Rear Doors 2-24-25 Title changed to " Alley Cats "

Well, today i added a couple of cats.  I didn't draw them ahead, i just sloshed the paint on with eyes and a pink nose.  they are so cute and i don't really like cats.  Title needed to change, as well. 

Hard to explain where the idea of this came from. I did see a painting on the PC of a pinkish wall with blue door and window plus lots of flowers.  I liked the feeling it had.   This is done is Acrylic. I also think the interiors that Van Gogh did stick in my psyche. (Whatever, sounds good)   
 

Cold, but Calm

 I've been looking thru old photos of my old paintings for ideas.  This turned out really emotional for me for some reason.  Turned out way different than the watercolor I did in the 80's that i used for reference.  But I think just remembering my art journey gets me teary.  The artists and friends I've met and still have.  sigh!!!

"Accessories from Long Ago" Sold off Facebook to friend

 I volunteered to do a demo during the studio crawl at G4.  it was fun but had more comments about my glasses matching my shirt than about my watercolor technique.  not surprised!  

I added the hats and mannequins in back after i got back to my studio, listening to Classical MPR .. 

Once in a Blue Moon SOLD

7-21-25  Added a little more cloud action to this.  not sure if it improved it.  they look a bit like cauliflowers now, ugh.   
 

I stopped my car and took a photo of this cloud formation while driving on University Dr. a while ago.    The theme for Nov at G4 is "Space, Moon Stars "  So I am ready. 

 Acrylic painting done in one afternoon, after hearing that my sweet cousin, Janice, is being put on Hospice.  Creating art does get one through the day, sometimes.
