A Place in the Shade - Figures on Friday

A Place in the Sun, 6 x 8, oil on panel, L. Daniel © 2023

SOLD

It's summertime, and I have to say, this guy has it figured out. There is nothing quite like a patch of shade at the beach on a sunny day. As for inspiration? I loved the sky, I loved the dune, I loved the guy, I loved it all! :) 

HAPPIEST SUMMER!

Summer Creek Study

SOLD

I painted this little study as a color warm up for a commission piece I just finished. It helped to get the paint flowing on a small panel before diving into the large canvas… a bit of an appetizer so to speak! :) I will post the commission piece once it is framed and safely in the hands of it's owner (I don't want to jinx anything.)

That Summer Feeling

Beach Day, L. Daniel, 12 x 12

This piece and other new works of mine are currently on display in the annual summer show at the Davis Gallery here in Austin. "That Summer Feeling" features the gallery's family of artists, and it is my great delight to be part of it all. Below is the exhibit invitation - wish you could all stop by... and if you are in town, please do! (On display through August 28.)
