Daily Painting - 'Walnut Strata' - 48x20 inches
This abstract painting is an earthtone textured oil painting on 3 gallery wrap canvases. The pattern is similar to what would be seen in layers of rock sediment or strata. I wanted these layers to appear as if they were almost wood-like, as in petrified wood.
At any rate, I hope that you find the painting interesting!

'New Worlds' - 72x36 inches - Daily Painting by AJ LaGasse
click here to bid
Today's daily painting is an abstract painting in green/blues, and umber with sienna browns. I wanted to create a distant focal point in the center with billowing color leading the eye from the edges back in towards this point.

'TIME INDEFINITE' - Abstract Daily Painting by AJ LaGasse
click here to bid
This is a new daily (abstract) painting on 3 canvases. The element of time is something that can seem so elusive. How appropriate for this painting, since, when I finished it, I noticed that several hours had passed, and it seemed like I was painting for only a few minutes! Well, you know what they say, 'time flies when you're having fun'. ;)

'Chocolate Mint Explosion' - Textured Oil on Canvas - Melelina LaGasse
click here to bid
This is a 3 piece textured oil painting that Melelina finished today. Deep browns (raw umber), meet a mint/teal, creating an 'explosion' of color that is making me think of some nice chocolate candy! Better yet, how about some Ben & Jerry's Mint Chocolate Cookie ice cream?
You convinced me, after this post we're heading out to get some! ;)

'Vintage Merlot' - 24x30 inches - Oil on canvas (textured)
This is my latest abstract painting in textured oil paint, a merlot with 'with a dark garnet color slowly turning to orange, with aromas of red cherries and red currants'.
Sorry, couldn't help myself, that's a description of the wine itself, but it applies to the painting as well (except the aroma part- the smell is of delicious linseed oil!).

'Strawberries #1' - 6x6 inches - Oil on gessoboard - AJ LaGasse
click here to bid
This is a still life of strawberries that I painted after my friend Bill brought over a bunch that he and his family had picked in Plant City, FL. They were outstanding! You couldn't get them any fresher than that!
Hopefully, I've captured the essence of juicy plumpness in this painting, which you might say is a slight departure from my abstract style!

'DUNE' - 24X30 inches - oil on canvas by AJ LaGasse
click here for more information
This is a new abstract oil painting with brown and blue hues. I decided to create smaller paintings again, for those that do not have the wall space, and/or just need an accent painting on a wall, instead of a large diptych or tryptich.

'MONET'S GARDEN' 18X24 inches - Oil on canvas by AJ LaGasse
This is an original oil painting that I finished today as a study for a larger commissioned painting. The scene is of Monet's garden in Giverny, France with the japanese style bridge covered in white flowers. Water lily pads are seen in the water in the left foreground.
The painting continues on the edges, so you do not necessarily have to frame it!
I expect to offer this painting at auction within a week or two, unless someone wishes to forego the auction, and submit an offer via email. You may do so by using the email address at the bottom of my page at the Daily Art Painters website:

This is a commissioned painting, by a collector who loved the original design, and wanted to have something similar, but of course with an added 'flair' to make it unique!

'Cinnamon Bay II' - 30x30 inches - Oil on canvas
This textured oil painting has earthy hues along with gold/ochre highlights. I didn't want to create a deep texture, so I used just enough paint to raise the surface a bit.
