Blue Bonnet Trail by Ann McCann 9 X 12 Oil

April 12, 2016 in Landscape Paintings

I am just back from a painting trip in the Texas hill country.  I can't tell you how gorgeous it was, not only the bluebonnets, but orange paintbrush, red poppies, etc.  The Willow City Loop was amazing.  I have so many photos and so little time to paint those scenes.  I have some plein air paint sketches to complete and will post them when finished.

I painted this last year and it is for sale here.

Iris Ladder by Ann McCann 12 X 12 Oil

April 06, 2016

Iris are blooming everywhere right now.  So, while they last, I am painting them as fast as I can. Here is my latest effort. This is a gallery wrap canvas that is painted on the sides.

Pear Cotton Candy by Ann McCann 18 X 24 Oil

April 04, 2016

Bradford Pear trees are the earliest sign of Spring in Dallas.  These are my favorite, and I try to paint them every year. I like how I achieved the opaque blossoms against the transparent shadows.  This is my favorite so far!

On the Snow Trail by Ann McCann 20 X 20 Oil

March 30, 2016

It occasionally snows in Dallas.  Even with a big snowfall, it soon melts.  However, it is beautiful while it lasts.  I love the deep blues and purples in this painting, contrasting with the bright whites and blues of the snow.  This is a path that I would follow into the woods.  How about you?

Pink Rose on Chartreuse (Left Facing) by Ann McCann 20 X 20 Oil

February 29, 2016

I painted this to go with my right-facing Crimson Rose on Blue.  The duo would really brighten up a room.  The sides of the gallery wrap canvases are painted and do not need to be framed. They have a very contemporary look.
