The red door Wedding gift

My second entry for the square foot show, later this summer. I used some shapes, etc, from my son, Matt 's photo.. had planned the bike to be an important part of the work. It got smaller and smaller  as I worked out the prespective & angles. Wonderful colors, I think, any way...

Patio scene

Acrlyic on stretched canvas,using a photo I took on my patio last summer..I was stewing about paying $8 for that little pansy plant..  I intended it to be "lakey" but it looks more "oceany"..

"Heading to open water" Donated to fund raiser 7-18

I took several photos of these oregon geese on my walks this winter..they were always lined up so nicely. .I'm really excited about how the background reeds turned out..I just went for it, as they say.

"Hey, there's more shopping down here!" Made Matt take it to his house 12-20

When son, Matt, showed me his photos from one of his vacations.. I instantly wanted to paint this image. ..it's acrylic on canvas that was painted ultramarine blue.. some of which shows through in places..so love this one..
