Red & PInk Roses #1

Here is the mate to the other. It has just been licensed for the open edition prints and they are on the market now--somewhere. No hatboxes for this one, but I like it better than the other. It also is a 16x20 oil on canvas.

Red & Pink Roses

This is a 16x20 oil that I did a few years ago when I was painting for a company that made prints from my paintings. It has a mate that I will blog tomorrow or whenever. It has been licensed on open edition prints and also hat boxes. Cato's sold the hat boxes a couple of years ago and the prints are somewhere out there in the marketplace.

Leo

This is a portrait of a dear friend who passed away last spring. He was always at his Amoco station and in a dead run to make sure everyone got taken care of. We miss him. This is a 14x18 oil and I painted it for his son to give to Leo's widow.

Bandstand from the Hill 24x36

I did this one larger than the previous one. This is a 24x36 oil and was painted from the photos that I took this spring in our lovely park. Some day I will have to paint it with the people playing in the band. We still have band concerts three times a week in the summer. I think I like the small one better. It was fun to paint though. Right now, it is NFS.

White Iris in watercolor

I did this in a watercolor workshop this past weekend. It is a little larger than my scanner so I had to trim the left side a bit. Some time ago I did a small 5x5 oil of this same Iris. It is a 9x12 watercolor, matted with off white and has a gold liner. It is $75.00 including S&H.

Bandstand from the Hill

I have painted this scene from almost every angle. This is a 16x20 oil of our local park with the bandstand and the springs. People used to come to the springs for healing waters. I am working on a 24x36 like this one. Then I had better look for another subject. Or maybe another season. How would that be? Our Picnic celebration is in July and I am just probably excited to see old friends so am feeling nostalgic. Maybe that is why I am doing so many of these scenes. It is fun though. Maybe I will wait for fall before doing some more.

Bandstand in ElDo 2008

I have really been in the "bandstand mood". I am trying to perfect the scene so I can hang the painting in the local bank. Of course I have to eliminate a few trees, monuments etc. so it is not exact. Our summer concerts are so wonderful for a town this size and I am hoping everyone enjoys this scene. This is the time of year that organizations ask me for a donated painting for their raffle to make money. I don't know how many of these paintings I have done. Many!! It is a 24x36 oil and is not for sale. I am doing two more which I will post when finished.

Bandstand in Spring '08

This is a 24x36 oil that I just completed. It is a view of our park that I have painted many times for local club groups for their fund raisers. This is the first time I have painted this large in some time and it was fun. It is NFS right now anyway.

Yellow Pears & Grapes

This is an 8x20 oil and is one that has been printed in an open edition on the market. This is on textured masonite. I did several of these with this technique and several of them have been licensed and printed. It is $500.00 in cluding S&H.

Santa Fe Garden #II

This is an 11x14 oil, painted on stretched canvas. I painted it from a photograph that I took when I visited Santa Fe four years ago. I think maybe this was on Canyon Road, although I am not sure. I took so many photos and I always think I can remember just where it was taken, but I guess I don't. This painting not framed at the present and is $400.00 including S&H

Lakescene, Moon Comin' Up

I paint this scene so much as it is what I see from my little "get-away" cabin on the lake. It is a 6x18 acrylic, matted out to a 12x24. It is painted on gessoed watercolor board. It is $200.00 including S&H.

The Orange Tree

This is a small 8x10 oil on a wrap-a-round canvas and I just sold it at the Dogwood Festival in Camdenton, Mo.
Sold

Purple and White Iris

This is a watercolor and gouache and some liquid acrylic on rice paper so I call it a mixed media. It is matted out to about an 18x24 or so. It has a natural colored matt with gold liner and is ready to frame. It would need to be under glass. These paintings on rice paper are really fun as you don't quite know where the paint is going and since I am a really controlling painter, it is sort of hard for me to keep it in control. I love doing them. It is $200.00 uncluding S&H.

Dana's Iris

This is a large watercolor and belongs to my daughter. I have been working in oils mostly this year so this was done some time ago. Realism in the flower and lots of abstract stuff going on in the background. Just thought it "fit" this time of year. Owner: Dana Whitesell

Forsythia in Basket

This is a 20x24 watercolor. It matted out to about a 24x30. There are open edition prints of it on the market. Just google my name, Peggy Thatch Sibley and you will find lots of prints. Original just sold to Tom & Anell Haase.

Stilllife with Pears and Grapes

Again, this is a still life that I did a few years ago. It is a 16x20 oil, painted on gessoed textured masonite. It is one of a series I did with this textured technique. It is now owned by Stanton & Casseille Gammon

Yellow Lab

This is my son's yellow lab. I painted this some time ago and just thought I would share it with you. It is acrylic, matted and framed out to about a 20x24. It is now hanging in my grandson's college apartment. I just wanted you to see the variety of work that I do. Owner: Alex Sibley

Colorado near Pueblo

This is one of the first pretty scenes that I photographed as we got into the pretty part of Colorado on our trip last summer. So many pretty sights to see in Colorado. This is a small 6x8 oil on a Raymar panel with the edges painted so would sit on a little easel without a frame or I now have a silvery gold 3" frame that it really looks good in. It would be $150.00 without frame and $200.000 with frame, including S&H.

Lab with Duck

I just moved in to photograph this so the drippy, abstract stuff is not on the bottom. Close up of the dog though. I photographed this while it was under glass so there may be a few reflections in it if you look close.

Lab with Duck

I did this painting a long time ago. Someone wanted a print of it so I have been just making one on my own computer. It is a large gouache and watercolor mixed media. It is not for sale. Just thought I would share it with you.

Single Magnolia Blossom

This is one I have had for quite awhile. This was painted when I was working in watercolor a lot. I bouce back and forth between oil, watercolor, and acrylic. I just had to photograph it for something else so decided to put it on my blog. Maybe I will get back into watercolor soon. It matts out to a 20x24, has a white matt with blue liner and is $300.00, including S&H.

Colorado Stream III Estes Park

This is another painting of a stream in Estes Park Colorado. I photographed this when out there last summer. The painting is just a little longer than this shows but I seem to get better color when I can scan something rather than photograph so this picture cuts off about an inch from the bottom. I is an 8x12 oil, painted on gessoed Masonite. The edges are painted and it looks good just sitting on an easel, but of course, could be framed. It is $300.00 including S&H.

Colorado Stream #II

Another little mountain stream. This also is on a 6x8 wrap-a-around canvas. It could also be framed or this is such a nice size to sit on a small easel. It is $150.00 including S&H. Or the pair for $200.00.

Colorado Stream # 1

This is a small 6x8 oil on a wrap-a-around canvas. It could be framed as the canvas is 3/4 inches deep. When in Colorado last summer I photographed so many subjects, some of which were little streams coming out of the mountains. This one was in Estes Park, Co. The rocks, the pine trees, wild flowers and stream all made for a quiet peaceful afternoon. My friends painted on the scene. So much fun! This one is $150.00 including S&H.
