ORIGINAL OIL PAINTINGS

Oil painting dates back to at least the Roman Empire. Traditional oil painting begins with an artist's sketch on stretched canvas, then a building up of layers, like painting from the inside out to completion. Oil painters are influenced from many sources with the old masters and impressionistic era yielding the heaviest influence. Brenda's style is of details. From portraits to landscapes the closer you get to the painting the more secrets you will find. Enjoy this Original Oil Painting Gallery.

"Boys In The Sand" This piece is based on a friend's grandchildren. Couldn't resist the drama to add the pending storm.	"Carolina Dunes" I adore this painting. So much I also created a watercolor of it.	"First Snow" Mountain snowfall, "First Snow" is Brenda's passion for trees, nature, snowfall and the vibrant colors of the outdoors.
"Storm Over Dunes" You can feel the wind in your hair, and dig your toes into the sand as the chill sets in and the sky darkens.	"Dodie's Girls on the Beach" commissioned	"Blue Snow" "Blue Snow" is that look fresh snow takes on near open water.
"Big Sur Cliffs" There is a power in moving water. It also has a peace which can lull you to sleep. It is ever changing, which means for an artist - wait and you will see something new.	"Eaton Canyon Flowers" This carries the unique environment of the San Gabriel Mountains and Eaton Canyon. It is beautiful and very much California.	"Pismo Beach" More California beaches with the ocean's intensity looming.
"Hawaiian Beach" This was a quick piece totally fascinating to me. The foreground tree is so unique. The colors of the beach and ocean are intense.	"Yellow Dunes" I revisited the Carolina sand dunes several times. It changes - and kept luring me back. This sunset piece allowed me to revisit the sand - which is so real - the reeds I love.	"Autumn Bridge" East coast covered bridge with an autumn backdrop.
	Ancestral Portrait This was painted from a black and white ancestral photo.	"Shakespearean Cottage" Beginning to paint while living in England Brenda's cottages are her most loved pieces, full of happy memories and a deep love for England.
