The Clock

This is at the "Harvest to Home Market" in their entertainment room. Gail purchased a clock ( in the center) but she thought it was too small for the wall she wanted to hang it on, so I painted around it! I think it looks very cool. I love clocks and I happen to have a few around our house. Which one shall I paint around.......hmmmm.

Luxx Hair Salon

These are painted at Luxx Hair Salon in Lloydminster, near the south Tim's.  It was tricky getting the facial proportions correct.  In fact, the first version looked like Sarah Jessica Parker, eyes too close together and long nose and face.  I like this version much better .

The writing is definitely on the wall.

Paint, Paint, Paint...paint!

I have been working on this BIG project for a long time.  It's in Ulmer Chevrolet's showroom in Lloydminster.  It consists of a mural painted directly on the walls, then 6 large canvases painted and hung ontop of the mural.  The clocks signify luxury, time ( as a reference to the vintage automobiles) and it's time to buy a new car.  Also, I love clocks. I learned a lot about cars, too.

"The Door"

This framed acrylic on canvas painting is 36 x 24 inches. My husbands family have a farm that is over 100 years old. The old house is still standing, although the kitchen has fallen into the cistern. This is one of the doors, without a knob. I had a hard time photographing this painting without a glare.

This painting is available at the "Harvest to Home Market" in Lloydminster.
If you haven't been there, you need to go.

I wish inspiration would come in time to go to bed at a descent hour!  I finished this painting at 2:00 a.m. but I was all fired up and couldn't go to sleep.  This is one of four paintings that will hang in the "Harvest to Home Market" in their entertainment room.  They are all for sale, too!  http://www.harvesttohomemarket.ca/
