SOLD

My recent show with Ben Owen III was a great success. Our title for the exhibit was "Dynamic

Color in clay and paint". The bright clear color in the paintings was studiously coordinated with Ben's amazing glazes and we had many visitors during the month along with a good number of sales. 

Thanks to all of you art lovers who came out for our opening and visited the gallery all during the month. 

The Artist And The Athletes

We Are Tar Heels!

These nice young men wanted a photo with a famous North Carolina artist and the artist was happy to be in the company of Kennedy Meeks, Joel Berry, Justin Jackson, and Marcus Paige. These are four UNC basketball players who excel in school and epitomize good sportsmanship on the court. I am proud to stand with them.

I have been painting very large paintings and commissions for Christmas gifts which I won't post because  that might spoil some surprises. I will offer my 2016 calendars later this week on this blog. Let me know if you would like to order some. 

Please know that I miss you all and your comments. I'll be back to daily blogging as soon as I can.

Flowers On The Table

On The Edge

Available

Here's another still life using the same objects and colors. These two glass items made nice reflections of their colors when I set them up in some bright daylight on the kitchen table.

Lemon With Glass

Available

I painted four paintings using these items a while back and I'm planning on doing some new paintings using glass. I think that the suggestions Carol Marine makes about how to paint glass will be very helpful. It's a nice challenge to continue improving skills in various painting subjects. I still have a couple more of this series to post.

Thanks for looking at my paintings on this blog.

It's not too early to work on some holiday paintings and my gallery in Southport always has an area of handmade gift items which has become very popular. I will be bringing some small paintings and my 2016 art calendars. The Holiday Boutique will open November 2nd.

Turnip Time

Time For Turnip Salad, 6 x 6 " oil on panel, ©2015, Fay Terry

$100 plus shipping

The color in these turnips is really bright and beautiful. This is a vegetable that I really disliked as a child but I was required to eat a small amount when they were served with dinner. Eventually I started to enjoy eating them, especially the way my dad cooked them. 

I love eating turnip greens and they are even better with diced turnips, hot peppers, pickled onions, and crumbled corn bread.

Colored Glass

Love the reflections of the glass colors on to the tabletop- it's so much fun to paint these colored glass pieces.

Pansies

This is a 16x20" oil on canvas. I love painting these baskets and the flowers are fun, too.
