We'd like to thank our loyal friends that visited our blog on a regular basis. As a group we've decided that we no longer want to post work on a weekly basis but on our own personal schedules. We plan on continuing with the site as more of a reference place for our work than a working weekly blog. Please continue to check in once in a while to see if we've posted new work and always visit our galleries to see what work is still for sale.Thank you for all of your support over the past year.

Another busy weekend..... Had guests and didn't really get much art completed, but I did manage to start a few things for other folks.
I really think I'm bad at abstract art. I mean really abstract art. I don't have the right feel for the composition like I do with realy objects.Something that I must work on.

the Axolotl

This creature is an Axolotl or "Mexican Walking Fish". The Axolotl is an amphibian, more specifically, a salamander. But, he's kind of like a fish... and kind of like a cartoon. He reminds me of a Pokemon! haha.

So, with that... have a good week!

Presently...

This is another portrait of my beautiful grandma when she was young. She passed away 15 years ago but her presence still remains as well as sweet memories. This was her birthday and she would've been 80. I wonder sometimes what she would be like and what she'd think of me now if she were still around. This portrait was done in light washes of color on purpose. I'm currently finishing my tulips painting for a good friend this week. I think you will see more tulips in the future because I love looking at them and I like what they represent--they are one of the first flowers of spring.
