Mick : Dog Portrait

This is another commissioned piece I’m working on, his name is Mick - his portrait is on a nice traditionally wrapped & tucked 8″ x 10″ canvas.

I’ll begin painting all three portraits as soon as I can - I must have brought a stomach bug home from my trip, it hit hard yesterday afternoon and I’m still taking it easy today. I’d like to have these done by the end of the weekend.

Maude & Cheeky : Cat Portraits

These are two cat portrait commissions I’ll start painting in oils today, Maude (a calico) is on the left, Cheeky (a persian kitten) on the right. They’re both 4″ x 4″ square. If I get on a roll with these two, I’ll be able to work more on the Great Blue Heron until my canvas order arrives and I can start my next commissions.

Hudson/Putnam Valley Sunset




The last several days in the Hudson/Putnam Valley area were really beautiful. I ended up being busier than I thought I would be, so scenic imagry is limited.

I’ve returned to a ton of blank canvas patiently waiting in the studio, and will start sketching new pieces today and get ready to throw some paint this week!

New Look

Well, have a look, check around, this is it. It’s the streamlined, clutter-free version of me. Of course I still have to tweak a couple of little things, but I’ll get to that (and you won’t even notice). I’m even going to add some prints and possibly some notecard sets to my blog specific prints page.

Comments are now in a fun little popup window. Why not? It seemed so cute, I couldn’t resist.

Please, tell me you love it - I’ll even settle for “I’ll get used to it”. :winking:

(Seriously, you don’t have to appease me, I just prefer it that way.)

Favorite Wildflower



I’m not sure why, but Poppies seem to grow on me more and more every year.

Peek-a-boo

Yes, this is another metaphorical photograph. I’m trying to catch up, but my list of things-to-do keeps growing larger.

I’ve upgraded my blog to the newest version of Wordpress, and I’m working on a new design as well. Those of you who have registered, you will want to login upon your arrival.

Blog Design for FUN!

I did it all for Fun - Mrs. Fun, that is. (Hardee har har, I know.) The blog and the gallery were both part of the plan - getting off Blogger and getting a more professional setup for her amazing photography, and a better platform for her bloggin’ self.

Now she’s all prettified, comments work, no lag time (neener neener, blogspot!), and she’s got the latest version of Wordpress. Go you, Mrs. Fun!
