There is meaning behind the color of a fire hydrant. 

Did you know the different colored fire hydrants indicate water-flow capacity? The blue indicate high flow. The pops of color against the blue fire hydrant were eye catching.  I spotted this yard near the town square in Granbury. The whole yard was filled with the bright colors of Spring. I knew I had to paint this colorful still life.

Fresh View

20x16 oil on canvas

 We took a country drive recently and passed by this bright red house. It has a garden of roses at the front gate. I had a vision of of bright and happy hollyhocks instead. I took out my artist license and it seemed to paint itself.  Here's to warmer days and fresh views.

12x9 oil on linen panel

I was blessed to spend the day with friends on the Paluxy River recently. The day started off cold so we bundled up. By the time we made it to the river we were peeling off the layers.  It was a great day painting with friends away from the hustle and bustle of the season.

Sage Bush Glow by Sheri Jones

16x20 oil on canvas

I painted a small study of this scene recently. It helps to work out the color and design, before going large. I just loved the glow of the sage bush as the sun was setting.  The hillside was filled with the sage bush and nice distant views.

I am always happy with a painting goes home with a new collector and old friend. Thank you! 

I created this while painting with the Outdoor Painters Society in Colorado. This was painted off Turkey Creek Road outside of Pagosa Springs. It was an isolated spot and a wonderful place to spend the day.  I loved this cluster of aspens intertwined with the beautiful fall leaves.

Nature Center Garden by Sheri Jones

12x9 oil on linen panel

I had a wonderful opportunity to paint at the Acton Nature Center this week. I was drawn to the wooden arbor and the path leading to it.  The asters, greg's mist, red salvia and many other flowers were in full bloom. They were covered in butterflies. It was a delightful morning spending time in the treasured garden.

Sweeping Mountain Views by Sheri Jones

14x7 oil on canvas

Getting lost on the back roads of Pagosa Springs we saw sweeping views of the mountains and warm fall colors. We stopped many times to photograph the beautiful landscape. It was a fun exercise to use those photos once I returned home. Using the palette knife, I built layers of shapes and colors.
