Back to Reality

Today is the 4th of July where we celebrate our nation's freedom from England.  The weather is perfect outside and I'm inside.  I don't have a good excuse but the excuse for today is the same since the middle of May:  The Casey Anthony Trial.

As this trial was wrapping up, I wondered how I would flip back to my "normal" routine.  I haven't made any new paintings in over two weeks.  Yesterday, I starting sketching again.  I love to sketch my Mini-Schnauzer, Cooper and today came a few more entries.

As today has unfolded, I feel ready to get back to my routine, to my studio to make art.  In the meantime, I offer another sketch of Cooper.

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.

Otter Mug Shot No. 6

Otter Mug Shot No. 6, 5 x 5 inches, Oil on Gessoboard Buy with Paypal  $ 60. The last day of 2014 finds me in the studio being inspired to paint another River Otter.  Just love these adorable playful creatures.  This otter and artist wish all a very safe and happy New Year's eve celebration.  I have my wonderful granddaughter visiting and soon we'll be hitting the market to load up a cart full of junk food.
