Today's work includes two new landscape and a floral composition. Abstract Pear Tree is a variation on some of my previous abstract tree compositions, as is the Apple Tree piece. Tulips is a variation on my popular Tulips in Midday Sun composition, which was recently bought by a couple in Atlanta as a commission.

These are two paintings I've done in the past two days. My sales have really picked up this week, which makes me a happy camper. I'm going to be getting started on the large Alaska landscape commission that my Atlanta-area publisher has ordered for one of their clients.

The Pear Tree series is one of my favorite ones to paint. I recently sold a variation of this composition to a woman in Brooklyn who bought it as a wedding present. The Prairie Sky series is one I've done several different compositions for. I love painting the huge sky and clouds, and my patrons really love it.
