Sunflowers In Autumn

 I can't believe I didn't take a photo of the last sunflower commission I created, but this time I made sure I got some pictures. This piece was commissioned because of the last one. It's already hanging in it's new home.

I love the vibrant colors, and wish I had been able to get better photos. I took these at the Tooele Chamber of Commerce office where two of my pieces are now hanging. The new owner of this painting and I met there as we are members of the Stansbury Art & Literary Society and the Chamber is letting us display our art there. It's a great opportunity! So this is my Monday share. I am hoping to be on here more often, but as soon as I commit to that life always runs away with my time. I hope you have a good week!

Primitive Victorian Driftwood Santa #2 2013 A Long Awaited Finishing

He has waited for a couple of years to be finished. Sometimes, it's a matter of patience.

Primitive Victorian Driftwood Santa #1 2013

I've had this piece of driftwood from Alaska for years. I had originally hand painted him with simple details, but he was whispering in his good Father Christmas voice that he wanted a bit more. So I got out the clay and added features, along with a homespun sash and wreath. You can find him on ebay now. Mother's Dream Artworks

Blue Or Brown, What color are Santa's eyes? A Victorian Santa...

When I sit down to create a Santa I run into what color to paint his eyes sometimes. So I ask, what color are Santa's eyes? Does it really matter?
I painted Santa's eyes blue this time, but who knows, the next one may have brown....

Oh, the title? Do you remember the children's story, An American Tail, where Madeline Khan is the voice of one of the mice?

Owl Be Seeing You.......

 No pun intended..... well, okay, maybe just a little. A fun and funky abstract owl, I think I will take this one to school and share with my students.

Perhaps it will inspire them to try new things. Some are amazingly artistic already, and others have untapped potential. It's fun getting to know their styles.
