Bennie's Babies Update & Other New Ones

Been painting up a storm over here! The sweet little flower painting is from some mums I snatched from my neighbors yard. My sister in-law, Lissa, came down last Friday and we painted these flowers. We started out to do a horse and ended up with flowers. Lissa said the horse would have been easier! We had a great time together!
I had just finished the pumpkin painting (2nd below) when she came and we went up to the Club House for lunch and dropped the pumpkin painting off at Kathleen's Corner where some of my paintings are on display. Note the "Ball" jars. I just had to throw that in since I'm from the "Ball" family. My mother's last name was Ball. Drop by and see my window and have your hair done by Alisha or some of the other girls and let me know which painting you like.
I think I've finally finished Bennie's Babies. The mouth of the little one is still a bit off but I think I can fix that pretty easily. Which one do you like the best of these three? Happy Halloween!!

Bennie's Babies

Here's the photo (below) and the painting above. This is oil on 24 x 30 canvas to go over Bennie's fireplace. Can't wait to see it framed. Thanks to Melissa Bridges for the photography. Beautiful girls! They have a beautiful grandma too!
Later!

Latest Portrait - Elizabeth

Here's pretty little Elizabeth that I just finished. I took the sunflowers from another photo and added the fence as a backdrop. She was such a joy to paint. I learn more each time I paint a portrait. I truly learned my lesson this time about measuring prior to starting and sketching to assure that the eyes, nose, mouth are in the right spot. I've started a new portrait of two little girls and I'll post those soon. Please sign up to be notified of my posts and I'd love to hear your comments!

Thank God Dreams Survive

In honor of the 40th anniversary of the moon landing I'm posting our song "Thank God Dreams Survive" on our website and hope that you'll go out and listen and honor those who've dedicated their lives to the space program. NASA is a positive force in an otherwise mixed up world. I'm proud of all we've done and continue to do that helps mankind the world over. Join us tomorrow at the U. S. Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville for our moon landing celebration. My band "The Valley Cats" will be performing from 1:00 to 5:oo. I'm very proud to be a NASA Girl!

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.

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!
