A heavily textured impasto painting of some buildings on the Lunenburg waterfront in winter, painted with a sliver of bright green, then blue, yellow and very bright red.
If you're looking for something bright and only slightly unhinged, I just finished this Lunenburg piece. BLUENOSE DRIVE, 12in x 30in, $950, available now on my website. Free shipping in North America, hopefully the strike is over by the time it's dry enough to box.

Google takes me to reddit for 99% of the answers to my questions. We should say redditing things instead of googling. Cut out the middleman.

"Two Blue Houses" 6in x 24in oil/impasto on canvas, $600. This newbie plus a couple others are on my website now.

There are still a few of these little guys available at www.jenniferharrison.org/tiny-houses. They're a little wet so it'll be another week or two before I can ship them, but when they're ready, shipping is free.

A folky painting of six tiny houses crowded together in various colours, each partially obscured with one or two windows showing like they're peeking over one another. Heavily textured and vaguely sloppy in the application of paint.
A painting of the back sides of two tall houses, deep yellow on the left with two windows, cream-coloured on the right with four windows. Both have chimneys, under a pale blue sky. Applied with thickly textured paint, simple and folky in their composition. Small slivers of red paint peek through between the houses.
Finishing off a bunch of these little guys over the next few days and hopefully on the website at jenniferharrison.org by the end of the week. Various sizes from 4in x 6in ($85) to 8in x 8in ($125), ready-to-hang oil/impasto on 3mm birch panels with poultry staple/hot glue hangers on the back.
