COPY CAT

 Had alot of orange pigment on my palette yesterday, so  i smeared and blotted and sneezed (just kidding) on an 8x10 canvas board. Then, I actually "copied" this image from the computer.  don't ever do that but this was so fun.  Halloween is coming.   

"Green Door to Nowhere"

 

I painted this earlier this year as a partner to "Back Shed Decor" (that i also changed somewhat) It is posted on this blog on Jan 3, 2026.   This painting was quite dark plus there were no hinges on the door.. geez.  Also painted some broken glass and that was not easy.  My favorite subject this year.. old wood, windows and doors. ----  That look like old wood, windows and doors..  

My Kyds painted in the 70's -- HAGS demo

 

I have had these paintings hanging in my bedroom forever.  I took them down to dust behind them.. ugh.{ i could stuff a pillow with the fuzz/dust}.. they were held in frames with tacks and nails.  I painted with Oils then. .  they were in grade school when i did these . 

 I did this watercolor portrait demo at HAGS last week  ( I showed my Kyds painting as examples}

"R Daisies Blue?" 10-17-26 Sold at G4 today

 I painted this Yesterday, and I didn't do anything else.  The canvas was painted awhile ago with left over paint from my Tall Trees painting, mostly orangy tones...   reference was a photo i took of a vase of flowers years ago.  Fascinated by the daisies being blue. Way before AI ..  ha.  

 Background is a bit messy and streaked but I'll call it cool.    

Tall Trees and Some Rocks

 I'm enjoying painting on this format. It actually took me 3 days to paint this in Acrylic.  I wanted autumn leaves against dark sky.  I had a photo taken in Oregon in 1996 with a zillion trees and loved the color contrast.  I kinda made up the lower 3/4 of this work as i went along. And I used my 'stay-wet' palette that i hadn't used in years .

                                                         I plead the 5th.  

Arranged by B

 My niece Becky has retired (What??) and has gotten into gardening and arranging flowers in the most beautiful ways.  This is my interpretation of one, using a photo she sent.  I painted it yesterday cause i was needing to create something.
