My artwork for "Honoring Our Veterans" show at the AZ Art Alliance Gallery

You are Invited "Honoring Our Veterans" AZ Art Alliance Show

My Mom made this small jointed doll. She is about 8 inches tall. My Mom didn't actually make her FOR me, but I begged that I could have it. I love the delicate dress and the tiny lace. One day, I say this plate in one of my favorite stores: Home Goods, of course it was meant to be mine. I had the little art pallet and glued a small ring of elastic on the back. The plate and doll look like they were meant to be together, don't they? Thanks Mom and Home Goods! Two Great Places to Be!

 "Harvest Blessings" is a mixed media on canvas, 30" x 24" and is for sale at the Arizona Art Alliance gallery. If you are in town, come to the reception on Saturday, Sept. 15th from 6 to 8 pm!

I also have some fun sunflower jewelry and sunflower painting prints available. :)

"Summer Pears"

"Summer Pears" is a 11" by 14" soft pastel on Wallis paper and  is now for sale at the Arizona Art Alliance Gallery in Scottsdale, AZ. I am loving this color palette! It is similar to my oil painting of a glass of lemonade that is also in gallery.

It is HOT, HOT, HOT here in Arizona! So I painted this refreshing tall glass of lemonade. The bright red and white straw, a lemon slice and a sprig of mint makes me thirsty! I titled the painting "Something Cool to Drink". It is an oil and measures 24" tall by 12" wide. I'm actually really enjoying looking at this painting, if I do say so myself!
I hope that you are enjoying your summer and can get a "cool" refreshment too.

I don't care what I paint...it is always fun. Especially painting this 4 foot tall "Yoda" for some friends for their girls camp mascot. As long as I get to hold a brush in my hand and mix around a bunch of paint, I am happy.
