a friend of mine

sold

My husband said I have been on a cow painting jag. Sorry if you do not like cows.  I am weak.  Their sweet faces call out to me.  This one is painted on a 15 x 30 x 2" canvas.

I am preparing for the Bluff Park Art Show this Saturday in Birmingham.

Really big cow


This is painted on a 3 x 5 ft canvas.  I am terrible at photographing large paintings so my son Clint gave me a little assistance. It also gives you a little perspective of the size of the painting because he is right under 6' tall. I did not accessorize my front porch to go with the painting but it does.

color my world


If you around my age( I will be 55 next week) you probably had "color my world" by the band Chicago as your prom theme song.  I turned on music as I sat down to write this and it was the first song to play and provided a nice title for this painting. It may be my least favorite song by Chicago.

This is painted on a 30 x 40 x 2" linen canvas.  I have a client who would like a background similar to this so this was a warm up/try out. I like it.sold

Does anybody really know what time it is?

The band Chicago gave me a great title for my latest cow painting.  Things cows think about #1.

Happy to be home from my latest show with a lot fewer paintings.  I hope the new owners are enjoying them as much as I did painting them.  One thing I hear a lot from folks at shows is that my booth makes them smile.  Could you ever ask for a nicer compliment?  We all need more things to smile about. This is painted on a 36 x 36 x 2" canvas.sold

My next shows are as follows:

Monte Sano Art Festival  Sept 17 and 18  Huntsville, AL

Bluff Park Art Show Oct 1   Birmingham, AL

Telfair Art festival Nov 11-13  Savannah, GA

big mad cow

sold
This is a commissioned piece for a new patron from Michigan.  She saw a painting I did a couple of years back titled "mad cow".  The painting was sold and small and she needed a bigger one.  I painted this 24 x 24 x 2" for her.  Every state needs a little bit of Alabama color in it.

I am participating in Art in the Park in Marietta, Georgia this Saturday- Monday.  The hours are 10 -5 each day.  Come see me if you are in the area.

Hope you have a fun and restful Labor day weekend!
