MOMENT BY A LAKE

This moment happened at a State Park Lake. There is a campground and a picnic area. This lady and her son had just finished their picnic lunch and he was ready for a nap. Don't you just love it when a baby is drifting off to sleep. Beautiful sunny day with lots of puffy clouds. So glad you could stop here and take a look at my blog. For purchase info click HERE. SOLD

VINTAGE QUILT

Quilts are irresistable. I love to feel them and use a couple on my bed. It's fun to make pillows from the scraps. I find it fun to hunt for them is flea markets. This piece is painted in acrylic on a canvas panel and it is varnished to protect it from the elements. Ready to be framed and the size is 4"x6", which you can find every where.

"HOME SWEET HOME"

In a former home, I had a bathroom very similar to this. I found the old iron shelf brackets at a flea market. When my girls were small, I messed with crossstitch hence the framed piece on the wall. To purchase "Home Sweet Home" on ebay click here.

Garden Shed

This little patch of heaven is on the grounds of a private nursing home. I really liked the stone patio area. My father and brothers are stone masons, so I have a tendency to notice stonework. To purchase please click here

DELPHINIUMS

This lady is cutting delphiniums for a vase. I used my mom for the model. Mom is not that stout but the dress just seemed to grow fuller. She also has a bunch of hats for the garden work. Looks like a lovely job for anyone. To purchase "Delphiniums" on E-bay click here

"Carrying the Mail"

This is my all time favorite painting. So it is not for sale. But I wanted to share that day with everyone. I was using some photo's I took and all the details of this moment came back as I painted. That's the best reason to use your own photo'swhen you paint. My sweet grandbaby was so focused and intent on getting the mail to her great grandmother (Granny), it was almost funny. The day was warm and sunny. Our driveway is in deep shade so I waited for her to walk into the spots of sunshine. I love her so much. Happy Memories!

"Antique Urn with Bluebird"

Here is another piece from the same day of dogsitting for my sister. She also has yellow finches and Hummingbirds to visit her yard. She loves to garden so I have plenty of lovely flowers to paint . "Thanks Nancy!
