The Cleansing Spring Rain, 48x36in, oil on canvas. There was a perfect rain the other day and it made me miss that brick wall, and the way that it affected everything in the courtyard - the tones, the richness, the light...the new wall of wood just isn’t the same. I’m glad it found its way into some paintings before it fell. #oilpainting #oiloncanvas #painting #figurativeart #figurativerealism #contemporaryrealism #artcollective #artcollectors #muse #springrain #rainyday #brick #wet #bluehairdontcare #theguideartists #lookup #benjialexanderpalus (at New Orleans, Louisiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByP2MrUn1be/?igshid=1shjxk9jjhfum

In the mood to post something bright and picturesque. The setting is from my imagination, but it’s always seemed to me to be in high altitudes...maybe Switzerland? #paint #picturesque #mountainflowers #oilpainting #portrait #portraitpainting #figurativeart #figurativerealism #contemporaryrealism #bluesky #earlywork #muse https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx7HyQan6Vm/?igshid=d37y1she2tza

I was going to write that my favorite pieces are the nostalgic ones, the ones that transport me back to a cherished time and place...but they all do that, lol! That’s why I paint them!

So I’ve been thinking about following others’ examples and starting a new page just for my photography, keeping this one just for paintings, sketches, etc. Would anyone be interested in coming along? #photography #photographer #lifessimplepleasures #littlemuse #littlephotographer #pink https://www.instagram.com/benji.a.palus.art/p/BxcWVYTARlm/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=nx0gq3qsnjx4

My feed needs a little sunlight! ☀️🙂 Zen Fountain, 40x30in, oil on canvas. I enjoy that despite extensive and intricately planned photo shoots, a lot of my favorite paintings are set in my own little apartment/courtyard, spur of the moment. 😋 #oilpainting #figurativepainting #figurativerealism #realism #portraitpainting #zen #fountain #bluehairdontcare #sunlight #dappled #divinefeminine #instaart #figurativeart #muse (at New Orleans, Louisiana) https://www.instagram.com/benji.a.palus.art/p/BxM_wcAAaRM/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=h5jrvrfyxxno
