Patches the Horse, love this video

Any Ideas?

I'd like to add other artists, short videos... onto my blog.
Does anybody have suggestions, music, art, movies, books
I could write about? My preference is writng about living people.

prints on Imagekind

Recently I opened another store at Imagekind.
Several of my images are for sale as prints.

Brothers film cancelled

Because of the nasty weather Brothers
film will not be showing today in Oshkosh.
While I type this I'm listening to the sleet
bounce off the roof, ruining the lovely snow!

Cell phone tricks

A few days ago the keys were locked in my car.
We tried to open the door
using my cell and another cell phone,
where the exta keys were located.
The person on the other end pushed the remote
on my extra set, while I held the phone near the car.
Oh-well, it didn't work,
so I resorted to calling a locksmith.
Has anyone out there tried it and had it work for them?

Brothers premiere, more snow

Tomorrow is the premiere for Brothers
at the Grand Opera House in Oshkosh,
can't wait to see the film.

A big snowstorm is on its way again.
Yes, I love snow and skiing and walking in the snow,
the shoveling and driving I don't like.
This morning I'm going skiing,
the sun is out and it's 12 so far.

The Castle, 9x12

This fresh new painting
I painted for fun. I love old buildings
and the romantic tales of King Arthur.
Recently I've been painting abstract
for an upcoming competition.
I'll add one or two next week.

Guild Sourcebook and More Winter Weather

Yesterday and today I went skiing in the country
with a client/friend. We brought her black poodle.
Her dog Joe found some fresh rabbit parts
and had fun chewing and tossing them around!
It was so much fun and more snow is on the way,
what a lovely winter, aside from the below zero temperatures, ha.

The Guild Sourcebook of Residential Art 6 was recently published.
I'm on page 198. They also sent me hundreds of tear sheets.
Three of my red barns are in this handsome book.

Inner Sun Yoga Studio website

This pen and ink drawing I drew last year
for Inner Sun Yoga Studio in Oshkosh.
The figure is Deb the owner.
She is using it on her website
and will use it for upcoming
post cards and ads in the local newspaper.

New Studio

Here are 2 photos I took today at my new studio.
It's a very old charming building with great lighting

Spring & Summer

New Etsy paintings.
What am I thinking, there's a fierce snow storm outside.

Raining Hearts

Another painting added to my Etsy shop tonight. This square 8x8 painting is very feminine with juicy colors.

Loving You Forever

A new painting on Etsy, 5x7. The tree is a symbol of the passion and bond of the 2 hearts.

All of Me

The last few days I didn't get much painting done. I did finish this little guy today and also added him to my Etsy shop. He is sweet for someone in the house and is going to express his affection on Valentine's Day

Way Below Zero

Currently I'm working on several paintings and will open a new shop on another site this month. With that in mind I went to my studio space to work today, a lovely, but very empty big old house in Green Bay. It was so cold -zero outside and drafty inside! So I didn't get much done freezing my butt off and listening to what must have been the heater going, but sounded more like monsters, yea it was loud. To ease my mind I checked out the upstairs. Where was all of that noise and what was it? All I could guess were overworked pipes, that's what I want to believe, ha,ha. I wasn't curios enough to go to the attic (I could't get the door open for one thing,ha ha) or the basement.

Tomorrow's another day to paint and wear more layers. More paintings will be posted next week.
