Big Gulper and Little Yellow Fish


16" x 20"  fabric collage on canvas   $250.00 framed

This fishy creation can be seen at Dale St. Cafe in Colorado Spring, CO. After making several banners for donations with cloth and fabric paint, these fabrics just tugged at my heart.  It is not a fine art painting, but rather a curious underwater scene crafted with various prints and colors. shapes and sizes glued onto the canvas side by side.  After the glue dried, I added gold fabric paint with a fine pointed tube attached.  That covered all the edges and further secured the fabric.  It is covered with glass to keep it clean, then and framed and hung.  I was so intent cutting and pasting while making it, and found later it had only taken 2 hours to create sans paint or frame.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BABY!"

8" x 10"  original oil on canvas   $75.00

Whimsy, wrapping paper, brightly colored posies, a  little plaid,  and boxes all remind me of happy birthday.  It may remind you of something different, though.  This is the sequel to the piece called lemon refreshment.   Lines, dots, boxes and flower shapes all made with a palette knife.  It is a fun piece that calls out to you like happy birthday song.

"Cloud Poppy" original acrylic

16" x 40"  original acrylic  $550.00

A giant floating, dreamy poppy with a whorl of stamens in the center, which is offset for that just right golden mean placement.  Your eyes can keep moving throughout the white petals with their ruffled, wrinkled shadows, like laugh lines around the eyes.
“Elder's Meditation of the Day - February 18  "laughter is a necessity in life that does not cost much, and the Old Ones say that one of the greatest healing powers in our life is the ability to laugh." --Larry P. Aitken, CHIPPEWA    Laughter is a good stress eliminator. Laughter causes healing powers to be distributed through our bodies. Laughter helps heal relationships that are having problems. Laughter can change other people. Laughter can heal the sick. Laughter is spiritual. One of the greatest gifts among Indian people has been our ability to laugh. Humor is natural to Indian people. Sometimes the only thing left to do is laugh.

"Romantic Mediterranean Couple"

16 x 16 oil on deep canvas  $200.00
Couples throughout eternity have found engaging and lovely places to fall in love.  This is a warm scene, with an open door.  You can still smell the lingering fragrance of a delicious Italian repast.  He will bid farewell for the evening and can barely wait to return tomorrow, bringing a small box and a trinket of his affection.

#39 "Emergence"




 

6/9/11    1 1/2 x 20 x 20     acrylic on  gallery wrap canvas 
sold      20 x 20  prints available      $85.00

This is done in a watercolor style, all wet and washy and 

fun. I added lime greens, buttercup yellow, lavender, a few

 touches of coral and brilliant blue colors together on a wet

 canvas and using my spray bottle letting it float and do its

 own thing with just a few odd touches, it looks pretty in

 every direction. Does it say springtime to you?
