Oil Painting of Pretty Dog Named Prissy

PRISSY
oil on canvas panel
copyright V. Bridges Hoyt 2009

I came across this painting as I was cleaning out some image files. This was painted in 2009 when I was into completion of a painting a day. At the time I was turning out paintings at a fast pace and I barely had time to look at and critique a painting before it was listed and sold. When I stumbled across the painting of Prissy, I smiled. The painting was much prettier than I remembered it. Sometimes we need to slow down and observe what we are doing, not hurry the paintings out the door. I would have enjoyed having Prissy hanging on my own gallery wall for a few months, but the painting of Prissy went to a good home in Kansas, and for that I am glad.

Sunflower Art by Vernita Hoyt

Sunflower, the art of Sunshine

Into each life some rain must fall, it is said. I say that we each need to find our sunshine, and I find mine in painting sunflowers through the cold, damp winter months of southeast Texas.

About this painting …

This watercolor sunflower is a work in progress that has been waiting too long for the finish. I have one more pet portrait commission to paint. After that I will be painting sunflowers … and portraits of children.
