Just 2 irises

 

Flower Power, huh?  photo is pale.  i plan to put a free frame on it.  planned to spray paint wood frame white and it took me an hour to get the lid off the spray can..  longer that it took me to paint the irises..  

draw-me

added color and specs  yes, I know they are askew.. 

 fun day.  we had a mini workshop with the infamous Jackie Anderson, drawing our portraits using a hand mirror.   What a variety of artwork there was at the end of the session.  i spent more time on my earrings, than on my wrinkles..  

Nature's Touch Down

 Had this free canvas that was painted really blue for awhile..

  On the trip back home from Hawley art show last week, the sunset was so spectacular that i just had to paint what was in my memory of it.   Well, i had planned to put the infamous farm scene in foreground..  but i decided to paint it ochre-ish first.  I spritzed it for some reason and got those little ghost trees..    Happy accident???   

Purple Faire #2

 I painted this a while ago.. took it out of the frame/matt and saw that it is square..  more background..  i darkened and lightened areas, added more color..   i may frame it square.  have always loved it.   

Bloomin' Early

I painted this Saturday during my stint at West Acres Mall.  i dug up some old photos  of our irises for reference .. I visited with a lot of folks at the mall.  It was fun, as usual.   

White of the paper usually does not photograph well.. ugh..   but I photographed this outside so flash wasn't as strong ..  yes, outside...  

Willie-Nillie Gifted

 i painted this at West Acres Mall in the art room where G4 members are exhibiting for a month.  We are taking turns demo-ing.. is that a word?  anyway, this looks like Willie is going in for a colonoscope, by the expression on his face.. not my best work..   

Crow Envy 2 new title "Crow Bros"

 I remodeled my Crow Envy that i painted a couple of year ago for the Crow Show at the Spirit room.  They needed something added.  My friend Marcy suggested hats and i went for it.  also redid the background. 

  i thought about calling them Jim and Donald Crow.  but i opted not to..   eek
