Tiny Art




I got these cute little canvas trading cards. I'm not impressed here. I think I'm completely back tracking in my progress, and I just wasn't in the mood this evening and had no clear cut ideas. Here is Sutherland my other cat, and a spring tulip. Big whoop.

Herbert The Derbert


I love my cat Herbie. Apparently my purpose in life is to make sure that all his needs are met, a huge bowl of cat food available at all times, a clean littler box, and cat fountain, otherwise known as the leaky faucet in my bathtub. These are the things that he really enjoys.

People's Park Lemon


Took a photo of a lemon at People's Park, and here is my rendition of it in acrylic paint. My first thought was this is a dud of picture, but the more I look at it, the more I like it.

Sailboat


I went walking downtown today, hoping to find an art supply shop, but there wasn't any. I did walk into a couple galleries though. I bought some postcards with designs on them by Ann Windell. I love her flowers, but I thought her sailboats were good too. This is my attempt at imitating her. It was fun. I tried to "imitate" Van Gogh this morning, his Starry Night on the Rhone, oh my it sucked. I'm not going to show it here. I need to remember, I'm rusty, and I need to keep my images simple. Then, I do a better job.

Spring Tree


A picture by Klimt was the inspiration for this one. Doing a bunch of dots is fun.

Trees at Sunset


This canvass is the size of a bathroom tile. I got the idea looking at a photo that I took of the sunset through the trees off my boyfriend's back patio.
