2022-10-23T14:58:45-04:00

{Hank's Pet Portrait - 11x14 inches original painting} This doggie portrait was commissioned by a wife for her husband's birthday.

2022-10-23T14:56:14-04:00

{Adding some shading to the yellow gerberas on Keri's Bridal Bouquet} Don't you just get lost in that middle gerbera? I do. I love how the light hits some of the petals and how the shading creates a depth to it.  This is my view when I paint. I sit on my chair, indian style and with my face only a foot away from the canvas. Sometimes when I'm doing very detailed work my nose almost touches the [...]

2015-11-04T15:23:43-05:00

Cherie and Colette Hello lovelies, You may recall that I became certified healer last summer and my Master Teacher is the wonderfully fiercely compassionate and infinitely giving woman Colette. In early 2009, I participated in my first workshop with her and it really changed my life. I wasn’t sure what was wrong with me but I didn’t feel like myself. I was used to having so much energy and being creative, but I could barely do [...]
