator chose this as an example to represent the weekly theme of Portraits of Men.
In the […]

Vineyard Sunset

Vineyard Sunset 14 x 18 - oil on canvas
This painting will be going into a show beginning on September 15 - my first group show at Descanso Gardens.
If you’ve been reading this blog for awhile, you know how much I love Descanso - in every season. It’s one of my very favorite places […]

Daisies and Crystal by Karen Winters

Wednesday, August 22nd, 2007

Daisies and Crystal 9 x 12 - watercolor
I’m working on a rather large watercolor for a special project, but in the meantime, to have something to post, I did this quick sketch of some flowers in one of my cut glass vases. As it turned out I became more interested in the facets […]

Castle Green Balcony - Pasadena - by Karen Winters

Tuesday, August 21st, 2007

“Castle Green Balcony” - 9 x 12 oil on board
One of Pasadena’s most venerable landmarks is the Castle Green, which was built before the turn of the 20th century as an annex to the Hotel Green by Col George Green, who made his fortune in the patent medicine business. It has […]

­ Update

Sunday, August 19th, 2007

Well, the show was kind of a bust. In fact, I don’t think any of my fellow CAC members sold anything and there were plenty of folks there showing absolutely gorgeous work. There were precious few attendees in the beginning, more arrived in the middle, and at the end of the day, by far the […]

If you’re in LA, I’m going to be exhibiting these new paintings for the first time tomorrow afternoon at Flintridge’s Sacred Heart Academy. The show and benefit is in conjunction with the California Art Club.

In the Garden

Thursday, August 16th, 2007

“In the Garden” 9 x 12 - oil on canvasboard
I tried posting this using Qumana, the blogging application that lets you compose a blog posting in a dedicated application (not a browser.) Although I like the ability to add formatting easily, I don’t see a way to […]

Summer Trails

Tuesday, August 14th, 2007

Summer Trails (Dunsmore Canyon) - 9 x 12 - oil
We’re in the middle of a heat wave here - today’s temperature was 103 with 17% humidity - a really uncomfortable combination. The San Gabriel mountains (in the distance) are full of tinder dry brush, and we still have months to go […]
