Wings Of Peace


Good day to all!!! Especially this day of Memorial Day long weekend. So, that is why the auction trafiic is very slow today. The reason being is that everyone is out enjoying the beginning of summer weeks. I just finished another butterfly painting titled: Wings Of Peace. Peace is the springtime of the soul. This moment of peace we can think right, work, play, enjoy the day, etc. There is no fear, no stress, just all serene and beauty within. This peace that we are enjoying is no other than our creator and giver of life that shines from within us. Enjoy His peace that we can live the best of life now.

Exchange Of Joy


As you all know I have a studio in New Jersey, USA and in Costa Rica where I am currently getting my latest inspirations to paint. About two weeks ago I was thinkinng on what to paint. A few butterflies came before my eyes along the corner of a bird feeder in a beautiful tropical garden where I am staying here in Costa Rica. I said to myself these butterflies have no problems they just fly with joy and beauty. When I saw these butterflies they were like magnets that drew joy in my heart. I finally created this painting above and title this: Exchange Of Joy. This is currently in auction with a very low starting price. This is one of my huge size paintings with three canvasses in acrylic paints. I invite you to check it out. Thanks for reading my blog.

Painting More For Auction


I am very pleased to know that I am already putting my finished paintings in auction. This day is a bit busy and hectic especially that my new computer needs my important things to be in placed like my softwares, printer, scanner, etc. All of them were disconnected when my previous computer broke. My painting session and art auctions were delayed. Thank God that everything is getting in place. How I wish I would just paint without worrying about these things but I have to be connected to the world.

The painting above is one of my favorite abstract that I did. I would like to show the different divine virtues of the Holy Trinity. You see different hues of colors which suggested the colors of divine love. What is interesting here is that this actually are three paintings in one with a huge size that will cover your wall with beauty. This is in acrylic title: Triple Grace. This is currently in art auction with a starting price of $49.95.

Keep visiting my auction because there are more coming to be listed.

The Divine Sun


I am very busy as usual finishing my new original paintings to get ready for my new Ebay auction listings. I am finished with my mystical butterfly paintings. These are three paintings (triptych) with about 11x14 inches each when put together the size will be about 33x14 inches The paintings show a beautiful composition of 4 colorful butterflies flying in one line before a beautiful sunset. I am still thinking of what title to put on this. This should depict an inspirational and spiritual meaning. This is awesome! I am excited to list this in the next couple of days.

In the meantime the painting above have a big size too. There are two paintings which are a part of each other. Everytime I saw a sunflower it brings to my mind the beauty of the "sun". We all depend on the sun which gives us a lot of benefits to ourselves and the environment around. This painting symbolizes the greatness of our creator which is the "Divine Sun". This was already purchased by an art collector from Florida.

Creatively Inspired

It is a very sunny day here in Costa Rica. Beautiful morning with radiant blue sky, breezy refreshing wind, birds are singing and praising the beauty of nature. It is an awesome day! I went out for a walk to get some creative inspirations to re-charge my creativity and continue my painting escapade.

I am working on a big red daisy acrylic painting. Over here in Costa Rica dasies are growing abundantly. I picked it us my favorite subject this time. These are two paintings (diptych) with a huge size of about 12x28 inches each and when put together will be approximately 24x28 inches. The daisy flower is close up with luscious red scarlet petals. This is one of my favorites among the big paintings that I am working on now. I can't wait to list it! Hopefully this Sunday pm will be its listing time. I will also post an image of it here in my blog soon.

Acrylic is one of the most durable medium. I thought that I would give it a try to start my new paintings in auctions in this medium. It has many advantages aside from its fast drying ability. I am sure it will increase my productivity. Okey please keep on visitng my auctions it will be showing at Ebay art category soon.

Colors Of Resurrection


I am very excited to start listing my new original oil paintings soon
which I am painting on the spot in the tropics of the beautiful country of
Costa Rica. I arrived almost two weeks ago in my nature field art studio here
in Costa Rica after my five month painting sessions in my New Jersey USA
studio. I have been selling successfully my paintings from Costa Rica and
from New Jersey for the past year and a half. I have some new
unique original painting ideas with big sizes that will be listed hopefully this
Sunday or middle of next week.

I think I have been away for quite some time already in my art auction listings. I am sure a lot of my followers are wondering...."where are Jude's art auctions?". Well very soon you will find my new stuff coming so keep on watching my Ebay art auctions.

Easter season is a very important event for me. It means new life and victory. It reminds us that we have to embrace happiness and peace. Our loneliness or sadness does not have the right to exist anymore. Be happy but the genuine one which is "inner joy"!

