oil on masonite 8x8" NFS
This is a portrait I'm working on for a good friend of mine. It's a surprise for someone else so I have not met this little guy. However, after staring into his face all day I feel like I know him. He has the softest look about him. If he were a person I'd say he had an old soul.

"Not Another Time Out!" oil on masonite 6x6" SOLD
Okay! I admit it. I'm a sucker for black, white and tan dogs. Look at those "eyebrows"! This pup is so beautiful. My guess is, like Ollie the cat, you will be seeing more of him.
I recently self published a compilation of my paintings. Ross (husband) wants me to do another of my cat and dog paintings. He thinks it would be a fun coffee table book. Opinions?

"Red Flag" oil on masonite 8x10" November Challenge
This was my contribution to the November challenge. You have no idea how hard it was to stop painting on a piece that begged for more. I'm not unhappy with the final piece but would have loved to push it further. Who knows! more painting may have destroyed it. I've been known to go off the edge of the cliff on occasion. Nothing like having to scrape off hours of work because you didn't know when to stop.

"Can You See Me Now?" oil on masonite 6x6"
Shhhhhhhhhhh! don't tell but this cat does not belong to me. My Ollie would be most offended if he knew someone else had a stars role today.
I actually did 2 paintings today. The other one is part of a painting challenge group I have joined. Each month is a new "challenge" picked by one of the members. This month it was to set a timer for 30 minutes and when it rings PUT YOUR PAINT BRUSH DOWN! Well let me tell you! that was the fastest 30 minutes I ever spent.The group doesn't post until the 15th so you'll just have to wait to see

"Sarah and Chucks" oil on masonite NFS
I "met" this delightfully, funny, smart woman on Facebook. Her name is Sarah and she has a passion for art and "Chucks". Don't know what they are? I didn't either. Not a term I had heard used for Converse tennis shoes in the Northwest. These are what I suspect are just a couple of her stash. She had a birthday recently and I think it's only fitting that she have this painting.

"Going Green" oil on masonite 6x6" SOLD
This is my little grand dog Otis. My son has a pool and Otis LOVES to accidentally lose his floating green ball on a regular basis. He's an adorable little Blue Healer. I think he may be 12 this year. His age only shows when its convenient for him. Out of no where he will burst into a flurry of puppy play then the next moment he's hobbling off to nap.

"The Wait" oil on masonite 12x12" SOLD
Finally! I've been waiting for my new camera to post this painting. It's only the first one but I think the quality is better and I'm very anxious to get some new paintings up and running.
I just want to pluck this guy off the page and hug him. That's probably the result of being a dog free zone at this juncture. Oh well, I have the neighbors pups.
