Watercolors






This is a "re-do" for my brother. He moved into a new office and needed a painting to match. The framing was already done and the surface was there, I just painted a new picture.

Bourbon Street










I painted this street scene for our prom this weekend. We are going to the Mardi Gras! The color scheme is crazy and outlandish, but students will enter a world of black and white only. Pictures will be posted real soon so you can get a better idea of how this painting will be used. The painting is actually done as 2 separate pieces on 2 4x8 foot sheets of plywood. Big job....feels great to be done! Thank you, Birdo for hanging these for us!

New Projects




I had so much fun photographing this pretty little white dress-


Photograph with dress worn by model ,Braylyn-



Birthday card for Braylyn's 3rd Birthday-



I even painted a picture of the dress. I used a painting knife and added some sparkles. It is on a 2" thick stretcher and around the edges, I wrote, "I hope you dance"!

LETTER PHOTO ART

I have been taking photos of things in the world that resemble the shapes of letters. I have tried many ways to make these work, having difficulty finding frames in the sizes needed, so I have made them into plaques instead of framed pieces with glass. This makes it easier as I can make the photos any size needed as well as making the plaques any size necessary for the length of the name. Most of these will set on a shelf, but hooks could be attached to allow them to be hung if that is more desirable. Do you see letters in your world???

Backdrops





Sandy at "Expressions by Sandy" hired me to paint a backdrop for her business. I was so pleased and honored when I saw model, Tara, using it for some of her Senior Picture shots!
Looking good Tara!
