House Flag Design Samples

I have always been interested in submitting my best designs to  house flag manufacturing companies, and since my old portfolio page is now being moved to a new site, there is no real place to showcase my art right now. For this reason, I am setting this page up to display my art pieces that I think are best suited for that market. I can also add any borders and text if needed. I hope you like what you see here.

Please feel free to contact me at mcprop@cox.net if you have any questions. Thank you.  Cheryl McNulty

Amish Girl 2 and Bird With A Quilt Pastel Paintings

Just finished these two  Amish-themed designs.  I think I am happy the way they turned out.  It was very different than what I am used to.  I left space in both paintings for an inspirational quote.  Hope you enjoy these!

Another Amish Pastel In The Works

This is the picture that was inspired from a photo of my daughter, Caitlin, when she was small. She will be transformed into an amish girl smelling a flower in the garden with a butterfly or two.  I seem to be stuck in the garden of flowers as I am not sure what colors I want to use…so I sit and stare…and try to picture it in my mind.  I will try and finish this by mid-week at most.  Then, I will share it with you, I promise!  Any ideas…please share!

Blackboard Snowman In Pastel

I just did a re-do of an old design for Christmas.  It’s a snowman done in pastels on black pastel paper. The results look like a drawing done in chalk on a blackboard, which is a popular look today in art design.

I really like the look.  I think I will try other designs just like this with other seasonal images.  Back to the drawing board!

 

 

Woman Chef in Pastels

Just finished a picture of a woman chef to go with my other man chef picture. The colors are slightly different, but they are both awesome!  It was rather difficult to find a woman chef picture  anywhere as far as I could see. Don’t know why that is!  But anyway, hope you like this one. 

Two More Christmas Pictures in Pastel

Here are 2 more completed pictures for Christmas.  They are both Santas (of course) and I actually got brave and did a horizontal one!  It was interesting to try. Enjoy! 

 

Santa and Snowmen, New Pictures

Sorry so long in posting…I have been busy trying to find which media to stay with, as I am all over the place.  I seem to be falling back to pastels though, as I really love the realistic look to it.

I did the snowmen pics in acrylics, which were fun…but the Santa was really fun.  I just love to blend and get the colors so vibrant!  Anyway, I hope you like these.

 

 

Love Sampler in Acrylics

Sorry it’s been so long, but I am trying to improve my portfolio and it takes a lot of extra time!

Just wanted to share something new I decide I’d try, and that is paint a quilt block like a sampler, since I know I will never really “sew” one.  I love the look, but I think I will add some stitching around the edges of the hearts and border to give it that “sewn” look.

What do you think?  I may just do a set of these..with other wording.  Let me know.

Peace Angel in Acrylics

Thought I would try my hand at acrylics, and this time I did one of my favorite subjects…angels.  I had to play with this one for awhile and I finally figured out how to blend and highlight a little better, which is kind of difficult with this medium, as it dries rather quickly.  Anyway, hope you like it…

 

Four New Acrylic Paintings

Here are four new acrylic paintings I have been working on.  It was fun to try these new ideas and just practice the blending techniques and brushstrokes.  It’s all so new to me, but now I just want to try all types of pictures.  I can’t wait.  Hope you like these.
