Introducing the Next Big Thing!

I'm so pleased to finally present the first of my new painting products. These "jewels" are cubes, prisms and cylinders cut from high quality wood, primed then painted. Each one of these pieces will have a theme and measure between 6" and 7" tall. This inaugural prism has the title:
"Cherries Jubilee"
If you are interested in purchasing this jewel please email me at julie@julieboyles.com for details.

Sneak Peek

This is just one side of a new line of paintings I've been working on. These pieces will be in the shape of prisms, cubes and cylinders with paintings on each side. This particular piece is part of a prism and will be titled "Cherries Jubilee". Stay tuned for the next sides and the final view!

Little Pitcher

This little painting is 6" X 6" Acrylic on panel. It is another study using ultramarine, burnt sienna and white. I've never used acrylics and really enjoyed them! I'm sure I'll be doing more soon!

New Studio Painting

This is my latest studio painting. It is 22" X 22" done in a diamond shape. Oil on prepared panel. For this painting I used a limited palette of white, burnt sienna and ultramarine blue. I was amazed at all the colors and shades I could get with only these three colors.

This painting will be one of several on display at my booth at the Indiana Art Fair. The exhibition is at the Indiana State Museum and will be held on February 23 and 24.

Happy Holidays

"Unwrapping Christmas"
This is my annual Christmas painting. The original is 8" X 10" oil on panel. I usually paint something with more color but as soon as I found this ornament, I knew I had to paint it. The stark silver and white against the lights of our Christmas tree really appealed to me. I hope your holiday was a merry one and wish you a very Happy New Year!

I enjoyed painting the pears I did a couple weeks ago and thought I'd do a couple more. I've often thought that "everyone paints pears" but now I see their appeal! The shape is very challenging and this color is really interesting too! I think I'll be revisiting this subject again. I really like to paint reflections too. It's always a challenge to make sure one looks like the reflection and the other looks like the real thing!

Blue Dolphins

I am very fond of marbles, all different styles of them! I like how their shape and how they reflect and refract light. These are Blue Dolphin Marbles and when the light hits them just right, they show a depth that is fantastic!

One More Studio Painting

Title: "Fun and Games" Oil on Panel 8 1/2" Round Here is one more of the latest studio pieces. This originally had just one marble in the composition but after getting it blocked in I decided it needed another one. Thank goodness I finished this one before the pears went bad! There was a clock in this frame but I think the painting goes even better in it!

This painting can be seen at the CCA Gallery in Zionsville through January 2007

New Studio PaintingsIII

Title: "Tea With Lemon" Oil on Panel Size 5 1/2" Round

Here is another completed studio painting. It can be seen at the CCA Gallery until January 2007. I think this my favorite out of the bunch so far! As you can see, I have been working with new and exciting ways to frame these pieces. A few months ago I was looking for a way to bridge the gap between 2 dimensional art and 3 dimensional art. This is one of my solutions. Each painting is composed and designed to go into a particular vessell. I have a lot more of these kinds of paintings/frames coming in the next few months. So check back often!

I'd love to know what you think of these! Leave a comment or email me!

Green Apples with Pitcher

Click Here to purchase this painting. $100

This painting measures 5" X 7" and doesn't have a very clever title, I just couldn't think of one! You will soon see that green apples are one of my FAVORITE things to paint. Tomatoes are too but that's a whole other story!
I like the repetitive shape of the apple with the curves of the pitcher in this painting.

Orange Merry Belle

Sold

This painting is titled "Orange Merry Belle" and as you can tell I really liked the format of these peppers hanging from the ribbons! This one was especially fun because of the brightness of the orange pepper and the complimentary blue of the ribbon. They both reminded me of hanging bells and they are "bell peppers". That's how the names came about!
This painting and the "Yellow Merry Belle are both 7"H X 5"W

Yellow Merry Belle

Sold

Introducing the first of many "Small Somethings"! These will be oil paintings ranging in size from
5" X 7" or 6" X 6" that can be viewed and purchased from this blog. If you like these paintings let me know by checking out my website, www.julieboyles.com. If you would like to purhase any of these paintings please email me and I'll be glad to get it right out to you!

This painting is titled, "Yellow Merry Belle" and measures 5" X 7". It is a finished painting on a hardboard panel.

As you'll come to see, I enjoy putting elements together that have different shapes, textures and colors. It is always a challenge to show the difference in these elements and yet have them be unfied in the painting.
