Shooting Stars

This is titled "Shooting Stars", my son Hayden, loves to sketch and he is always handing me drawings
to paint. This is one similar to what he did.  I don't have many small paintings, but I am trying to do more.  This is a 10" x 16".  it is painted on cradled board and I left a nice border of the natural wood as a frame, then varnished the whole piece.

Many Walks

When I started this painting I had previously only done one human face and I must be honest, I am intimidated by the human figure.  I challenged myself to do as many imaginary profile faces (I like to over and under exaggerate their features) that I could fit onto a canvas.  It was fun to come up with all of the ideas, and truthfully some of them remind me of people that I know.  We are a world full of many different looking people, that's why this is titled, "Many Walks" which is a 16" X 40".  The lower pic is a close up for more detail.  (someday I am going to learn how to use the new camera my husband bought me and my photo's will hopefully be of a clearer, better quality)

Tryptic Ribbon

This painting, titled "Tryptic Ribbon" was the first painting that I did using 3 canvas' that are hung in a row with a spacing of 1 inch or so.  When hung on the wall it was approx. 50" x 40". I enjoyed doing this black, white and gray piece with the  single circle of color in each panel.  I have thought of doing a similar painting or maybe a smaller series, who knows.  It just all comes down to what inspires me when I walk into my studio.  I have included a close up picture for you to see just how small my dots can get....
SOLD

A Bugs Perspective

 

This is a 48" X 48".  I imagined that I was a tiny little bug in the grass looking up at the sky.  I see the sun glowing and there are dandy lion puff seeds floating around (the silver leaf circles) and it is a beautiful clear day and there are blades of grass all around me.  SOLD

 

Waterfall Jumper

This is a fish jumping a waterfall, the body is blue, eye is red, and fins are green.  There is colorful wavy water cascading down and in between each color I have done silver leaf in wavy strips.  It is a 48" X 60".  The close up was taken from an angle looking up at the piece hanging on the wall.  The pearly white dots represent water bubbles. 

Queen for a Day

This lovely lady is dreaming of being a "Queen for a day".   Don't we all wish for our day of pampering and indulgence.  This was my first attempt at doing a human figure (or face) and I wanted to go over the top.  On two sides, (spine) of the canvas in cursive I wrote.     If I'm Dreaming   Don't wake me up

This is acrylic on canvas with silverleaf crown
