Turmoil, Contemporary Seascape by Amy Whitehouse

16" x 20" Oil $200

Having just read Dead Wake, by Erik Larson,

I have a fresh respect for the ocean seas.

And, emotional turmoil likes to visit.

Painted with large, dynamic brushstrokes,

I hope this painting evokes the wind and surf.

Birch Trees, Contemporary Monoprint Paintings in Acrylic by Amy Whitehouse

6" x 6" Monoprint, $65

We've had more of a winter than usual here in Arizona this year.

Just a little over an hour north of Phoenix,

the birch trees are bare, the air is still,

and one can often spot a snowman

left behind to entertain passers-by.

This simple depiction of the birch trees

evokes the feel of winter in Northern Arizona

and elsewhere, I hope.

Calm After The Storm, Beach and Ocean Paintings by Amy Whitehouse

6" x 8" Acrylic, $125

Once again, it has been a long time since I've posted. My new job as Art teacher to Kindergarteners, and First, Second, Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth Graders,

has filled my weeks.

It is gratifying work if demanding.

This past week, as one little second grade boy was working,

he said,

"This is the best art project ever!"

That did my heart good.

This morning I'm trying to make sense of the clutter in my studio.

I am reposting this little painting as it's one of my favorites,

and it reminds me to do my own Art

for the good of me.

Somewhere in Oregon, Abstract Seascape Paintings by Amy Whitehouse

This abstract seascape was inspired by a photograph I saw on facebook.

It could, of course, be anywhere;

water is soothing, period.

Beach, Contemporary Seascape Paintings by Amy Whitehouse

18" x 24", Oil, $800

As you know, I could paint the ocean and the beach everyday,

and not get tired of the subject.

Especially when it's 108 degrees outside as it is now, here in the desert.

As I prepare for my new position as Art Teacher for grades K-2 and 6-8

YIKES

I haven't had as much time to paint.

But this is my latest, and I'm pretty happy with it.

I can almost feel the powdery sand all over my feet,

and almost hear the comforting sound of the surf.

If interested in purchasing this painting.

please let me know.
