Sketch of a Big Eye Gothic Angel Fairy, April 15 Art Sketches Daily + Marigold Flowers Original Painting Website Update...

New Art on my website in the floral art section here

"Encantadoras" Original 8"x8" Painting, Open Edition 8"x10" Giclee Prints & Limited Edition Giclee ACEO Prints Here

"Encantadoras" is my newest addition to my website.  The original acrylic painting is on a square gallery wrapped canvas.  Two marigold flowers burn brightly against a lush green.  Marigolds are lovely on their own, but they are also a flower loved in Dia de los Muertos / Day of the Dead festivities.  The art has a soft realist impressionist feel.

I did not paint these this week, but the painting I did finish is my featured original currently listed with my Tuesday auctions!


Every week on Tuesday, I try to list a small original, some giclee art prints, and giclee LE ACEO prints at promotional prices. Visit here to see what I have available this week!

I'm joining in this week with Paint Party Friday.  To see more participants, please visit:

Here is a sketch of a big eyed gothic maiden.  She seems to have a sad and yet very caring gaze...  I think she is most likely an angel fairy, although she could also be a mermaid or a goddess.  I'm unsure if I'll paint her or not, but I did enjoy sketching her.

I've decided to try and do a sketch a day in April.  This is day 15.   

This is a rough sketch.  You may see some of my finished paintings at lisarusso.com if you'd like.

Marigolds Flowers Original Floral Art Painting! Art Prints & ACEO Prints!

This Week "Encantadoras" Original 8"x8" Painting here

8"x10" Open Edition print here

ACEO 2.5"x3.5" Limited Edition LE 1st of 25 here

I am listing "Encantadoras," an original floral painting.  This painting of golden orange marigolds will probably be the last painting I complete this year.  Marigolds are a flower loved in Day of the Dead / Dia de los Muertos festivities.  I think they are enchanting and lovely.  The art has a soft realist impressionist feel...

I also have additional giclee art and ACEO prints here this week from Tuesday to Tuesday with a theme of flowers, they are some of my favorites...  


Most of my art is also available on my website at http://www.lisarusso.com; however, I like to put some art on ebay at a lower promotional start rate for the duration of the auctions...  I have been updating my website.  It's an ongoing project, but there is now an excellent selection of art available!

My Photograph of an Orange Flower and Fall Leaves at Descanso Gardens...

I took this photograph during my most recent visit to Descanso Gardens.  This sweet orange flower is blooming amidst a green plant and some fall leaves.  Not all of our trees shed for fall here in Southern California, but the ones that do are so lovely.  I hope that you will enjoy this photo!

My Photograph of Orange California Poppies at Descanso Gardens...

I took this photograph of orange California poppies at Descanso Gardens.  I believe the California poppy is our state flower her in CA, they're so beautiful...  I hope that you will enjoy this photo!
