"Home for the Holidays"

I was asked to create this beautiful home portrait and

then turn it into holiday greeting cards.

We were quite pleased with the way it turned out.

This was such a big project - but so worth the effort!

Innis Woods

"Innis Woods"

We have a beautiful metro park in our area where

you can go to relax, walk the paths and see wonderful

things found in nature. They have a waterfall, pond and even

an area where children and school classes can go to learn about

gardening and flowers. They even have weddings that take place on the grounds.

Many artists and photographers go there to paint and take photos.

It's one of my favorite places!

Sweet Nectar

"Sweet Nectar"

Hummingbirds are so fun to watch,

as they buzz past your head in search of

sweet nectar from the beautiful garden flowers.

I love their shiny and colorful feathers!

Clowns on Parade

Giggles, grins and hats that spin.

These clowns are on parade.

They're here to entertain

you on your very

special day!

I designed this painting as an entry in a

recent greeting card contest.
The finished card also has a colored border,
words and glitter on the front of it.

I had a lot of fun designing this card!

"Cheerful Chirps"
I am fascinated with watching little song birds.
They are so colorful and
sing the most interesting melodies.
I love to watch them scamper around as they
eat their food.
Right now I am watching a beautiful pair of cardinals that
come to my feeder every evening about dusk.
I try to make sure that I have some
sunflower seeds scattered around on the ground
in order to entice them to return.
So far it's working!

Sheltie

"Kaylee"

This is Kaylee, a wonderful looking Sheltie.

Her owner is so nice and friendly. She allowed me to try my hand

at painting some note cards of her beautiful pet.

Kaylee sat so still and alert while I took several reference photos of her.

I am so pleased with the way it turned out!
