Cleome


CLEOME
James R. Huntsberger
Oil on Canvas


This is one of the still life paintings I have completed recently. Janet grows Cleome near the back edge of our property because it requires little water or care and provides a bright spot of color and cut flowers. Cleome reseeds itself, which is fine with us, but if you don't want it to take over your flowerbeds, please remember to cut off the flower heads as they turn to seed!

This 14" x 11" canvas, framed in an antiqued-gold wooden frame, is priced at $1,200.


I will introduce Cleome at the Ronald McDonald House of Delaware Art Fest on Friday evening, November 2, 2007.

HENLOPEN LIGHT III

by James R. Huntsberger
Oil on Canvas
Canvas size 24" x 24"

Framed in an three-inch wide antiqued black wooden frame with a one-inch white linen liner, Henlopen Light III is priced at $2,250.

This is a view of the lighthouse at Cape Henlopen where the Delaware River and Bay join the Atlantic Ocean. Built one mile from the water during the 1700's, the buildings slid into the ocean in 1926 when the land eroded.

This original oil will be one of the many paintings and reproductions I will display at the

18th and Broom Street - Wilmington, Delaware
Free and open to the public

I will be one of the 19 professional artists showing their art in the Salesianum High School gym. In addition, a full program of student art and music is planned. Check the school's website at http://www.salesianum.org/ to see the entire schedule of events.

The Salesianum Parents Music Association will be serving hot dogs, barbecue pulled-pork sandwiches, snacks and beverages outside the main entrance throughout the day. Stop by to enjoy some delicious food and support the Salesianum music program.

Proceeds of art sales will benefit the Salesianum Art Department.

Meconopsis



MECONOPSIS
Oil on Panel
James R. Huntsberger



I found these unusual blue poppies growing in the Conservatory at Longwood Gardens during the winter. These are Alpine flowers so they will not grow well outside in our warm, humid summer climate in Delaware.
This is an original painting by James R. Huntsberger.
It is an oil painting on board, and is 5" x 7."

Oil on Canvas
James R. Huntsberger
