Cooper Oil Sketch

"Cooper" 5 x 7 inches, Oil on Gessoboard, NFS

Painted for the Daily Paintwork's Furry Friend challenge. Let me introduce my doggie, Cooper. He splits his workday between keeping me company in the studio and being a couch potato, When his daddy gets home, he 's in his home office. At about 4:30 or so, he keeps my mom company in her studio apartment we made for her.

On Saturdays he continues with his life-long quest to kill my vacuum. He could be upstairs sound asleep and if I just put my hand on the vacuum, he's downstairs in a flash, barking all the way. For as long as I vacuum, he's there at the business end of the vacuum, barking, growling and yes biting. He's 8 1/2 years old and we are on our third vacuum.

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.
