Linear Love

"Linear Love" 4 x 4 inches, Oil on Board -Sold

This is my entry for the Nibblefest art contest (NFAC) with the June theme being all in a row.  I was stumped on this one, although there are great examples HERE

After giving this some thought, two little piggies were on my heart to paint.  I added some sky holes is the back...kinda in a row to reinforce the theme.  All Nibblefest paintings start at just 99 cents on ebay!  I'll post the link for this one on the 20th of June.

The Rare Snowman

The Rare Snowman, 4 x 4 inches, Oil on Panel Sold - Thank you! It's a warmer day today and the one snowman in the neighborhood is not faring well.  In addition to melting he's got a problem with one of his twig arms.  I take Cooper & Cookie for short walks several times a day and when I saw what was happening to this guy, I knew I had to make a painting of him.   While returning home, I pondered  how many snowmen are not created because of video games.  I know that I don't see them much at all.
