"Florida Blue"
I don't usually fall in love right away with my paintings. It usually takes a while.
But this one takes the cake.
I have a lot of detail to accomplish in this painting before I am finished with it but
I sure do love it already.
I hope you enjoy it half as much as I do.
Enjoy!

"Florida Cracker"
Hi everyone!
This blog is about a very special painting.
As some of you know, I had the opportunity to spend a little time
in the Tallahassee area in May of 2011.
While I was driving around in the town where our brother Joey lived,
I came upon a little shack of a cottage in the woods.
It is located right there on main street where you get off of Interstate 10
going into Joey's little town of Loyd, Florida.
For some reason I was completely taken with this little falling down shack.
I went back to it three times in two trips to Tallahassee
and took photos each time.
I suppose it was my way of having a little piece of my brother Joey
without having to go back to his house again.
without having to go back to his house again.
I did go to Joey's house once during that visit to Tallahassee.
After Betti and Tim asked me to go back again and try to find our
sister n law, I found it too painful for me to return.
So instead I drove around looking for very old houses to photograph.

And of course to find a few more memories of some of my times
spent with Joey in Lloyd before he died.

This one really struck me. Like I said, I went back three times

Well . . .Some of you know that I currently spend a great deal
of my time painting pictures.
of my time painting pictures.
This little shack was a Must to paint and because it took me a very long time to complete I am so ancious and proud, I could go no longer without sharing my story with all of you.
I have received so much personal enjoyment in painting this shack.
I hope that you all can enjoy it a little as well.
To me it will always be this little shack I stumbled across while looking for memories of my time spent with my brother Joey.
Enjoy!!!
Contender in the "Art by the Sea" show in January 2013
Three trips and wonderful photos
It's me.
As it stands in real life.
Look very close in the painting and you will see the bottle.
I couldn't help it. I had to take it.
There was no evidence of the house ever having had indoor plumbing or electric of any kind
and the wall paper was hanging everywhere. The floors were rotted out. On my second trip back I took the wine bottle out of the window and have it in my kitchen window. Still unwashed on the inside.
I had removed another really cool piece of wall paper with palm trees on it but walked off without it.
Enjoy!!!!!!!!

On the easel
I'm working on it.
It shouldn't be too long now. A little more
blending. A little more tweeking.
It's going to be so pretty even if I do say so myself. All of you know that
I like show and tell. I had a girlfriend tell me once theat if I hit myself on the back any harder
I will knock myself over.
Well here it is

"Catching Up"
Finally!!!!!!!
Do to family illness this is my first post since October 2011.
So glad to be back!!!
It looks like I might be catching up and getting a bit of my painting
back on track.
I try hard to do "first things first"
It's exciting starting a new painting so it's really difficult
to stick to the "first things first" philosophy.
Remember the beautiful tiny little girl I started painting a while back? Elana.
She and her three brothers, Christian Carson and Price
would have been finished already but it took at least three months
would have been finished already but it took at least three months
to finish the Christmas Mural. Not complaining mind you. And other things.
The six 2" x 2" canvases are soon to be finished paintings I'm doing for a donation.
and the photo of the beautiful young women is my latest commission.
I'm so excited to be back painting again.
Enjoy! and watch do for my
next post.

"The Night before Christmas" at Santa's House
I had a girlfriend tell me once that if I patted myself on the back any harder
that I was going to knock myself over. LOL LOL!!!!
But I love this painting.
It meant so much for me to be able to work with the wonderful artist
from my Sebastian River Art Club.
Thelma Koopman, Ann Emery, Ann Warwick, Judy Burgarella,
Virginia and Leo Holm, Kathy and Guido Costa,
Susie Lavender, Betty Sullivan, Jeanie Dunphey and Norwood Stanhope