The painting above which I listed for auction few weeks ago is a very appropriate one for Easter. This painting shows the colors of what I meant above. In the next few days you will see my new original paintings in auction. There will be a lot coming so keep on visitng my art auction in Ebay. To find me type my ID paintingsjude in the Ebay.com art category search box. Thank you for reading my blog.

Morning Bath



It has been a busy week but thank God I was able to manage and finish the big painting that I was commissioned to do. This is a different one than the ones I did for myart auctions. This painting portrayed the interest of the person who commissioned me. She was inspired to asked me to do this painting because she loves her life where she grew up and reminded her of the beautiful memories of her past especially where they used to live in a place with refreshing landscapes with mountains, colorful flowers and golden rice fields. I took what my client loves and put it in canvas with my creativity and my own composition. This art piece showed also what I love to do and believe, "There is a relationship of love in all created things". This painting is displayed in her beautiful house in Piscataway, New Jersey, USA. The title of this painting is "Morning Bath", original art oil painting, size 36width x 48height, 2thick, inches stretched canvas. Thanks for reading my blog.

Exchange Of Love


I have been busy for a couple of weeks finishing my big commission painting. Finally it is done! I just delivered it this afternoon to the house of this art lover. She was so happy to see it and hung it right away in the middle of her living room. I can't wait to share an image of this art piece with you. Soon I will show it here in my blog. Because of this I have not listed my art in auction for a while. Aside from my commission, I am working on some new prints that I will be listing soon in my Ebay store. Actually I just listed a few today. One is a lavender phalinopsis and the other one is a fantasy floral art with hummingbird. I will be listing some more prints soon especially my cat prints.

This print is one of my favorites and has a very affordable price of $55.00. I will be offering discounts in my Ebay store soon. So keep on visiting my store. I titled this Exchange Of Love. This was inspired from the beautiful country of Costa Rica. The place where I live has a beautiful tropical garden with hummingbirds visiting me occasionally while I paint. Everyone of us want to receive love and eventually give this love back to the giver. In this reciprocal exchange of love alone can satisfy us perfectly. "If we Love we will in return receive Love".

Butterfly & Rose, "Rejoice"


This oil painting was in auction few weeks ago and a lucky collector
from Michigan was the winner. I am fun of butterflies because it is
symbolic to our spiritual side. If we see a flower whatever it is, it
gives us a sense of joy and when a butterfly touches it, it doubles the
joy we felt. Don't you know that the "joy" we felt was God's joy. His own
happiness that wanted to follow us and embrace us. He wanted to share
it with us because He loves us. If we are attentive, we will discover
God in all of His creation. So be happy and rejoice!

This flower with a butterfly painting is a popular piece of my painting
collection
. With its popular demand, I will create a few more of this
subject and auction them in the next couple of weeks. I am also planning
to create quality prints of this particular piece. So stay tuned and
keep on visiting my art auction to get updates.

I am almost done with the painting that I was commissioned to do.
Hopefully in the next couple of days I will be showing you a photo of it here in
my blog. This piece has a huge size 36x48 inches. I rarely do big sizes but a lot
of my collectors are requesting me to create original oil paintings with
bigger sizes like 16x20 or bigger in triptych and diptych. Their dreams will come
true soon! I am planning to create these big sizes and will be updating you
on its listing dates in the next month or so. Thank you for reading my blog.
I hope that you enjoyed my creations and you were inspired by them. Until my next blog. Have a great weekend!

Working On Commissions

It's been a long time since I posted here. Actually I am eager to tell you what I have been doing lately. You probably have noticed that I list my art auctions less and less. I really do not want this to happen because I want to maintain a consistency of my listings. One of the reason is I am working on a huge painting commission, size 36x48 inches in oil on stretched canvas.I am almost finish and a few elements to be painted on. I am working on a composition of figures on a landscape painting. When I get a chance I will show it to you here in my blog. I can't wait to finish it and start my art auctions again. Actaully in between I painted one Butterfly oil painting which I will list this Sunday. Okey so much for today. Back to work in my easle. See you soon in my next post.

My Valentine Red Rose



Valentine's Day is the day of the hearts. It is widely celebrated
expressing each others love. I have been waiting for this day to paint
something that I would like to express to everyone what I meant about
this meaningful day. Above is the new original oil painting I just
created which expressed what I meant about LOVE.

The truth is we can not see the love hidden in each flower but we
can see it if we desire to act this love. In each flower, there is a
voice that wants to be heard. The words of the "I Love You". The flower
finds us to let her sweet scent be smelled and be delighted. It grows in
the garden to be noticed, adored and enjoyed. She needs the voice of our
hearts so that she will no longer be mute but can speak the "I Love You"
that she's been waiting to receive from us. The truth is the source of
its life is no other than our Divine Creator who is also the source of
love. Let us be the voice of LOVE.....to give LOVE and to be LOVED.

