Gullible


 My other entry for the Square Foot show in Bismarck.  Used a photo i took on one of our trips to west coast.  the photo had many fancy boats in the background. We were at a restaurant and i remember being concerned about birds pooping on my fish and chips..

"Fiddler in the Garage"



I signed up to do a demo at G4 during the cocoa/coffee crawl.   I sketched this from a painting i did in oil about 50 years ago.  Neighbor, Frank, playing the fiddle at my folks 25th Ann. party in the garage.  The right side of painting is made-up thinking about our (Carl's) garage.  I especially loved the light bulb and his overalls.  tells a story of the times.

Sippy Straw


 March Theme at G4 is Mardi Gras .. Need i say more?  Yes, it is meant to be her mask ,, not her face.   Oh I had fun painting those "feathery shapes."  Yes, it's been a long winter.

"The Dog Ate It "


 The color is way off on this..  anyway, i used one of my Mom's doilies to make the pattern after i applied thick acrylic on canvas.   i then used a roller to press the doily into the pigment.  Our theme for Feb is Puzzles.. wha laa

 This painting is to fit in the really old 9x12 barn wood frame .  the color of the walls closely matches the color of the frame..  Gee, i love the feeling of this one..
