May 27th-Fairy In The Grass

This bird is absolutely stunning! He looks like something from a fairytale, right? I've heard it said to paint only what you love. I love him! I created this bird on a wood block. I added the white/grey sticks at the end to liven it up a bit.

May 13th-"Ladies Love Me"

"Ladies Love Me" is a painting I did for this years entry for the Tomato Art Fest. I am getting ready to send in my application for the show, please be praying for me!

I think it turned out pretty cute. I painted this piece on a square wood canvas. I am hoping to do more fruit inspired pieces soon. I'll keep you posted on what I hear about the tomato show!

Many blessings to you my friends.

May 6th-Trouble Comes To Town

Yes, to answer your first question, this painting took FOREVER! I've been working on it little by little, over the past 6 months. I started off with the sky and water, both bare, and then left it. A couple months later I painted in the mountains and a building or two, and left it. Sometimes it was just anticipating the work that had to be done on it that was so intimidating. But, leaf by leaf and rock by rock I walked it out. At some point I just had to stop painting and decide I was done. I envision I'll do a lot more villages as time goes by.
