Me

 

I found this photo on my computer somewhere..  couldn't find it again.  Wanted to replace the 20 year old photo in my bio. so i put it here, then fiddled around and got it moved, i think.

 This was a painting party at Beth's house on Christmas a couple of years ago.. when Jonathan's family was here for holiday fun.  

Wood Pile Strut

 It's really all about the Frame.  This one has been in my house with a photo in it for over 30 years.  Painted this odd work this week to go in the "frame".   i may take it to a show and charge $600 for the frame and throw in the painting..  I wonder if Uncle Bill made this one as well.    

Curb Appeal (and some history)

   I took the photo of the cans in the 80's in Langdon, Painted the acrylic version in the "00s (my niece Tanya Scully owns it), I did the pencil sketch last week and then painted it in watercolor yesterday. Photo is a little dull.  Not sure if the tree needs more attention and maybe more branches.  Fun to revisit my work from long ago.  

flowers from neighbor

My neighbor Joe, brought these beautiful lilies over.  I have wanted to paint that crazy vase that i saw somewhere, so i put Joe's flowers in it.  Background was stamped and smeared a while ago.  
 

No Float

 I painted this 8x10 acrylic today while my son-in-law took my car to the shop.  He is the best.  ANYWAY, i found the pencil sketch i had done many years ago and had painted in W/C. {it is hanging at my son's home in Oregon.}  This was fun 'cause i had painted the canvas orange with "left over" paint from my last project and wah-la, it worked.

Blue and Yellow

 Hooked on the 8"x10"s ..  Friend Sheri gave me a lemon that she got from her sister who brought it back from California.  (that is too much info) . and I put it in my favorite bowl and wah lah.  

"Do Fish Kiss?" 7-12-25 Sold at CAAC show

 Friend Sharon brought me a lot of smaller frames last week.  i gave some away but kept a few 8x10s.  ordered a packet of 8x10 canvas boards and wah lah..   i've painted these little circle fish b/4.  a fun project for Memorial Day '25.
