Peaches (sold)

Peaches, oil on linen, 9" X 12", 2011
sold

You may have noticed some deviation from my fairly regular 5x7 sized pieces. I've been preparing for an end of year show at Brackenwood Gallery, and I've been trying to vary things a bit. This is a nice sized stretched canvas, floating in a box frame.

Also...

How would you like a free painting?

I just updated my main website: jasonwaskey.com and I desperately need a squadron of eagle eyes to give it the once over and report bugs/problems.

I will give away two paintings... one to the first person who reports a bug, and the next to the person who reports the largest number of bugs.

What counts as a bug? Broken links, failed image loading, 404 File Not Found, that sort of thing. Basically, if it looks wonky, let me know.

Typos count as half a bug. Two typos = one bug.

If you choose to accept this mission, you have until October 24th to report your bugs. Send me your bug reports !

Please feel free to pass this offer along to your eagle eyed friends!

Happy Birthday to Me (Stewpot) (sold)


 Stewpot, oil on linen, 5" X 7", 2011
sold
It's my birthday! :) 

I love Julian Merrow-Smith's tightly cropped little masterpieces. When I found this earthenware jug/pot, I knew it called out for something similar. One of the few sunny summer Seattle days we had gave nice reflections of sky and lush greenery.


This painting arrives matted and framed with overall dimensions of 16 X 20 inches.

It has been a while since I've painted fish. I had a hankering to do another-- and I wanted to try something a little more ambitious. I headed to Pike Place and found this beauty.



















This painting comes to you in a custom made frame, ready to hang.

This painting is framed a little differently than my others. It arrives matted and framed with overall dimensions of 16 X 20 inches. The mat and frame add to the overall price a bit, worth it for the effect it delivers.
