This year, I'm getting an early start on Autumn. Used to be I'd wait till Thanksgiving. This one is part of my "Ladies in Funny Hats" series, only she's got a cat and no hat. It's based on an old ACEO I did several years ago, see below.  One more thing: Can you find the heart hidden in the composition?

"Her New Hat" 8x6 acrylics on panel. This was from a live model in a painting studio I attend. Want to thank Eve Larson for advising me to crop it (it started out as 8x8) and Kelly Borsheim for giving me help with the hat. Two wonderful artists and wonderful friends!

I am thrilled to announce that I've been selected by Daily Paintworks as one of their featured artists. It's an honor to be part of a group of artists I greatly admire. I've got a lot to live up to!

Daily Paintworks includes auctions, so I will be selling my work through them. You might still catch me on eBay, but I love being on a site where it's nothing but art, art, ART!

WIP Stage two: True to my vision despite similarities

WIP stage two. Acrylic on 12x12 canvas. No title for this piece as of yet.

There are several images I've used consistently throughout the years such as a checkerboard, a fish, and figures in weird hats. Checkerboards, fish, and figures with strange headgear are also used extensively by an artist whose work I greatly admire. I mulled this over a lot and finally decided that since I was already using these images in clay and in watercolor over many years, and since my full intent is to create my own original vision, that it was OK to continue with them in paintings. So I put all three in this painting to challenge myself to use them and still present my own vision. I think I have succeeded. By the way, the fish has something the cat and heron both want--besides a nice fillet!

The Knot

Earlier this year I did a watercolor ACEO of this same composition. (see below) Here it is in acrylic, on a raymar panel, 8x10.
"The Knot". The idea came from people arguing. The cat, well, I have a couple cats and they make great studio models.

The head is from a clay figure I did; the hands/arms are from a photo of me holding a knotted rope --looks pretty silly as a photo, but makes a good painting subject!

Here's the watercolor ACEO version:
