Tulip Fields 5 x 7 Acrylic Landscape Painting









$125.00 + $10.00 S/H

I have so many friends in Washington that encouraged me to visit these tulip fields. They were so right. An incredible site and experience to say the least. It's a challenge to put so much color in the landscape, but trust me it was there. A feast for the eye!

KMD2715 Falls Riches by Kit Hevron Mahoney

I was recently commissioned to do a large painting of this scene and thought it would be fun to do as a daily painting. This scene is from a drive to Santa Fe, New Mexico several years back. It was the end of the day when the light was low and glowing across the landscape on the Colorado - New Mexico border. I have painted from the photo reference of that trip many times as I caught such a magical moment that continues to inspire me.

KM2711 Warm Glow by Kit Hevron Mahoney

I came across this painting that I had started last year in my home studio and took it into Brushstrokes and decided it was worthy enough to finish. I am pretty sure this is a scene from the Big Thompson Canyon from a photo taken pre digital cameras. I was drawn to the late winter colors when the willows and brush turn some glorious colors right before they pop out their new growth.

Lucy 6 x 6 Acrylic Pet Portrait



SOLD

I have completed quite a few pet portraits in the last few weeks. These portraits are becoming some of my favorite subjects to paint for two reasons. The first being the challenge of capturing the essence of the subject and secondly,experiencing the reaction of the client when they see the finished work. Both are exhilarating! This little lady is Lucy, a Shih Tzu.

If you would like to have a pet portrait painted just contact me at John@brushstrokesstudio.com

KMD2710 Peering Out by Kit Hevron Mahoney

While perusing my reference materials looking for ideas for our upcoming "Painting with Passion" show I found this photograph taken when traveling in Greece several years back. In the small villages throughout Europe I love looking thru the narrow passageways, always curious about what view or painting I might find. This was a wonderful surprise to find the Mediterranean on the other side.

KMA2700 Deeper Journey by Kit Hevron Mahoney

Abstracts have become an integral part of my painting experience. For years I was only wed to representational painting my interpretation of the many places I have photographed and traveled. I still love that form of painting but find new challenge and excitement painting these abstracts that come totally from intuition, a whole new journey for me. I am enamored with working in color, shape and composition with no literal representation intended, only what wants to emerge from deep within. These newer works allow the viewer to engage their imaginations and go wherever they allow the painting to take them.

KM2697 Spring's Lush Gift by Kit Hevron Mahoney

I am particularly happy with the way this painting turned out. I have not visited my poppy reference from my European travels in quite awhile so it was fun to relive some wonderful travels and approach a familiar subject with a renewed enthusiasm. The French and Italian poppies are smaller in a deeper red hue than many of ours here at home. It always amazes me to see huge fields lush in red that we came across in the springtime travels in Europe.
This will be my last posting in 2011. I am so excited about the upcoming year at Brushstrokes as we introduce our new gallery partner Kelly Berger, who brings new and exciting ideas and creative energy to our team at Brushstrokes. Stay tuned as Brushstrokes explores a new future in 2012!

KMA2705 Colors of Poetry by Kit Hevron Mahoney

I was thrilled with the way this painting evolved. I love the interplay of the colors and composition that came about while working intuitively. That is a real challenge after years of working from life and photos. This is the 3rd in a series of this subject. This painting is on display at my new gallery, Rich Timmons Studio-Gallery, in Doylestown, PA. It is a gallery wrap with no frame giving it a beautiful contemporary finish.

Enchanted Path by Kit Hevron Mahoney

As the days become shorter and the temps are dropping below zero I am escaping from the bitter cold to the memory of long, warm summer days. This is one of my favorite scenes from our Denver Botanic Gardens where I painted on location for hours in my early days of painting. Of course, I too am drawn to pathways as I love the mystery of where they can take you.
