A bit of holiday cheer


A photo from my xmas tree

Something different...


I found this chair on the sidewalk, only where ever you see fabric used to be decaying black vinyl. I'm pretty happy with it - it gave me an excuse to buy a staple gun :).

blimp!

Third attempt at posting a half decent photo of this painting... I really need to get someone else to do the taking pictures of my pictures part...

Herbert Found A House on a Hill

Herbert found a house on a hill.
The sun was setting, and he was getting a bit chilly.

So he climbed up the hill (which was a very big hill for such a little owl)
and knocked on the door.



It slowly creaked open and three ghosty faces appeared.

At first Herbert was a bit frightened, as he'd never met ghosts before,
but the littlest ghost told a funny joke and then invited Herbert in for some tea.


Our shivering little friend accepted, a little bit nervously. But after many cups of tea, a couple cookies, and many laughs, Herbert felt at home.

And after the rest of the world was tucked in bed, the spooky group went out for a bit. I would say walk, but we all know ghosts don't walk!

And much much later, when the sun started to peak up from under the sea, Herbert was nestled into a cozy bed, for some much needed sleep.

Herbert's First Kiss

Lulu had little Herbert right where she wanted him...

But then came a sneeze, and off he went.

A little city


I started this while waking up on a friend's couch this morning. I think it may have been in one of my dreams.

Finished!


Hooray for giant magnolias! If you're curious about the process on this, just scroll down a touch to see the different phases.

painting for mom... in progress

And I think I'm done! (7.29) ~note added a couple hours later: ok, so I wasn't really done. I put the final one in its own post.



I've been a busy little bee - this is what I've managed to get done since 7.22 (today is 7.28)






I seem to have a lot of stuff that's "in progress"... including this watercolor for my mom, which is about 25" x 39" (big for me)... (pic below from July 22)

Landscape in progress...


Something a little different for me. I'm guessing this is about 40% done.

A little something


I thought I'd post this little digital sketch I did... It's so easy to get lost. It's good to be found.

He's an octopus (really, he is!)

And below is a cowfish.

Art of the body



Something a little different - these came from scans that I did of a friend's MRI... It's of his spine.
Weird, I know.
