Portrait Of My Little Ballerina


Wonderful news, my painting has arrived.!!!
I'm so thrilled it's here. It's come all the way from San Salvador, an Island in the Bahamas.
It's a beautiful Pastel Portrait 16x20in of my Grand Daughter Julia 3yrs,. painted by a wonderful Artist and friend Li Newton. her website is   HERE..
She's a fantastic artist and photographer go have a look.
I was Host to a Weekend  Challenge at an Artist site called WetCanvas some weeks ago. One of the references I posted for the Artists was a photo taken by my daughter of Julia in her Tutu,  When I saw this painting that Li had done of her, I just had to have it, a birthday gift to myself .(big smile) Isn't it gorgeous LOL!!!

Mr.Musselman Champion Standardbred Trotter


Hi there, just a quick note.....
Just adding an update to the previous post of this gorgeous boy.....Did some cropping, and adjusting, to see what  the drawing would look like set up. So thought I'd post it for you to see how we fiddle at times, yes, I'm playing again. Hey I own up to it. That's just the way I am.  What's a girl going to do.....????  (smile)
It's another beautiful day here again, so, I'm  on my way out. Got my camera with me. Yes, I'll be looking at more flowers for sure.  Just can't stay away from them. I love flowers, can you tell...... Have a good day you all!!!!

Mr. Musselman - Gorgeous Horse

 Hi everyone!!! Posting another painting.... There was a Challenge on WetCanvas-an Artists site- recently to paint a portion of an image of this gorgeous horse, be it abstract, macro, what have you.
So this is what I  did.......
This was done in my Scratchbook with Water Color Pencils. Not that familiar with the medium, especially when wet. But I like how this turned out, many layers, about 2 hrs or so.
As you can see the horse is a Champion Standard bred Trotter.
I sure would love to see him race!!!!

Saturday

Delphiniums Summers Delight

I love Delphiniums. I wait every year for them to start blooming. This is a painting I did on impulse, painted quickly, without thinking about it too much. It's a study, for a larger format that I'd like to do.  Wanted to see what kind of composition might work for them..  Will have to think on it for a few days, or weeks .......LOL
I like to post so I can see what it looks like from a different perspective.
Thanks for looking, hope you enjoy!!!
Painted  with Acrylics 8"x10"  on Watercolor paper
