Retro Daisies No. 1

"Retro Daisies" 4 x 4 inches, Oil on Gesso board

Buy on Etsy

Sometimes you just need to paint daisies.

I was a teenager in the later part of the 1960s. It was a fun time to be young. Not like the times we live in now. My generation was the grovin', flower child, all you need is love generation. We had the 5th Dimension singing "Aquarius", The Association singing "Cherish". We had short skirts and long hair and I was sent to the Principal's office for laughing loudly in the bathroom.

I painted these and two other Retro Daisy paintings because I often miss the 60's. Yesterday, I really missed the 60's and I'm sorry, so sorry that Airplanes can be shot down from the heavens.

Cardinal Conclave

ACEO, 2.5 x 3.5 inches Watercolor, $ 18. Buy with Paypal As of this posting the Roman Catholic Cardinals are still in conclave to discover the next pope. I'm not Roman Catholic but I do have a wonderment about the this process because it's so entwined in mystery. This little watercolor Cardinal was at my bird feeder where he grabbed a sunflower seed and quickly flew to a tree limb to perch and enjoy. After which he waits his turn to return.

Little Dee, No.1

Little Dee, No. 1 - Oil on Canvas, 2 x 2 inches with Easel $20. Buy with Paypal This is an experiment to force myself to say more with less. Painting with less brushwork because I have to! Also, I don't paint on canvas, so I have to get use to that. But I am having fun.
