Mosha Day 30 of the 30 day challenge

6" x 6"  acrylic   $70.00

Mosha is a composite of a photo and a vision from my mind.  I consider this little boy one of the adopted lost boys from Peter Pan.  I cannot remember their names,  Mosha to me is a sweet temperament, wiling to please, and desiring to be loved.  I know some boys like that in foster care.  I pray that they feel loved, that they become responsible citizens and that for all the rest of their lives they seek God.

Krystal's Eyes day 24 of the 30 day challenge

6" x 6"   watercolor  SOLD

Krystal is my first granddaughter.  She is now 27 years old and and actress in Hollywood.  When she was a baby she had enormous brown eyes and a tiny face.  She was always curious, loved to be the center of attention, and we loved giving it.  Krystal is so humorous.  She imitates anyone she meets and exaggerates their speech, colloquialisms, and mannerisms.  She is quite sharp witted and sarcastic, diminutive, adorable and has a monumental heart.  She has gone through some tough times in her short life, but is able to elevate those times to humor.  I respect and love  her so much and am so impressed by her massive courage. 
and I just adore her and never get enough time with her.

Taylor In Sunshine

6" x 6"  watercolor SOLD

I had to depict Taylor in sunshine because that is her personality!  She is the most lighthearted, gentle, cheerful granddaughter who knows how to listen, prepares great food, is and supportive when you need help. She contributes to her basketball team and swimming as well.  Taylor does have  a serious competitive, creative  side, but would rather hang out with family and friends and bring comfort where needed.  I love to relax with this fun girl!

Sam the Man Day 20 of the 30 day challenge

6" x 6"  watercolor  SOLD

My handsome grandson Sam is no longer a child.  He is making decisions about school, friends,  and life.  He is a hard worker, loves to be funny, to tease, and is an extremely caring person with a warm and gentle personality.  He is athletic, strong, loves to climb and is daring.  I  love him so much.  When I make paintings of my loved ones, it is as if they were once again babies, and I can look closely into those beautiful eyes, almost smell the baby sweetness, and dream about a safe and productive future for them.

Krystal

15" x 14"  w/c  not for sale

Krystal is one of my beautiful granddaughters, in fact my first grandchild.  Krystal is an actress and a comedian with huge brown sparkling eyes.  I love her funny sense of humor, especially when she gently imitates me or someone else she knows.  She is bright and imaginative and has a hearty laugh. You always feel comfortable around Krystal because she cares about you and you know it.  I love her with all my heart.

Einstein in Blue

10" x 14"   watercolor    $60.00


Hi everyone! 
Thanks for your patience and joy!

 Don't you just love this familiar wizened face  and white fuzzy disheveled hair copied from a Time Magazine cover?  Gotta love his amazing creations and dedication.   Can't we all get sort of dowdy when we are impassioned by the work being done?   

I have  been recuperating from my 3rd retina detachment since Dec., but it cannot keep me from dreaming about you and thinking  magical creations in my mind. 

If you need to know anything about the operation for yourself, please let me know.
