HAPPY EASTER

Hey Friends,  Are you having a great Easter Sunday in spite of the clouds?

Spring is here so the spirit is with me, clouds or not.

Hey Friends,

Reminding you to come to 2nd Helpings Gallery on April 9th for the reception of  the Double Line Painters exhibit called "All Critters-Great and Small".  Reception is 1 -- 3.  But the show hangs from April 1 thru 28.

Do hope you will stop in and chat with me a bit, you won't be disappointed with the variety of critters and medias.

Thanks for passing this invite on to your friends and family.

Happy Trails

Original Paintings

Hey Friends, Cows! Now I know why I see so many paintings of cows. They are so easy and quick to paint! I mentioned in a post that I was shoveling snow and then painting for an hour or so, alternating the activity, trying not to hurt the old back. So I ended up painting 7 cows! They are 8"x8" so you know they came along pretty fast anyway.

I put 3 on this post so you could see how I tighten up as time goes by. The green one should have been the last one. Notice the first cow is pretty loose. The red one is fairly loose but the green one is pretty tight! Why do I do that? Don't have a clue. But it is something I need to pay attention to.

I also painted about 4 of birds, 3 of cats, a couple landscapes, and 3 Wabbits! I do love to paint! Now I must varnish and put on the backings and hangers.

This evening Gallery 108 (downtown Roanoke) is hosting a little party so the new members and original members can meet. I know this will be a good time. I'll post photos later.

Happy Trails.
