Patina Farm's Chicken

This painting was done last year after I saw this picture of the cutest chicken with vintage watering cans.

 This picture was taken at Patina Farm owned by Brooke and Steve Giannetti. 

Velvet and Linen is the name of the blog-beautiful photos and a lovely farm. Definitely worth checking out !








Have a blessed day !

I started painting the alphabet when my sister wanted letters of her grandchildren.  I have completed most of the alphabet and will start putting them on the blog, in case you would like to purchase them.

The prints are $10.00 a piece (plus shipping) You can email me if you are interested and we can make arrangements.  My Etsy shop will be back soon.

So here we go with the first three letters...





 All the alphabet paintings are painted on 8 x 10 canvases...except the C above -which is an 11 x 14.


Still working on my photography...

Have a blessed day !

Being retired means you have time to take a Brillo and get all the burnt gunk off of your 35 year old Visions pot ! 

Well that's how I started my day...after my doctors apt for a check on the tumor I had radiated and "chemoed " out of me last winter...glad to say it is nothing but a scar !

I wanted to start getting my pictures on the blog...all pictures are $45.00 for the original, I have prints of some and they are $10.00

This is a good one for this time of year-my daughter's cat Kip was sitting up by some pumpkins when she snapped the picture (of course he was on the island where he is not suppose to be ).
 

Let me know if you are interested and we can make arrangements. I am in the process of revamping my Etsy store.


Have a blessed day
Chris

A New Beginging

This is the third time I have started a blog...but now that I am retired I have more time on my hands...so let's see how this goes. 


I spend every morning with a cup of coffee and read blogs...where would I be without them ? I have gotten to know the bloggers like they were friends...morning coffee friends !

I stared painting in earnest over a year ago, but have dabbled in
  • painting
  • felting
  • knitting
  • polymer clay
  • PMC
  • Mosaics
  • and more
 
So...even though my love is interior design blogs...this blog is for my paintings (and random thoughts).




It started with this painting


And I have not stopped since !

Have a blessed day
Chris
