Pink Returns (maybe)

opposites in feeling and execution.


not the best likeness of the house, but, it'll do for a start.
'Course, then yesterday we got snow, so, what do I paint?


"Moo my ass! Get some fire out here! We're COLD!"

OK, this is from a picture on the wall of the hotel room.

I'de call it mediocre


not doing it justice,
the couple was real ( I stayed back)
and the second full moon was real, too.
 
OK, I'll cop to it.
This isn't real.
I just liked the trees there and this kind in particular.
I remembered it from when i was in Tampa as a child.
and the scrub palms underneath.
Just threw in the ocean as I saw it from the balcony

One Day, In the Barn....


Once upon a time, in a lil Red Barn
tucked away just outside a quiet village in Ohio...
There was a very pretty girl...
(much prettier than anything I've drawn)

...and, of course,
a boy
(isn't it always like that?)


"..oh my,..."
she said as she held him and inspected him.
"That will do nicely, I think,"

and the boy was quite happy to hear that...
but of course, he would be wouldn't he?

Indiana has Cardinals


Though none realized that's what that was
so, I called it
"Charlie Brown's Tree"

I think I can paint a person








...just give me a couple of tries at it....
.

Can't see the forest for the trees?


But, what about a forest in the distance?

Old Friends


Indiana is dotted with little forest islands.
In the Fall, they huddle together and show off
their colors, their height, or, maybe....
they're screaming, "TURN the HEAT ON!"

Half Dome

I suppose they never have to think about if....


It will it be a cold winter....
If they have something soft to sleep on....
BUT
Then again, what kind of shampoo/conditioner?
Brush or a comb?
Is that a BBQ grill the farmer brought home?
So, six of one, half a dozen of the other,
and I pick three pairs....

Jeanie sent me some things to paint

Weekend Reading


Too bad most of the readers don't practice.
Heck...
Some of the best practitioners are atheists!
(or something others call atheists, at least)


(go figure on that one, eh?)

Crayons. Less choices makes it easier.

(camera's still down) RERUNS


Christmas present for Steve
years ago (still had one eye, then)

Another "copy" of sorts


Sticking to the content
but altering it is fair play, too.
This one hangs at church.

something new, something old


I still copy the masters of the past because
I learn something new everytime I do.

Sis took some pix of pix for me....


....painted today...
this one is 11"x14"
.....................................................
last of the smaller canvases painted
(the other day)

I'm starting to like these smaller canvases, too.

Her camera certainly grabs the details sans glare, too, eh?
....................................
here's another

they do look better without the glare.
thanx again, Andrea!

and the one I saw on the way back from Ohio

Since my camera's busted....


Mediocre job...
I like the colors
I like the feeling
It's even the right time of year
but, there's something wrong
(and I'm not talking about the screwy perspective...
it's hanging on a wall in the church...)

What a face!
