Mikey

It's been a long time since I've posted, lots of life happening, but probably it's just my new Iphone sucking up too much of my time.  I've not had a "smart" phone before, and I have to tell you, I have been way too excited about it.
I met this Border Collie (and his human) at a gas station during a road trip a while back.  He was sitting in the front seat waiting while the car was filled up.  I got a couple of great photos of him.  He reminded me so much of my dad's dog, Mikey, who also rode in the front seat everywhere my dad went.

White Mug

Earlier this month I had the amazing good fortune to attend Carol Marine's oil painting workshop at the Coppini Acadamy in San Antonio.  She was incredible.  Watching her demo each day was a thing of beauty. I am still processing all that she had to teach us.

Snow Day

Last week we had our first snow of the season.  Flurries at first, then by afternoon the roads were a mess, and a couple of inches had accumulated.  But, it is Alabama, so by dinner time most of it had melted.  I painted this little guy in honor of our snow day.  Click here to buy.

Erasers

My entry in the Dailypaintworks "Glass Challenge."  This little jar of pencil erasers lives on my desk next to the jar of rubber bands, and a tiny jar of paper clips.

Red Pepper

This is my first painting in a couple of weeks.  The holidays can really do a number on your painting routine. We have had a wonderful holiday, though, surrounded by family and friends.  We are blessed. Red pepper and knife, oil on 6"x6" panel.

Little Owl no.2

This little guy is on a 4"x4" canvas that is 1 1/2" deep so it will sit by itself on a shelf.

Out On a Limb no.2

I've been trying to finish my Christmas shopping this week.  Each day the traffic and crowds get worse, and I get grouchier.  Hopefully, I can wrap it up tomorrow (pun intended).  Then I can stay at home, bake, wrap those gifts and enjoy the holiday.

I've had too much fun with little owls.  These are on a yellow background, oil on a 6"x 12" canvas.
