Has it been only a month ago...

"Roads to the City"  mixed media on paper  11"x15"

Remember the painting I started February 9th? You know this one?

Tomorrow I may change it or add to it ... or .... it may stay the same....

Have a great day!

"Grand Hotel"

11"x15" mixed media on paper

Today, I finished this little guy and resumed working on the pieces that need to get finished.

This cup has a splash of coffee on it and a few other mixed media items. For example, there is golf leaf,  glitter and some kind of screen stuff (not sure where it came from anymore) and layers of paint, stained papers and pieces of financial charts.

The piano's will be out this Thursday and I am working on putting a little video of last Saturday's Piano Party.

Have a great day!

"Four is More" -Sold

about 12"x11" mixed media on paper

This painting I was trying to be a little calm. Calm colors and hopefully a calm feeling, and it is loaded with olives. If that is what those big dots are.  : )

Just before the big snow hit our city yesterday afternoon, I got to paint kitty's with some young enthusiastic artists. We finished just in time to beat the snow and oh we had a wonderful time. See for yourself!

We are hoping for Spring.

Here is Rogue, she followed right along with me, right down to the fish tag on here orange kitty's collar.

Enjoy your day,

"Totally Cool" ---#26

7"x5" mixed media on paper

A crazy "Totally Cool" martini for a Sunday night. Yes, this is number 26 of the thirty paintings for January. I'm starting to wonder what February should bring. Hmm....

Have a good week. I hope to make another painting tomorrow!

"Monday Manhattan" ---#13

7"x5" mixed media on paper

It's a little mixture of india ink, oil pastel and oil paint on paper. Yes, I wouldn't drink it on a Monday morning, but I can paint one!

This is number 13 of the thirty paintings, number 12 is still on the painting table but will be finished later today. I remember the guidelines for this challenge requiring us to "have fun", I'm all for that! That being said, I'll have a little fun and mix it up! Even if it is a mixed up manhattan. I know, don't become a comedian JanettMarie.

Have a great day everyone and later you will see what one usually drinks on a Monday morning.

"Celebration Bouquet 2" ---#11

8"x6" mixed media on paper

Number 11 for the 30 day challenge and the third of the bouquets, so I guess something newer tomorrow. I'm using this painting to give myself a little breathing room to get through today. If I finish a painting today for this challenge and still have fun I will have won. I like to have fun and I like to win so let's all have fun today and I'll report back.... tomorrow!

PS: Eleven is a magical number, today should be magical.  : )

"A Little Morning Spark!"

22"x30" mixed media on paper

Here is another big one for you Joanie! This painting has a bit of glitter in the left area of what would be coffee inside the cup. It adds that little spark that we need in the morning to get us started!

This was originally slated as coffee cup painting number 50, but someplace in my cup tracking, I lost track and I actually have an extra cup around #'s 23 & 24, so this one has been promoted to number 84.

Oh, isn't it great to be able to go with the flow........

"Center of Attention"

22"x30" mixed media on paper

Well, this one certainly had my attention for a long time and... it still does!

This is coffee cup painting number 83 and it is a big one at 22 inches by 30 inches. Hmm, that may look very nice above Myra's sofa! Yes, right next to....

Another coffee cup tomorrow Martine!

Myra, I hope you're okay after those tornadoes that messed up Dallas this time.... I really dislike tornadoes, a lot.
