Chicken Magnet Sold in Langdon, as well...

6-9-17  Once again redoing paintings.. I really changed this rooster's attitude. in fact he is a different guy altogether.  Loved the background so didn't mess with that.  

Using my drawing from "Mister R", I did it again in acrylic..I got a little carried away on the background, using kleenex, old stamps, glazing and sweat..

Well, this rooster put on some weight since last year.  i painting over some of this today, hoping to improve it yet again.  as i added this photo, the original one disappeared, darn!!  Not sure if it was an improvement or not.  so love the background.  

Mr.Greenie ordering a grasshopper SOLD

I thought I'd paint him again. . He seems to be hanging on a bar asking for a drink..

I need a title..?? wedding gift...

I got the idea for this from a foreign film I was watching. I took a photo of the image on the TV screen, very blurred and weird but loved painting the window, especially. . But I don't have a title.   Guy in a suit on a bike?? Not the norm, here in ND, for sure.

I darkened the weak shadows, after Anda's workshop, I'm darkening a lot of weakness in my work. .

Farm Buildings Sold

This is a watercolor I did on #300 paper last night, after I scrubbed the pigment off a painting I did @ the cormorant workshop 2 summers ago. Those luscious corals & blues were still there. Note: it is kinda the same farm as on my "frog" painting.

Did a little adjustment on this..  May be better, Like the trees better,  Thank you, Dad, for passing your artistic talent onto me and also thanks for the privilege of growing up on a farm..

"the farm frog" traded for pottery

Going through old drawings. Found these farm buildings (love the shapes)..thought I'd do the pears one more time BUT saw my sketch of "greenie", whom I had painted b/4.. and put him on a fence..what fun, huh???
Did a trade for pottery at the cormorant show.

pears & house, then barn, then pears replaced by GOATS??? sold

What? Another pear painting?
This is a good day.. I put wires on 6 paintings all by my little old self..

Revisited and made it more to my liking.  i seem to be obsessed with the barn images.  Pears stayed the same. 

downton abbey fans Gifted to a DA fan...

I know I am getting a little carried away with the pear thing, but, gee,they are fun to paint....

"What's up??" SOLD

I found a sketch of these Herford's among my old art stuff..I drew & painted them in acrylic on this watercolor painting of the fantasy trees, that I didn't like much.. fun!!
