They Say It's Your Birthday

Medium: Oil on Board
Size: 5 x 5
Price: SOLD
Contact: desanostudio@cox.net
Website: www.desanostudio.com

This is one of several of my paintings which will be hanging in Starbucks County Rd. Barrington RI. March 1st through the 31st. This will be a group show and the theme is Food. I have really been enjoying painting food these past couple weeks. Unlike my usual landscape you get to eat your subject matter once you are done painting it...... Oh this is dangerous. Maybe I should think about painting a treadmill.

Fall in New England..... like no other place in the world. I have been enjoying the crisp temps since this past October and all the snow we have had this winter. I'm sad to see it go but I will hold on to it for a few more weeks in my studio with my paint and brushes.

My Winter Block Island Experience



Time well spent recently on Block Island. The seals are back and I love to spot them sunning themselves on the rocks along the shallow waters. It almost seems as though they are just as fascinated with me as I am with them. A nice break from my studio.

Girasoli II



Medium: Oil on Linen
Size: 16x20
Price: SOLD
Contact: desanostudio@cox.net
Website: www.desanostudio.com

I am currently working on a series of paintings for an invitational event at the Providence Art Club. The event is being hosted by the "National Organization of Italian American Women". Naturally I have reflected upon my own Italian heritage, experiences and time spent in Italy to prepare for this show. Sunflowers (girasoli) always bring me back to my childhood and my Italian household. Time spent outside planting the sunflower seeds in the garden with my father and watching the plants grow right before my eyes, just like something out of Jack and the Beanstalk. As fall approached, the big flower heads would start to dry and birds would cling to them while filling their bellies with the seeds to fuel them for the migration they would soon face............ More postings of my Italian paintings later this week.

Well this is the last in the series of the "children on their summer vacation". I will miss painting them and I might just revisit this series in the near future. It was a really nice break from painting landscapes. I am now building up my inventory for my studio for our Holiday Open Studio Sale as well as the little picture show at the Providence Art Club. I just love to paint.

I am having so much fun painting these children. They are siblings and I happened upon them while taking photos at the beach. They were just soooo cute that I had to paint them. Still to come is the oldest brother of the two children already posted so check back in a few days.

His Blue Tube - side view


Side view of "His Blue Tube". Painting on these deep canvases are so much fun. I love to view them from the side like in this photo. The painting literally wraps around the canvas if kept unframed. But, if you prefer to frame it a floater frame is a perfect choise because it still allows for the sides to be seen.
