"Hayfield"  This is another painting I did in class with Jennifer Bowman  16 x 20 on canvas.  This one hangs on the wall at my father's home.
Phia's Chickadee"  I painted this a few days ago.  Not long after I finished it my 2 year old granddaughter stopped by for a visit.  I showed it to her and she carried it around the rest of the day.  However she was confused by the vertical layout and insisted on holding it horizontally with the twig on the bottom of the page.  5.5 x 5.5 on paper.
"Pink Flowers in a Vase"  I had a very different painting envisioned when I started.  It didn't work out, so I went a different direction.  When I stopped painting (knowing when to stop is the hardest part!) I looked at it and thought, "Lisa will like this."  Sure enough.  It went home with her.  Prints and cards available.
"Toddlers on Beach"  I painted this during a private lesson with Jennifer Bowman.  16 x 20 on canvas
SOLD
"Rooster"  I painted this guy a few months ago.  He watches over my studio.  18 x 24 on canvas
This guy went home with Jill.  Prints and cards are available.
