Doors

Had the opportunity to hang art on front wall at G4 this month.  I painted the top one to go with the shed door. I enjoy painting windows and doors and wood.  May have to add animals to make art buyers happy.  just joking.  
 

"Before they are gone"

 I love re-doing my art.  Theme this month at G4 is No Cents.  So what did I do??  Threw some pennies and glued them down.  Oh Ya !  Love how the one penny caught the light for the photo.  

Toad Float

 I entered the square foot show once again.  Started to paint this the day after i received the canvases in the mail.  obsessed with frogs lately..  What??  it is acrylic and has a weird vibe.  a step up from my normal. 

Small Town Kingpins 12-2-25 Sold to a favorite Langdonite today.

 I painted this in 2022 but apparently didn't post it on my blog. I've looked and looked (which i enjoy doing).  This is my favorite subject matter to paint. 

 These are 3 guys from my home town.  The photo appeared on FB a long time ago.  I changed the background, added a cigar, otherwise they are recognizable for sure.   Photo is a little pale.  

"Gotcha a present"

That time of the year again, where we exchange original painted cards at our meeting.  I have had this Christmas elf figure forever. He is made of paper mache, i think..  I actually laid him on my paper and drew around him with pencil then watercolored, as i do....  isn't he adorable????  

 

Joe's Boys! Commission

 My nephew, Joe, asked me to paint this watercolor using a photo he had taken 20 + years ago.  It was really fun.  My favorite part was painting the boys and their body language.  Joe was pleased, I hope.  

Theme wall 12-25 "Wishes"

To help me get thru a sad day (my friend Ag died today), I painted to get ready for the December theme wall at G4.  I added a candle to a 2010 painting of a cup cake.  and  it just seemed like a moon and star are fitting for Wishes.  I cut the image of the moon out of packing tape and it worked OK..
