"Weed Whacker"


6"x 8" oil on canvas, SOLD

The artists of The Daily Painters Gallery all decided to submit paintings based on a theme today. The chosen theme is "weeds"--I guess many folks decided that, rather than pull them, they should paint them. At least for one day. So I felt I should do my part and offset all the really pretty paintings of dandelions and paint my version of a "weed whacker". Enjoy!

"Mary, Quite Contrary"


5"x 5" oil on canvas, (in my private collection)

OK, so I promise this has nothing to do at all with living in the same house as my teenage daughter---REALLY, I swear.

"Her Night Garden"


8"x 6" oil on canvas, SOLD

I would be willing to bet that from the time I started this blog until now, I've spent more time sitting at my computer wondering what the heck to write about these paintings than I did painting them. I do pictures--not words. The paintings don't require much thinking. The writing hurts my brain. And I'm not even sure anyone actually reads these tall tales...so here's some words that go with this painting. I just can't seem to arrange them into sentences: color of moonlight, garden at night, structure of faces, thick paint, abstract heads, fun, love it, can't wait to do another...there. You get it, right?
