Marsh Impressions I - 2" x 2.75"


2" x 2.75" oil painting on stretched mini canvas

For the longest time I've had a few of these tiny stretched canvases that I picked up on a whim one day at an art store. I had forgotten about them. They're cute enough alone, but are really fun when paired with a mini easel. (I should have gotten a photo of it on one of the small easels, but for the life of me I couldn't remember where I stashed the easels.)

They're great for using up that leftover paint at the end of the day.

Winding - 5x7 Oil Painting


5"x7" oil painting on archival canvas panel
SOLD

I've obviously been hooked on painting these winding marsh scenes lately. I enjoy them for their simplicity, and their symbolism of an expanse of nature seemingly untouched.

Lonely Cloud Marsh - 18x24 Oil Painting

Lonely Cloud Marshland Landscape by Kerri Settle
18"x24" oil painting on stretched canvas
SOLD

It's been hectic lately so I haven't gotten as many new paintings listed as I'd like, but hopefully that will change in the next week. This painting was inspired by a little one I painted a few weeks ago, with that lonely cloud wandering over.

Drifting - 20x20 Oil Painting




Closeup of detail:

20"x20" oil painting on stretched canvas
SOLD

There was something about this painting that my camera was at odds with. It's taken a lot of tweaking and this is close, but there's a bit of subtlety and luminance lost versus the actual painting. Sometimes the photographing is harder than the painting!


I've very drawn to these pristine, expansive beaches with giant clouds looming overhead. My favorite part of going to the beach has always been to watch the clouds, while hearing the ocean crash around me. Painting these scenes always brings that back.

Fog creeps over marshland; I love the silvery light that fog brings. It's definitely a favorite subject of mine to paint.
