11/14/10 Sweet Temptations- found a home!!!

This piece of fluff is finally going to a fabulous home. Kelli Hale bought it for he daughter's playroom where the walls are brown. It should look really great. Hope Keaton doesn't try to scrape off some of the icing since I built it up a bit with impasto and it LOOKS like real icing.I had a lot of fun doing this one. Might try doing another but a single and really applying the impasto and lots of sprinkles!

Thank you for taking the time to check out my blog.

11/02/10 Still on the fritz!

This is my dear friend and trainer, Brian Hall who perished on Mt. Hood in Oregon almost 4 years ago. It doesn't seem possible that it has been that long that he has been gone. I painted this portrait in an almost Pop-Art style that I thought his sister Angela would like. After drying properly, I will send it to her.

Thanks for your patience with the camera ordeal and a thank you goes out to Kay for taking the picture for me.
