Morning Palms , Tropical Landscape


The last few mornings I have slept in and been slow about posting my work. Bad habits are hard to break so I had better get back on track today. I have worked late in the studio and I have had a lot of help.


Baby is cutting teeth, to bad it is on the artist. 

So no going to bed until the work is posted. I have someone watching me to make sure I do it.

One thing leads to another in painting


Reindeer and Christmas Owl
Reindeer and Christmas Owl, painting by Delilah Smith
About This Painting: One thing leads to another when I start painting. Last week I painted an owl. He was a cute chubby little guy.


I liked the way the whimsical little guy turned out so I thought I should do a few more: So I then painted a small aceo owl only 3.5 x 2.5, I played around with the look of the feathers.


I liked the way it's feathers had a fluffy look to them  and I think I will try to get this feel in a larger work but something about the branch got me thinking about reindeer( a little ADCD) . I forgot about the feathers for the moment  and wanting to start to think Reindeer. I wanted a few Christmas paintings and that lead me to the Reindeer and the Christmas Owl.
And because I was up all night painting I started thinking about being a Night owl and how I need friends that were night owls also which turned into this painting:


The above paintings are available at my Ebay Store.

Feel free to contact me with any questions. If your a night owl like me even better. This is why it's a good idea to keep painting and see how one idea leads to another.

Brown Cow watercolor painting


Brown Cow
Brown Cow, painting by Delilah Smith
About This Painting: I am back on the farm again today painting away. I always wonder when I was a kid how cows could walk with such big tummies?

I still have not finished my large oil painting of a cow that I started for ArtPrize. When I found out I could  not get a venue to sponsor me I gave up on it. I will get back to painting it again soon. I just lost my motivation for awhile. 

When I went to ArtPrize this year and I saw all the empty space that some venues had I just didn't understand why so many artist were turned away?

As artist we must stay focused and motivated. I haven't stop painting, I just lost the desire to work on the big cow. I think I will finish it and take it to Ann Arbor art fair next year. I have been asked backed. Normally I would not take something that large to a street show, but what the heck it would be fun to see the reactions.Maybe i will be the year of the cow..

Sheep No. 5, painting by Delilah Smith
About This Painting: There are several farms close to me that have sheep. I never knew that sheep's milk was used to make cheese. Wen I was growing up we never had sheep on our farm but my grand mother and Great Grandfather both raised sheep. The little lambs drank the milk and they used the wool but as far as I can remember they didn't drink the milk. Something to ask Mom about.
