"Watercall"

22'" x 30"  w/c original   $1500.00

Water spills down the rocks, splashing and splattering freshness and calling noisily. 
The fragrance is scintillating because of it's cleanness.   The sight of it is invigorating.  Water is life giving.  Water can also destroy.  Moving water gets rid of debris and pushes things out of its way.  It comes from the sky, distributes the millions of droplets into ponds, crevasses, oceans, fields, and roots, and then evaporates back into the sky after feeding and nourishing  every living thing in its path. What a delicious mystery.

"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.

"The Sharecropper's Wife"

12" x 21"  watercolor matted and framed   $450.00

Her back is aching. She has bent over the crops in the hot sun all day long and still has to catch the chicken for dinner.  She is young and hardy and beautiful underneath her headscarf.  Her children help when they can, but she wants to make certain they get an education first.  Her vegetable garden is filled with lots of greens, beans, root veggies, potatoes and herbs.

"Rise and Shine Roses"


8" x 10"  oil  $60.00

Hi Everyone,
These dreamy roses had a spectacular perfumy fragrance and lasted long enough for me to take several photos inside and outside, so I hope to paint a few more rosey oils and maybe some watercolors as well.  Wish you could have had a cup of tea with me and lingered awhile so you could have seen them.  My darling husband sure spoiled me on Mother's Day!  I love being spoiled!  I love bright flowers!  I love my life!

5 x 7 original acrylic impressionist painting on canvas board  SOLD!

In Colorado Springs, Colorado you have the ability to stay in your own neighborhood and view beautiful scenery like this, with the layered mountains, trees, and a red roofed house set back behind the trees for the perfect painting.  Gotta love it!
