"Summer Wedding" by Kathryn Morris Trotter
"Summer Wedding"
24x30" oil on canvas
24x30" oil on canvas
Shhhhhhh.....This painting is a SURPRISE commission piece. That is all that I can say, as I don't know who reads my blogs! :0!! The only suggestion for painting this was a plethora of colorful dresses (twist my arm, right??). It is interesting that the last 5 commission pieces have been surprises. What a unique gift idea that will be a keepsake for the rest of this person's life?
It is a joy painting for these wives, husbands, and children who have put so much thought and excitement into photos, ideas, and specifics about the painting they want commissioned. What is even better is the response I receive after the gift has been unveiled.
Thank you to all who have allowed me the opportunity to play such a unique role in your expression of love to your family and friends. Some of you have not even seen my work in person, nor do I know you on a personal level and some of you, I know quite well...either case, it has been a true joy.

Aspens in the fall are a site to behold. This painting was inspired by a trip to Colorado with my wonderful sister. Aspen trees are amongst the oldest living organisms on the planet and they can grow a new tree from their root ball. I love the symbolism they carry and the beauty they hold for those walk amongst them.
This painting, "Autumn Green", is an original acrylic on canvas and measures 11"x14". It has texture in the trees and foliage and has a lovely warm glow when the lights are dimmed.
This one is available by contacting me through my website. Thank you for viewing.

Catching the Light by Deanna Jaugstetter
My Georgia flower garden is full of different species of hydrangea. This pale green almost white hydrangea is a favorite! These make lovely dried blooms throughout the house later in the summer. Gardening is such a fullfilling way to spend time in addition to providing a source of beauty in my art studio!

"Dancing in the Rain 2" by Kathryn Morris Trotter
"Dancing in the Rain 2"
by Kathryn Morris Trotter
giclee reproductions available at Fine Art Marketplace:
This blog goes out to all of you who have contacted me regarding this piece. I send my thanks around the states and overseas for purchasing the limited edition giclees of "Dancing in the Rain." Please know that you have a little piece of me, since you own my art. My biggest thanks goes out to the owner of the original who allowed me to have this piece transported all the way back to Atlanta so that I could capture the image for reproduction.
"Dancing in the Rain 2" has been one of my most sought after paintings since the beginning of my art career. Who would have guessed??! Being the originator of this painting, I obviously would not have created it if I did not LOVE IT! So, I am not saying that it is not noteworthy of this praise, but I will say that one never knows just which painting is going have such a broad, profound effect.
This piece was painted with as much excitement as it exudes today. Isn't it ineffable how a painting can encapsulate the energy that the artist possesses in the moment a painting is created and that it retains that energy for a lifetime? As we look at the masters or any piece of art that speaks to us, we realize that it is the energy that invites us into a moment in time...
ALSO....Check out "DANCING IN THE RAIN 2" in the this season's premier of "DROP DEAD DIVA!"
Our limited edition giclees are being sold at Fine Art Marketplace (see link above).

"The Invitation" by Kathryn Morris Trotter
"The Invitation"
40x60" oil on canvas
By Kathryn Morris Trotter
www.kathryntrotterart.com
The title of this piece, "The Invitation," piques one's curiosity. Where are these ladies going and what prestigious event soiree were they invited to? Where are they? Are they in New York or Paris? It must be an important event to be so fabulously dressed in the rain...and yes, these fashionistas came prepared.
I just love this painting, and I will miss it when it is no longer hanging in my studio. Where do I envision these ladies?? I see this piece in a high-end fashion boutique, a New York loft, or potentially a fashion house....although, I wouldn't be surprised if a man ends up purchasing this painting for his wife or secretly for himself. One would be surprised at how many emails I receive from men who are captivated by these ladies. They have no shame...I am talking true businessmen who probably eat, live, and breathe football. I must say..I love it!

This abandoned boat on the beach, "Rhapsodic Blues", was inspired by a vacation I took on a tiny island in the Florida Keys, where I came across this enticing scene. This 14"x11" acrylic palette knife painting is rendered in the impressionistic style of Vincent Van Gogh, one of my favorite artists.
This piece is available to purchase in my Fine Art Gallery in C.F.A.I. As always, I'll include a Certificate of Authenticity. CLICK HERE

"River of Memory"
Oil on linen 24x30, 2012
by Shijun Munns
the river flows ever forward,
it carries us downstream to an unknown future.
memory is like a river in time
that always flows backward,
to the past,
reminding us of the times that once were
and will never be again.

"Little Italian Boat" by Diane K. Hewitt
"Little Italian Boat"
7x9" Oil on Canvas Board
This little blue boat was painted from a photo taken in Capri,
Italy. In my opinion, Capri is one of
the most beautiful places on Earth. That
may just be because it is surrounded by the fabulous blues of the Mediterranean Ocean. There is also every color of the rainbow everywhere
you look, and boats galore! This
particular little guy was off by itself, begging to be painted, so I
obliged.

"Flower Trio " by Cheryl Sameit
"Flower Trio"
5 x 7 acrylics on canvas
by Cheryl Sameit
I love this piece...and what I learned from the process!
I wanted to loosen up my painting, but struggled with how to do so. I found artists with styles that inspired me and studied their brushwork and composition. I realize now I was analyzing too much and delaying the action...
So this piece is the "action". Enjoy!
