I am back.

Strawberry No.2, 4"x6" Oil on Linen Panel
SOLD

I know it's been a while. Life seems to take some time every now and then. This time, it was finding a home with a little bit of land, a few trees and a spot that I can call "my studio". For now I am seperated from my beloved paints and brushes by a few boxes that are being emptied when my day job done for the day. I do miss painting so much and can't wait to start, as the deer and turkey we see in our back yard have become so inspirational.

The smell of spring and those tiny signs of green tipped branches also give me the desire to capture them with paint. Today I discovered some wisteria and some beautiful red honeysuckle...oh how I love having plants.

I have placed a couple of paintings for sell on eBay. They are ones that I painted a while back, but next weekend I plan to paint away. Hopefully soon I will have new paintings to post. I am so thankful for you and your generous words of support. Please, do continue to visit and leave your some feedback--whatever your heart desires.

    Thank you, Ann. I am having a blast. I am one of those that lives awaiting for Spring. The energy of the sun and the possibilities of popping up from dried branches, along with all it's colors makes me absolutely happy. I wish you a very happy Spring.

Labor of Love

Sunflowers in Cobalt Blue Vase,   Oil on 5 "x7"   Linen Panel SOLD  Private Collection in San Saba, TX First, I must say that everything I paint is because I absolutely love. I don't like to paint things that I don't find to be attractive to me for one reason or another. Sometimes it's sentimental reasons and other times it's as simple as beautiful colors or the texture. Either way, it's something that I want to capture and stare at for long periods of time. I want to study it and how it affects the environment around it, as in the case of Sunflowers in Cobalt Blue Vase does. In that respect, I feel ALL my paintings are a labor of love.  More often than not, I have to create a painting, wipe it all down, and start all over again if something is just not working. Some never get completed and I just end up painting something totally different on that panel. Then there are some, that I just have to paint, no matter how much trouble they are giving

A bit more Flow Blue (or Flo Blue)

Pink Roses in Flow Blue,   Oil on 6 "x6"   Linen Panel SOLD Private Collection in  Langhorne, PA  School is about to start again and it seems when it does the Holidays are close by and time goes faster. I decided this week I would "make" things go a little slower to get myself to relax. I get a lot of inspiration from so many other blogs, for my home and for my art. So, I went to several blogs that I've loved for so long, but really got to stay for a while. It was absolutely indulging--I wish I could do that more often.  There are times when I "have to" paint a certain item and I search and search as it nags at me until I find it. That was the case with the snap dragons below. I was thrilled to find them after most of June and July searching for them. I think they are perfect with the pink carnations. Although I am also working on a painting that is just the snap dragons. I did have to go a bit bigger than my usual paintings on this one in orde
