This is another new landscape piece, called “In the Wind.” Actually, I don’t think this one is quite done, but almost. The colors are good in this one, too. This one is a little larger, 20×30. Price will be $325.00, framed. jcannon1@bellsouth.net

This is another new landscape piece I just did. “The Far Trees.” It has that warm glow that the other pieces I have been doing lately has. Nice feel to it. Very soft. This one is a 12×16. Framed, it’s $225.00, plus tax. jcannon1@bellsouth.net

This is another new one I did over the weekend, “Across the Fields.” I really think this piece is nice. Has a great, soft feel to it. Everyone at the Factory really likes it. This one is a bit of an odd size, 26×29, and is framed in a nice gold frame. Price is $600.00, plus tax. Come out and see it at the Factory. jcannon1@bellsouth.net

Merry Christmas! Thought about skipping this morning, and then thought that maybe a lot of you would be up today, browsing. So I posted the Christmas present piece I did for a client. The story is that this is his wife’s childhood home, an historic house called “Happy Cliff.” It was actually on a cliff. The house has burned, and is gone. So this very thoughtful husband got all the photos of it he could find and I put together a painting of the house. This should be a very well received Christmas present. Something for all the guys to think about for next year. Anyway, Merry Christmas. I hope you all have a day full of warmth and happiness. jcannon1@bellsouth.net

This is the finished version of the piece I posted a few days ago. I have gotten all the details in and done some more with the contrasts. Now it has a good warm Italian feel and looks really good. This is a fairly large piece, 24×36. Right now it is not framed, so the price is $275.00 unframed. jcannon1@bellsouth.net

Okay, this is the second layer on the “Rainy Day” piece. I still need to add some details and then get the rain effect in. I will be working on that today and this weekend, so I should have something more (hopefully finished) by next week. I am finally coming out of that cold I came down with, so I should be able to get some things done. Come by the studio for last minute Christmas gifts, including gift certificates for art and/or lessons. The Factory at Franklin is located at 230 Franklin Road. jcannon1@bellsouth.net

This is another new landscape piece called “By the Woods.” It has a warm red glow under the foliage and clouds. Very nice effect. This is a small piece, 8×10, but looks very good in a dark frame with a deep molding. Price is $125.00, plus tax. jcannon1@bellsouth.net

This is another one I started on Monday. It’s actually from a photo of me taken in Maine several years ago. It was a cold, rainy October day. We were up the coast at a light house, and my wife snapped a photo of me hunched up in the rain. The finished piece will be kind of misty, showing the rain. I’ll post more when it’s done. jcannon1@bellsouth.net

This is a new little piece I did yesterday. I had a client come in and make the statement that she liked the soft, misty landscapes I used to do. I have been working on making things tighter lately, a lot more realistic, and kind of got away from these. So I did this small one to try a few things. The photo does not do it justice. I am going to do a few more of these, and larger (this is only a 9×12). “Out of the Fog.” Will be priced at $175.00, framed. jcannon1@bellsouth.net

Here is an update on that Italian scene that I posted last week. I’ve gotten the first layer of underpainting done, and the left side wall and the top middle are finished. This is a pretty large piece, 24×36, and I’m doing it in acrylic, with lots of layers, so it is taking a little while. I’ve come down with a cold, but plan on working on it today, so I should have more to show later. jcannon1@bellsouth.net
