White Hollyhocks

                                                         10" X 20" Oil on cradle board

I love white Hollyhocks. In fact I love white flowers in general.The Beehive House in S.L.C, Utah has the most beautiful white, pink and almost burgundy hollyhocks. It is a never ending source for old fashioned flowers. It is defiantly worth seeing in the summer and early fall.

Forever Friends

"Forever Friends"

12" X 12"  watercolor on 300# Paper

Terry Moss

I took this Original watercolor painting and revamped it. It is now ready to sell at my art show coming up. This brought back lots of memories of a trip I took to Bath, England with my Mom, Sister and a few of my cousins. I followed these ladies around trying to get their picture. I loved the white hair. I wish I would have gotten their names so I could have sent them a copy of this painting

These colorful mixture of  chickens are finished. Ready to be sold at a gallery shop in Montana. I will be spending the next few weeks there to be with family and friends.

                                                    oil on canvas board by Terry  Moss

I needed to paint some chickens so this is my first attempt at  the subject. It was fun to just mess round a little and to try a few bolder strokes. Ready to start the final painting. I will post it tomorrow.

This is a revised version of the original. I worked on the water a little more. I think this will do.

Alpine View

                                                "Alpine View"  9 X 12  Oil on board.
                                                                By Terry Moss

For all you nature lovers enjoy a walk through the trees. Had a great time painting this. It reminds me of the trip we took above Park City, Utah last year.   Nature- Love, Oil Painting- Love,  Art- Love.

Upper Stillwater

                                                      "Reflection on Upper Stillwater"
                                                         8 X 10 oil on canvas board
                                                                   by Terry Moss

The upper Stillwater is a fabulous place to kayak, for great views of the mountains and to see wildlife of every kind. We had a great time with friends the day I snapped this photo reference. We were sitting on the bank having our lunch and taking it all in. When I finished this painting the other day it made me homesick for Montana. I can't wait for Summer so we can visit again. Next time, I will paint the kayaks.

Purple Sage

"Purple Sage" 9 X 12 oil on board

by Terry Moss

I have been very busy painting lately and this one is fresh off the easel. The Sage brush was beautiful on the mountain side just above the Heber Valley. 

 My Moose has turned into a 24"X 24" gallery wrapped canvas. It looks great above Thomas' mantel. If you want your own Moose on canvas (any size) contact me at  terrycmoss@gmail.com

Life's a Bear

I like my pears some what firm.

I started painting these pears when they were green and hard. By the time I was done they were so ripe I could not eat them.
I like to eat my pears some what firm but I came up with a great painting so it made it worth letting them ripen more than I like.

Loose Moose

This was another demo for my watercolor class. I tried to put as much color on the paper as I could. The effect is a warm and bright painting.

My students were challenged with the task of staying loose, to use lots of color and to let the paint mix on the paper. They all came through with flying colors.

Great Job everyone!
