Still Life Flower Painting "Roses Are Red, and Violet, Too! " by Georgia Artist Deanna Jaugstetter

There are times that an artist must accept the fact that a painting is not ready for prime time viewing! "Roses Are Red and Violet,Too" is a Still life painting that I began almost a year ago but was never completely satisfied with. The painting has remained in the busiest area of my studio until one day last week I was prompted to submit this painting for a local exhibit. After much thought, I began to rework the painting! "Roses Are Red and Violet, Too", an acrylic floral painting, was juried into the exhibit so I spent my time well!

Oil Landscape, Barn Painting"Going Home" by Georgia Artist Deanna Jaugstetter

Having been born in the North Carolina mountains , I get a familiar feeling when I see a barn in the distance. Barns aren't often seen in the city landscape these days, however if you are in the countryside of any state you see the finest displays of this type of structure. As kids growing up in the mountains, the perfect vehicle to travel this type of road surface is a truck.Some of the most fun I ever had were the summer hayrides in the back of a pickup truck! " Going Home", a landscape in oil, is reminiscent of my country childhood experiences!

Once in a while I will awake in the middle of the night with an idea for a painting! As I lay there, I plan the feeling I hope to convey to the viewer!

It was a pleasure working on this piece as I had just completed a few weeks of small paintings in which there was quite a bit of detail. I worked all night into the next day on the first layer of the painting, completing it the next week. "Two Thirty AM" can be rotated in either direction giving the viewer additional moods of the same work! I plan more of these works so I may be losing some sleep!

Siena,Italy is surrounded by wine yards and olive groves, is spread out over three hills in the center of Tuscany.Its picturesque houses and small streets wind up to the charming Piazza del Campo. Restaurant, Osteria Le Logge, formerly an old phamacia is the setting for this watercolor painting. Dining tables are set up outside the entry walls of the stone structure and sophisticated waiters and waitresses relay the fare. The vision of a delectable dessert is embedding in my memory; a puff pastry with whipped cream and custard! Somehow, food never tastes as good indoors as it does in the open air, don't you agree!!

Original Watercolor Architectural Cityscape Painting "Dining In Calcatta" by Georgia Artist Deanna Jaugstetter

Calcatta, Italy, is little known to most tourists as an ancient town built on volcanic cliffs in the 1500's. Calcatta was once condemned by the Italian government in the 1930's but is now considered as one of the grooviest towns in the area surrounding Rome. After being told that Calcatta existed, my husband and 4 friends hired a driver out of Rome, Italy to drive us to this jewel of a place high above the trees! To the delight of our ears, as we entered the town through a stairway of masonry of stone, we heard "Ave Maria", being sung by an Italian gentleman in the tiny church there! Dining in Calcatta ,a watercolor, is a glimpse of such a fascinating place!

House Sketch, Architectural Sketch,Atlanta Architecture "Tybee Island Cottage" by Georgia Artist Deanna Jaugstetter

Cottages are one of my favorite subjects to draw.! I learned how to create in a smaller home in the mountains of North Carolina. Cottages have charm and are cozy to live in! "Tybee Island Cottage" is a seaside painting of a cottage located on Tybee Island/ Fort Screven area of the Savannah, Georgia coast. My husband grew up in this coastal area of Georgia, hence I have spent quite a bit of time there also. A commonality among seaside cottages is their insistence on having a porch! Isn't it great that there are still areas of the country where conversation is enjoyed while porch sitting! With a modest investment of a mat and frame, "Tybee Island Cottage" would ad a charming touch to your home!
