New Haircut

Here I am a few days ago with a new haircut. For years I've had long hair. In August, September and October several new projects will be published and hopefully a new website.

Outlaw's Progress

This is a recent painting I did for the cover of an erotic book called Outlaws Progress.
So far we don't know when it will be published. It is an acrylic painting
in black and white.

How to write on a blog.

Someone pointed out to me she doesn't know how to write on a blog. You click below the image on comments, it's pink or blue. That takes you to where you write a comment. You do not have to be a member, which is how it usually is on the blogs. From what I've seen anyway.

The Devil Inside

He is the critic, filling the head with self-doubt, regrets, fears, and overall destructive thoughts. Good-luck pulling him out.

There's a lot of Fish in the Sea

This was painted while thinking of a book by Dr. Suess. It's also a useful expression

Rising Water in a Sinking Boat

How do you know when to give up on something, and at what cost?

Head to Foot

Or keeping the foot out of the mouth, before it's too late.

My e-mail address

My e-mail address is ssolie@athenet.net. The link was not working, so I took it off. The link went to another e-email, which I'm not able to access?

Diversity in Wisconsin

This is an unpublished painting created for a newspaper article. Later this week when I have more energy 3 or 4 recent paintings will be added.

I'm back, more art work coming soon, this week or next.

Recently, I've been going through things I haven't looked at in a long time, along with it getting rid of several boxes of stuff. Like a lot of Americans I have too much stuff and not enough money. ha. In a couple of months, when it's cooler I'll be moving to another city.

There are a few projects I've been working on this summer. A couple of illustrations will be coming out in August, a cover for a literary book this fall, a poster for a film, more paintings...So far there are a couple of projects planned for the winter too.

Next week-end I'm going to be working at an art fair in Madison and visiting with some friends. It will be a lot of fun. One of the perks working there is free food coupons. A gal's got to have fun, guy's too.

New Barns and a Church

This month I painted several new paintings. Aside from the barns, I painted some country and small town churches.
