Morning Glorious....Zinnia


It's normally 105 degrees this time of year here. This past week or so has only been in the 80's. It's just been too beautiful to be indoors, so no studio time. While enjoying the unexpected coolness, I've been getting hundreds of reference photos for future paintings.

I take hundreds of photos each month in search of the perfect subject for my next painting. This one is definitely in the running. Watch for a painting soon.

Red, White and Blueberry

I know it's not the 4th of July yet, but I couldn't wait. This 5-3/4" x 8" oil on gallery-wrap canvas is available for $150 on my website http://www.dianemorganpaints.com/

The rose image below "Look Deeper" is a photograph yet to be painted. In preparation for my paintings I shoot hundreds of photographs. I recently began submitting the photos to competitions and have started winning awards. I thought viewers might like to see the sources for my paintings so I have added a new section to my website for my photographs. You may see them at www.DianeMorganShoots.com

I am currently exhibiting in the on-line photography competition called EXPOSURE at ArtistWanted.org. Please visit the site and vote for me if you like what you see. http://www.artistwanted.org/DianeMorganFineArt
