summer so far

some of the things I’m loving about summer so far…

turning the chore of shaving our dog into entertainment for the whole family.  Here he is sporting his mowhawk (hard to photograph, but makes me laugh everytime I look at him).

the midas touch

I used up the last of my gold spray paint the other day.  We had some vases that I just didn’t use, so I thought, why not?  Here’s the result.  Have an awesome weekend!

weekend

Today I’m working, working, working to finish portrait orders!  Here are a few pics from our weekend.  Our boy celebrated his birthday (better late than never) with a Voodoo Doughnut birthday cake.  Yes, a giant two doughnut cake, yumm.

What’s left behind

So I was recently cleaning my studio (something way, WAY past due) and was replacing my work table surface with fresh  canvas.  I cover my big work table where I due most of my painting with canvas so I can just make a mess and not worry about it.   I think the smudges and drips left behind from are quite pretty, so I took a couple of pieces and saved them.  One section got stretched onto a 10″x10″ wood frame and a smaller 4″x4″  section got framed.  I will be putting these up in my etsy shop later today if anyone is interested!
