ORIGINAL SMALL PAINTING WALKING FAT DOG

 

Hey Friends,  This painting I decided needed a funny title.  So I'm calling it :WALK, Fat Dog".

A man on the greenway exercising himself and his dog decided to walk along for protection.

 Today I also changed my artwork at 2nd Helpings Gallery on Williamson Rd. in Roanoke, Va.  I took in 6 new pieces.

The one immediately under my name to the left, is from the Southport-Calabash area of N.C.  The one under it is from PaintBank, Va.  The top on the right side is also from PaintBank.  The long one on the bottom right is a composite of sorts.

 

These two smaller pieces are views from Goose Creek in Bedford and a tree on Mill Mountain,.

 here in SW Va. Blue Ridge.

 

All looks good there now.

CHECKING THE HERD - ORIGINAL SMALL PAINTING OF HORSE AND RIDER

 

Hey Friends,  Hope everyone is still fairing well in this deep freeze.  Won't be much longer 'til spring !

 

The painting above was developed from several different photos.  You know how hard it is to get models to do exactly what you want.  The dog spent most of his energy chasing the cows.  And the human rarely sat up straight !  We artists know how to overcome all obstacles.  LOL.

 

It's available in ETSY.

 

Hopefully I will learn how to use PICMONKEY soon and have some collages to show you.

Walking Max

 

Hey Friends,  Some new work.  I took photos a few months ago of my niece and gran babe walking MAX all around the yard.  The sun was going down and glowing through this large bush.  I think it was called "Broom".  Very pretty but a little difficult to capture in paint.  It is on Ebay HERE.

 

Here is another from our trip to Douthat State Park.  This was actually a full sized road but I like it better as a path.  Really enjoyed that park.

Click HERE for Ebay.

 

I'm working on a commission and keep forgetting to get some progress photos .  But I've got my camera in hand now.  So back out to the studio I go.

Judy's Garden - Two Views

 

Hey Friends,  A couple more added to the Ebay auctions.  CLICK HERE for more info.  Both are 9"x 12" acrylic on canvas panels and varnished.  Painted from photos taken at a friends garden last summer.

 

She does one heck of a great job with her landscape.  She evens grows berries and vegetables.  She has a dog named Daisy that enjoys helping with the chores and showing guests around the gardens.  I saw my first Red-Winged Blackbirds in her gardens.  Beautiful.

We had one member of our painting group, the Double Line Painters of the Blue Ridge, dress up with a hat and aprons and a water bucket for this photo shoot.  It was a great day.

"D" is for Dachshund

Hey friends,  Do ya think I could get any slower? !  Everytime I'm amazed how long it's been since my last post.  I really don't see how other artists do a post everyday........Every day mind you !!

"D" could have been DOG but these little weiner dogs are so cute, couldn't resist.  I've always wanted one, and I'll have one before long.
Anyway, this dog is in my Etsy shop.  I'll send along a little info about 3 shows I'm participating in very soon.  In fact they ALL  happen next weekend, the 1st and 2nd of June !!  Whew what a job - Will I be ready ?
