Parrot's Place SOLD 8-24 @ G4


 My grandson, Jonathan, had taken a photo at the L.A. zoo and i loved the composition (he is so talented).  I asked his permission to paint this, using his photo.. How can he say no to his granny???  anyway, it is done in watercolor and i painted it to keep my mind busy after his little brother, Sam, was in a tragic construction accident a week ago today.   I imagine this work will always remind my of the accident and our worrisome hours afterward.

Mrs amd Mr Tree


 Another month, another theme wall....   July will be window frame art.  I found this at an antique shop.  (couldn't find a free one)  The interesting part was the glass in the frame, as it had ripples in it.  I had planned to paint the back of the glass and have it show thru but the trees looked very crude.  I turned it over and put a black cardboard behind and wa lah..   

  The Mrs tree has put down roots and the Mr Tree is living the easy life.  Message there?
