Small Abstract Painting, Church Painting "The Safe Place" by Carol Schiff, 6x8" Oil
I have been dabbling with abstracts for some time, and now have started to add some structures to the mix.
I am always attracted to old churches, and this one is rather special. It is a local landmark in our town. I worked right next door for twenty plus years, so I saw it every day. Now, it also serves as a cold weather shelter for the homeless.

Abstract Landscape | Daily Painting | Small Oil Painting | Seeing Better Days by Carol Schiff | 6x8 Oil
This abstract landscape of an isolated structure in blazing sunlight is a memory of the days I lived in Louisiana and Texas. Often we would find these abandoned structures awaiting a new life.
But it could also be from the countryside of Arizona or even North Dakota, where the weather is very rugged. Can you tell I moved a lot in my life? Yes, I spent years and years following my Air Force husband from location to location. We are so happy to have spread our roots in Florida and North Carolina.
I have to be in the mood to paint with a palette knife, but when I am.....it is really fun (and in my case messy). Most of my favorite artwork (by me) has a least, some areas of knife work. I really love the texture which I feel brings a whole new dimension to the piece.
Thanks so much for viewing my abstract landscape today. I hope you will pin it!

Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, Abstract Landscape, Abstract Sunset, "Mountain Sunset" 4x6" SOLD
I am just home from a trip to the Blue Ridge Mountains, which inspired my painting for today.
My goal was to reproduce the vibrant colors of the sunset with just a suggestion of mountain ridges.
I enjoy the thick application of paint and rough, unfinished texture in this piece. It seems the more I paint, the more I move towards the abstract form.
This abstract landscape painting is a 4x6" on 1.5" gallery wrap canvas. If you enjoy it, please pin it.
