I am still here...

Well what can I say about my absence...something happens in the winter, I think it is the lighting...I just do not paint as much.  Having said that I am working on one now...here it is

 

So first I painted the row boat and water....and it sat and sat.

 

Then I painted the dog...my first guy was not in proportion and he was too small for the boat (and I really liked him)

So here is the second dog...and yes he really is that sad in the photo (I had to ask my husband and he confirmed it)

 

There is still a lot to do...just wanted you to know I was still around !

 

Have a blessed day

10 x 10 Real Art Party

I just finished a piece for a local art sale...it had to be a 10 x 10.  It was the same lighthouse I painted earlier...

 

I had a lot of trouble getting a picture with the glass because of the reflection.  It will be at the Berkshire Museum (Pittsfield, MA) on February 23. You need to get a ticket in advance because everyone that attends goes home with a piece of art. If you are around the Pittsfield area this is a wonderful fundraiser and you won't leave empty handed. Tickets go on sale in February...here is the link RAP party at the Berkshire Museum

 

Have a Blessed day !

Just feeling winter blahs...

Last winter I did not paint much... but I was going through my cancer treatment and thought that was why. 

Well here we are and once again I find myself painting less -I think it is my winter blahs !

I am still working on the light house...it actually just needs the details (shading and shadows) to be completed. I plan on finishing it this week...not sure what I am going to paint next.

Until then here is my painting of a "swan stroller" !

 

 

Have a blessed day !

Happy New Year !

Well on a personal  note I was glad to see 2016 go. I went through cancer treatment last winter, but can say things look good and had a wonderful summer renovating our camp in Grand Isle, VT.

I was at a store the other day and they had their outdoor cushions out already-wouldn't it be nice to jump right to spring/summer without going through the winter cold and snow ?? Sorry skiers !


Working on a painting -a lighthouse that is on Lake Champlain...one snow picture a winter is enough for me...

 

Have a blessed day

Merry Christmas to All

The chicken is in the crock pot as we wait for out children and their little ones to descend upon the house. It is that wonderful chaos...which I try to keep orderly !

Have a Merry Christmas and I pray for blessings for all of you !


Have a wonderful holiday !
