Give the Gift of Art for Valentines Day

What can be more romantic than valentines, candy and hearts? And who is among the most famous romantic couples? The Man of Steel and Lois Lane of course!


This Trompe L'oeil painting has Valentines of Superman and Lois Lane from the 1940's and '50's. I've combined them with a heart shaped sucker with cellophane, a red ribbon, red hearts and a silver heart reflecting the blue sky

These prints are reproductions of my paintings.

This Print is available in the size of the original painting :9" x 12" In addition, there is a 1/2" white border around the image so the print can be easily matted. The price is $49 + $10 shipping = $59

Happy Hour - Oil on canvas


Happy Hour, oil on canvas, 20" x 24".

 This is one of my most challenging paintings.

The draped black and white striped fabric reflects off the silver and brass goblets and cocktail shaker. The transparent glasses also pick up the reflections and the ambient colors.
Wow this was a real brain teaser and required a lot of observation to get everything just right.

Coffee and Strawberries

 
Coffee and Strawberries,24" x 18" on canvas.

It's Strawberry season again! I love strawberries. I think they are the prettiest of all the fruits (until cherry season. Then they are the prettiest fruit)

The coffee pot is a 19th century family  heirloom which has been past down to me.  I chose this subject because I like painting reflections in silver.

CocaCola Cowboy by K Henderson


CocaCola Cowboy, 30 x 30, oil on linen

Lets step into the Way Back Machine and go to our childhood days. After school we sit at the kitchen table, listen to the Lone Ranger on the Radio (or watch him on TV). We have a snack of CocaCola and a Hostess Cupcake. Yum!

To assist the Masked Man in his adventures we have our Pony Boy six-shooter, holster with horse head and genuine plastic jewel, Lone Ranger Comic, a Silver horse figurine, and Lincoln logs.

Life is good!

Blue Skies


Blue Skies, 18 x 24, oil on canvas

Stripes and Reflections! My two favorite subjects to paint.

I took many reference photos for this painting. I set up this still life on the deck of my house. The reflections show the Blue New Mexico Sky, my pink stucco house and black and white striped fabric. The vehicle for the reflections is an antique silver creamer that belonged to my mother.
