"PInk Party Umbrella, 2" by Polly Jones



This painting is 8" by 8" on gallery wrapped canvas with a 1 and 3/8" edge, staples in back. I went back to acrylics to paint this one, for crisp edges and clean color. These umbrellas are so optimistic looking to me. They fit my frame of mind this time of the year, evoking the possibilities that spring holds. SOLD

Red Bowl With Lemons by Polly Jones, 8" by 8" oil on gallery stretched canvas no frame needed



I had fun with color and shape on this one. I meant to paint another white iris today, but it kept unfurling and changing on me. Finally, I had to give up on it and do a different painting.
SOLD

"White Iris, 2" by Polly Jones, 8" by 8" oil on gallery wrapped canvas, no frame needed



This iris was the second blossom on the stalk from my last painting. It's so convenient how they stagger ther blooming so you can enjoy them over a period of time, a short time. I've painted this on a gallery wrap canvas that has a profile of 1 and 3/8 inches. SOLD

"Orange on Pink Plaid" 8" by 8" acrylic on gallery wrapped canvas, no frame neccessary


This little painting is not for the faint of heart. I believe we all need more orange and pink in our lives. These colors do occur in nature you know. Don't forget to click on the image for a closer look. The gallery wrapped canvas has a profile of 1 and 3/8" so it has a bit of a presence. SOLD

"First Daffodil" by Polly Jones 8" by 8" gallery wrapped canvas, no frame needed

I'll never forget my 2nd grade teacher showing us how to draw a daffodil 3-dimensionally. It was the first time I really thought about drawing something from what I saw and not what I knew about it. Her chalkboard drawing was posed just like I posed my daffodil from our backyard.
