Martini,Grapes and Pear | Barbara Haviland – Blog

 Today is my daughter Wendy’s Birthday. WE will see her today in Austin and celebrate with her and her husband. She is very loved.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WENDY!!!!

This still life is part of my study in still life paintings. I am learning some new techniques.  I started with a very textured dark background. I let that dry and drew my sketch.  I painted the pear and everything behind first.  IF you look close you can see all the textures.  I hope you like the painting as much as I do.

New Web Site https://BarbaraHavilandFineArt.com We have just recently moved the Woodville, Texas. So far, we are both loving the country. I create art for myself. I love doing this. I am a Christian, wife, mother, retired banker, and artist. I started painting in 1976 and was hooked. I have never been bored creating a painting. The subjects are endless. I have been frustrated, but never bored, I will try all subjects, landscape, floral, seascape, still life, and portraits. I belong to several art groups Outdoor Painters Society Oil Painters of America Artists of Texas EBSQart Tyler County Art League I also teach oil painting classes each week in my studio. When I'm not painting, I love to be with my family. My husband is my best friend and we have been married for 61 years. Yes 61 years. We travel thro this great country.