A lot of my clients were asking me before if I have a red rose with
figures same as the Blue Rose painting with figures that I did before
which you actually find in my Ebay store. Their dreams came true! I realy
meant to do one that is red and it is very timely when
a client of mine called me few weeks ago to commission me to do one.

I was commissoned to create this original oil painting as a Valentine's
gift for his wife. The size of this painting is 16"x20" on stretched
canvas with a title
"Fruit Of Love". This original art has a new home together with his other
art collections in Queens, New York. Quality prints of this painting
will be availbale soon at my Ebay store. If you want to receive updates
of the up coming prints please let me know by sending me a message thru
my website. Happy Valentine's Day!

Butterfly Reveals Victory


I was inspired by the beauty of butterflies. They make me happy
and bring peace in my heart. They remind me of the freedom and peace
that our creator gave us. They also remind me of the victory and breaking
of the bondage of slavery in passion. I want to show all of these in canvas
and preserve the meaning that these butterflies reveal. The name of this
painting is "Victory".

A lucky winner won this in an auction at Ebay few days ago. Just to inform you,

my paintings that are in auction are worth between $350.00 to $700.00. Get

Divine Mirror


I was trying to think of an idea to paint when suddenly a landscape with a clear lake came to my mind. I was reminded of how when our hearts are not in peace will symbolize in a river that has a lot of waves. A mountain in the horizon will not be able to reflect its image on the lake, however if we are in peace, it is symbolized in a mountain that its image is reflected on a calm, clear, crystal lake like a mirror.

I immediately prepared a canvas to paint this idea and I titled this "Divine Mirror". The image of God is reflected like a mirror in our hearts in times of peace.
Ponder on this and will invite us to be at peace. This original art oil painting, which is currently on sale, can be purchased at my Ebay store by clicking at the title above or go to Ebay "art" category and find my ID: paintingsjude. Thank you for reading my art blog.

My New Year Art Auctions


It was great to have time again to blog! I was so busy for the past few weeks enjoying the holidays with my family here in New Jersey, USA. I came back to my studio in New Jersey from my Costa Rica art scene. This new year is a miracle from God where I was inspired to bring back to Him what He had given me. I asked myself in what way? My answer is, I will express what He had given me in the form of a painting. Every brush stroke I will render is my "I Love You" to my creator.

I also reviewed what I had done in the past year in terms of my career as an artist. This year I will be more aware in promoting and selling my artwork to the people who will love my paintings. As you know that most often I auction my paintings to the best low price so the public will have a chance to purchase my paintings in a very affordable price. I am currently working on some new and fresh subject matters for my paintings this new year. I just started listing some new ones which you can find in my Ebay store. I invite you to join in the bidding and wish that you will win. All of these original oil paintings have very low starting price of $39.00 with a value of about $350.00 each.

Love Is Patient


It was a busy week for me especially at this Holiday Season. The art show I had at Starbucks was a success! I meet a lot of people and got new prospects and a big sale. I am demonstrating my art style and my philosphy behind by painting as I do it there live. I paint what I believe that, "there is a relationship of love in all created things". I am going to have another one art show this Sunday Dec. 18, 11 am to 2 pm at Starbucks, Cedar Grove Lane, Somerset New Jersey. Hope to see you there.

All things created came from the heartbeat of love and thru this a Red Hibiscus came into being. Every petals of this hibiscus speaks of love and patiently revealing its beauty to the eye of the beholder. I call this piece "Love Is Patient". This was sold in my Ebay art auctions. You may click the title above and view my current art auctions.

My Red Rooster Painting



I have been preparing for my trip back to New Jersey that is why I have'nt been blogging for a couple of days. Finally I am back to New Jersey after a couple of months in Costa Rica creatively inspired by the tropical beauty of nature. I have brought with me a couple of paintings which are currently in auction at Ebay. I am happy to be invited to have a small art show in Starbucks store at Somerset, New Jersey for two Sundays from 11 am to 2 pm. I will be painting live and demonstrate my philosophy in canvas "there is a relationship of love in all created things".

Today I would like to share with you the beauty that I have captured painting a red rooster. We always see a rooster with an image of strong, robust and serious look. In this painting I created him to be friendly and playful. The interesting aspect here is that he is playing not with his fellow chickens but with some butterflies. I want to tell everyone in my painting that love extends not only in men but also in nature. I named this painting "Friendly". This was already in auction and a lucky collector won this piece. I will be creating a new rooster art soon. Keep on checking my auction in Ebay (ID: paintingsjude).
