Maine Lighthouse Painting by Jill Saur

Just finished my 24"x12" acrylic palette knife painting of a Maine Lighthouse. I softened the buildings with a touch of fog, brought a light path up two areas of the rocks, creating a path for the eye to travel through the painting, and sprinkled a little pixie dust in the water. 

Painting is like a dance. With quick strokes of the brush, the beginning is often like the tango. The middle is like a fine waltz, keeping in step with the music. The end of a painting is like a slow dance, paying close attention to the partners every nuance, move and look. It's always best when I let the painting lead!

Cayman Island Painting

Boat Painting

I just put the finishing touches on this 16"x20" acrylic palette knife painting that I titled, "Cayman Blues".  This little boat was beached on Little Cayman Island and I thought it made for a nice shot and someday a nice painting.

The Cayman Islands contain some of the worlds most beautiful waters to dive and snorkel in.  The beaches are pristine.  I count it a privilege to have been there several times in my life.

Red Tulip Painting

Do you love the many hues of red?  I do and I paint with them often.  The color red stirs excitement, passion, and imagination.  My 36"x36" acrylic painting on canvas, "Rhapsody In Red", was a labor of love.  Reds can be very difficult to work with when blending their many hues.  Those who know me know that I never give up.  This painting was no exception!

It was a privilege to be given a press pass to photograph on the sidelines during the University of Georgia football games.  Through my photography, I was able to get subject matter to paint.  Here is a 50th anniversary painting that I did of UGA VI.  It's titled, "UGA VI, Guardian of the Legacy".  Limited editions are available for this painting.  I still have the original painting that I've been holding on to it for that "special fan".
