Look at the wonderful edges and brushstrokes! Yay pretty flowers.

Why Hello There

5"x7"

Marbles and Reflections

This one might look familiar.... I don't care, not even a little bit. It's an amazing little painting.

Golden Feathers

5"x7"

The more I paint chickens, the more they look like dinosaurs.... but doesn't she just have the prettiest feathers you've ever seen?

Erin in Blue

8"x16"

My beautiful cousin. Who totally has horns, yes.

Blonde

5"x7"

The textures came out perfect for this one! I wanted to do something delicate and really rounded, but sticking with a very narrow (for me) range of values. Mission accomplished!

Second Bloom- Sunflowers

5"x7"

Just trying to capture the light shining through the lovely little flowers.

Hunting Together

5"x7"

More chickens! Impressionist chickens this time, I LOVE how the brushwork and colors came together on this little one.

Blue Hen

5"x7"

Pretty lady, isn't she? I just love the expression. And the color contrast. Chickens are fun.

Coxcomb

5"x7"

I've been farmsitting, and my friends have gorgeous critters!

Sunlight on the Water

5"x7"
sold

And here we have the flat bright wonderful glare of sunlight and foam and small welcoming waves.

Curl

5"x7"

Wishing I was at the ocean. Even with all the sharks and man o'wars and such. So here's a stormy sort of wave.

Birthday Cupcake

5"x7"
sold

This world needs more flying cupcakes, I'm here to provide them.

Cherries in a Shot Glass

5"x7"

Just because I was really wanting to paint some fruit. Besides, cherries have the shiny and round thing going for them, and fit nicely inside tiny shot glasses.

Descent

5"x7"
sold

And for this one, the light comes from the opposite direction.... love it. I kindof hope they sell together, they would look so amazing side by side on a wall!

Ascent

5"x7"

A much better goldfish than the one from yesterday. Look at the light! The scales!

White Goldfish

5"x7"

Green and Brown

5"x7"
sold

It has been so long since I felt like I *really* had a painting day..... can you tell I'm back? Ah, such wonderful textures!

Hatching

sculpture

This is a new thing for me! I quite love it though. Taking my whole Thing with eggs and mysterious creatures into the third dimension.

Blue Panda

5"x7"
sold

I've got the strangest feeling that this little critter wants a fedora. Unfortunately I have no incredibly tiny fedoras.

Underwater Constellations

9"x12"

I didn't really know where this one was going, so I of course don't know whether it got there or not.... but painting my daughter as a mermaid is always nice!

Antique Wrench

5"x7"

There are some poses- and textures- I never seem to get tired of!

A Rooster Named Moose

11"x14"

Just a portrait of a tremendously special bird.

Crown of Stars

12"x12"

I tried really, really hard to  do something different with this one, and I believe I succeeded! I didn't add any white to her skin, making sure that the stars are the brightest points in the painting- she still glows, but in a different way, which makes the whole thing stronger. At least that's the idea.

WIP

Compound Reflections

8" diameter

Just combining some of my favorite things for a painting! So much shiny, so much round. See all of the refections?

Turkey Skull and Marble

5"x7"

Marbles go with ALL THE THINGS. Also, gotta love the texture and intricacy of bone.

Shell and Marble

5"x7"

Just a couple of my favorite things. Textures rock.
