The great thing about painting a Hyacinth its wonderful fragrance. This one was purchased at Berns Garden Center in Monroe Ohio. It was the last one left out of the bulbs they had forced for the winter and I almost didn't bring it home, it seemed a little stunted. A little water, some sunshine and within a day it was growing like crazy. This is one of the first stages, with the little flowers just beginning to open. I set it up in an east window in bright sunlight, and the colors were just magnificent.

Blues for Etta, Watercolor by Linda McCoy

The Grape Escape, Oil painting by Linda McCoy

This painting is aptly named “The Grape Escape” by my brother who has recently taken on the task of naming my paintings. (Thanks Larry!)

These are the largest most beautiful grapes, and oh so sweet! I like these wine glasses purchased from Pier One Imports. I set the still life up in the east sun as is often my practice. I am forever amazed at how the sunshine can turn an ordinary object into a sparkling, light refracting, illuminated miracle. The painting is my attempt to recapture that moment in the sun.

Rudy, Oil Painting by Linda McCoy

I found Rudy at an estate sale. He struck a familiar chord with me so I brought him home and put him on the "I am going to paint this someday" shelf. So here he is, I painted him as he is, a little worn with chipped paint on his little face.
He is only 4"X4"  Collected

Pearanormal, Oil Painting by Linda McCoy

This hand blown glass pumpkin was given to me by my daughter. When I set it up with the pears in the sunlight the reflections and lights were bouncing around all over the place. So much fun to paint! The pears are from our tree, these two managed to survive the bees, wasps and those little stinker squirrels.
I text my brother regularily to name my paintings. I love the name he came up with for this one.

California Dreamin' Watercolor Painting by Linda McCoy

I love painting Hydrangeas. Mostly abstract shapes of light and color. This one is in watercolor, and a very different palette of colors than I usually use.
There is a time in the midwest when the autumn leaves have fallen, but before the first snow that is so gray, cold and damp. It's this time of year that I wish I was in the bright California sunshine with some of the sweetest people I know. :)

Aidan and Lucy, Oil Painting by Linda McCoy



This is my little buddy Aidan and his very old kitty named Lucy. Wherever there is a patch of sunshine you will find her. This day Aidan was just sitting in the sun with her, she was content to be pet while he was dreaming of Power Rangers. Lucy is a rescue kitty, she was the runt of the litter, a sad little thing so home she came.  Aidan helps to take good care of her.

Wicked Cute Italian Shoes, Oil Painting by Linda McCoy

After a long shopping day in Lucca, Italy my friends and I unwrapped our treasures. I bought these for my daughter. Wondering if she would like them I asked Sharon to try them on. She stuck her feet up in the air and said "These shoes are wicked cute, I should have bought myself a pair!" I snapped a picture, (glad I did) and was able to borrow the shoes back from my daughter to paint.

Bit by Bit, Oil Painting by Linda McCoy

Veterans Day 2011

I started this painting on July 4^th of this year; these horses were on parade on our street. I took several photographs and started the painting that day while the memory was still fresh. The tack detail took a long time to accomplish, at one point I set the painting aside in frustration. Perseverance won out in the end and I finished it today.

"Glass Act" Oil Painting by Linda McCoy

This small hand blown glass pumpkin was a treasure Bree found at a Renaissance fair this September. I set it up in the sun with some of the largest, sweetest and most delicious grapes I have ever had. This painting took several weeks to create, layers and layers of transparent colors; I loved doing all of the details. It measures 8"X8" Copyright 2011 Linda McCoy

Geranium Twilight

Geranium Twilight Oil Painting by Linda McCoy

This is probably the last of the Geraniums this year, the first freeze of the fall is supposed to be tonight.  They were beautiful all summer long; perched in a planter mounted on the brick wall overlooking the deck, and I can see them from my kitchen. It was an unusually rainy summer here, and the flowers were magnificent. We picked every last Dahlia early this evening; yellow and a gorgeous pink/coral color, they will be used in a larger painting.
So long to summer.........
