The Latest From My Easel

Check out the latest few paintings I've done and let me know what you think! Crazy mixture but someone wanted a Sundrop, someone wanted a dancer for a child's room and then I was inspired by a painting I saw in a window a few years ago and found out it's by a Russian artist. I have wanted to try a different style and it turned out sort of interesting. If anyone is interested in any of these or something similar give me a call. 256-497-3838.

Davis Family

Here's an oil paintin that I finished recently as a wedding gift. 36" x 36" oil on canvas.

Easter Sunday

I decided to try painting Jesus today. Couldn't let Carole & Claire post theirs without seeing what would happen if I tried. He developed on the canvas as I watched. I'm so thankful that HE LIVES!

Yea! My client came to pick up her portrait and was very pleased. I'm so happy that she liked it! This is an oil portrait on 20" x 24" canvas. I've worked on it on and off for about 6 months. I hope it's one that she will treasure. I feel that I did capture the sweet spirit of these two young boys. They were a delight to photograph...so full of energy but so well mannered.
Looking forward to my next portrait challenge! (Below you can see the photograph that I painted from.)

Rooster Swirl

I just painted my kitchen red and needed something to hang over my stove. Here's my first shot. I called it "Rooster Swirl" and it's acrylic on 16" x 20" stretched canvas.

I like it but also have another idea in mind.....later.

What do you think?

My Thanksgiving 2008

A snippit of my Thanksgiving memories for those who are interested

Lilly

How 'bout this sweet little black cap capuchan monkey?  I pulled an old photo I snapped of her this morning and decided to paint her.  Her name is Lilly and she belongs to a friend.  I also wanted to paint the beautiful fall leaves so this is a combination of the two.  The scene is out my back door.  Let me know what you think!  This is acrylic on 18" x 18" stretched canvas.  The original as well as prints are available for purchase.  Contact me for details.  I'll post the portrait of the Hudson boys when the owners have seen it.  I'm finally done with that one!! Yea!
