"Bauer"

The Bernese Mountain Dog

12x12

acrylic on canvas

 

He is just a beautiful dog.  I had the pleasure of meeting his owner, Donnica, at a Women's conference and retreat.  She owns one of my angel wings paintings in memory of her dad, and now she's  looking forward to hanging Bauer's portrait.

Thank you so much, Donnica!!

 

After I finished this painting last night, I couldn't wait to start on my latest.  It's not really a pet, but it is an animal.

Day 11.  This has been such a busy art week.  I had a tradeshow, taught a painting afternoon at my grandson's Kindergarten, finished a large custom angel wings painting, a not as large custom angel wings painting, 6 pet portraits, last night I painted live at the Little Italy Gala in support of the Lloydminster Sexual assault centre, and donated a custom painting for the live auction.... the winning bid was $900 ( I was thrilled) we danced til the wee hours,  and tonight I am teaching a small group of ladies an angel wings class.  Whew!!

Next week, I just plan to teach one class and paint for my 30in30.

"Deuce"

10x10

acrylic on canvas

 

Rolanda sent me a couple photos of their Schnauzer, Deuce.  Some where he was freshly groomed, but I loved the picture of him when his hair was a little longer.  I started with a teal background, then decided to make it dark...and I'm happy with the way it turned out.

I've known Rolanda her whole life, and I am honored to create another painting for her Art Collection.

 

Red Poppies

Red Poppies

8 x 10

50.00

I love the way this painting turned out.  I started it ages ago, then got stuck.

So, I finally felt the urge, the surge of fun and creativity that makes me

excited to paint.  That is one of the best feelings in the world!!

It makes me happy!

I am so looking forward to the poppies blooming this summer.
