Always There

Image
Always There Standing...In the sun...in the rain. On good days and bad. Standing... Just waiting day after day to help that wayward straggler. Kinda like us. I do believe I am here to help someone. Someone less fortunate than myself. My hope is that sometime before my life is over I would have made the life of someone else better. What will I do today? I will let you know. 7x5 oil on canvas panel Sold

In His Shoes

In His Shoes One of the most important people in the whole world is Dad.

Be careful Dad someone very important is watching you. 7x5 oil on canvas panel $50 For sale at my DPW gallery just follow the link to purchase via PayPal.

Close To The Beach

Image
Close To The Beach Boats are so interesting as they float gingerly upon the calm summer water. They leave reflections of all kinds which make them much more appealing.  I just love them don't you? 5x7 oil on canvas panel $50 For sale at my DPW gallery just follow the link to purchase via PayPal.

Fresh Picked

Image
Fresh Picked Yes Yes! You could go to the supermarket and buy those firm un-natural tomatoes but you will surely regret it as soon as you get home. They might feel all firm and plump but just one bite will tell you that you made the wrong decision. Now take us for example...We are fresh picked. Fresh picked from your neighbors garden with permission of course. Fresh picked the only way to go... 5x7 oil on canvas panel. $50 For sale at my DPW gallery follow the link to purchase via PayPal.

A Blue Hair Affair

Image
A Blue Hair Affair Guess what I saw today? A little old lady with blue hair... That's right blue hair... I thought she looked so sofiscated and smart. I wanted to be like her because I like it when people notice me... in a good way of course... I went home and passed by a mirror and to my surprise I noticed it I have blue hair too... I feel like a million bucks. Oil on 6x6 gallery wrapped canvas $50

Black Sheep

Image
Black Sheep What does this mean I ask myself. My daughter Julie who is a Marine just got back from deployment. On some adventure in a land far away she bought me this cup. Black Sheep. Does it mean she thinks I am a black sheep or is it her? Surely a question to ponder....It must be her and her rebel self not sweet little ole me. Yes yes I know she must be seeing her inner self....Don't you agree. Oil on 6x6 gallery wrapped canvas $50 For sale at my DPW gallery just follow the link to pay via PayPal

30 Years Later

Image
30 Years Later Soooo...... as many of you know my husband and I repeated our wedding vows last Saturday. It was so much fun...Kinda perfect in fact.  I usually just post my art on this blog but thought this deserved to be shared.  Hope you enjoy looking. I wanted to share because I feel as though many of  my followers are my friends. Here is a glimpse of me and my best friend.

The Fence

Image
The Fence I tell you if it wasn't for this fence I would come over there right now. Thats right... I really would do it. I see that green grass that is surely greener than what I have right here. Oh and by the way I bet those daisies are quite munchie too. If you could just hand them to me I will be quite content I guess the fence is really for my protection anyway. No don't open that gate....I am ok right where I am... Oil on 6x6 gallery wrapped canvas $50

Walking In The Rain

Image
Walking In The Rain Well actually I wanted to say walking in the rain with the one I love.... Some of you may remember this song. However today Walking is the rain alone is  the case. Isn't rain wonderful. The world smells so fresh and clean. Every thing just looks a little  brighter after a nice summer rain. One more secret about me is that I really just love the rain.  I was sitting on the front porch the other day when a down pour occurred. I got so wet that I  was forced indoors. With sadness I left my place of thought and solitude. Oh Well! Another day... Oil on 6x6 gallery wrapped canvas $50

Griz

Image
Griz Yes I am a grizzly one of the meanest bears on the planet. Just the  mention of my name make men tremble. Sometimes I do eat people but that is usually when they get to close like in Yellowstone. You know those pesky tourist  poking around where they shouldn't. One thing though.....I don't eat children. Nope don't like them at all.  Oil on 6x6 gallery wrapped canvas $50

Lettuce

Image
Lettuce Lettuce is not all its cracked up to be. Yes I now it does not have a lot of calories but who cares. It is yucky. It says something about it when the food you are eating is green. Oh Well! That is all I have so I guess I will just have to eat it. Want some? Oil on gallery wrapped canvas $50

Sticking Together

Image
Sticking Together My mama and me like it here. We can go anywhere we choose but here is where we want to be.  Happy we are because all we do all day long is roam around and eat all the grass we want and then late in  the afternoon a truck pulls up and throws off some hay. I tell you I really like that hay but I can't have to  much because it sure makes my belly hurt when I eat more than I should  but that milk....Now that is what I am talking about. Sweet warm milk....Nothing better.... Oil on 6x6 gallery wrapped canvas $50

Udderly I Love You

Image
Udderly I Love You I was a little hungry and when she stopped to nibble on the fresh green grass I thought I would get a  drink. I can eat grass any time but have to sneak some of that warm sweet milk when ever opportunity knocks. Catch ya later I am quite busy right now. Oil on 6x6 gallery wrapped canvas $50

Butt What

Image
Butt What Yes yes! You caught my back turned and thought you would take that opportunity to sneak up on me didn't you? Well I ain't like most cows. I have really really good ears and nothing much gets past me. I could feel your eyes on me. You thought I wasn't looking but I don't need to look. I have a sixth sense about me and for sure I am too clever for you. Butt you say......Butt What? Oil on 6x6 gallery wrapped canvas $50

We Might Get Wet

Image
We Might Get Wet A beautiful sunny day at the beach. Beach umbrella out just to  protect us from the scorching sun then all of a sudden from  out of nowhere the clouds roll in and in the distance we can see the rain pelting down as it touches the far away water. Should we go or should we stay. What I am trying to say is We Might Get Wet. Painted for a challenge at paintanddrawtogether.blogspot.com Oil on 6x6 gallery wrapped canvas $50

Just a Little Box of Cherries

Image
Just a Little Box of Cherries Red is a color I just can't get enough of. I love using it but find it is such a challenge to photograph. Oil on 6x6 gallery wrapped canvas $50

Getting My Feet Wet

Image
Getting My Feet Wet A day at the beach is soooooo much fun. I find that you can just romp and play until your tongue hangs out....No literally. So much fun that no wonder we can't come here every day. I would only weigh about a pound. I have never thought of exercise in such an enjoyable way.  Wow! am I tired.

The Price of Freedom

Image
The Price of Freedom What is the price of freedom? To some it is greater than others. Some give their sons and  daughters while others give their lives. While we celebrate with fried chicken and watermelon and listen to the pops and whistles of fireworks some people hear real explosives. Instead of their children screaming and playing under the water sprinklers they hide in shelters in fear for their lives. We are so blessed. We have so much but for sure at a price. Thank you soldiers thank you all who have served so that we can celebrate in peace. Thank you to all you mom's and dad's who have prayed for your children...for my children who have gone far far away to protect us. Happy 4th and may we embrace peace... I planned ahead and painted this dog for each of you to help us remember the Red, the White, and Blue.

The Dog I Want To Be

Image
The Dog I Want To Be The Dog I Want To Be... Where shall I begin. I want to be loyal yet kind and fun to play with.  I want to be the kind of dog that kids beg their mom's to take home. I want to jump and play and frolic among the flowers. I want to play fetch with some little boy. I want to romp on the beach and  lay down in the shade of a big southern oak. I want to sit on the creek bank as my person catches fish. At the end of the day I want to sleep at someone's feet and know that when I die I will go to heaven because after all.....All dogs go to heaven...right? Oil on 6x6 gallery wrapped canvas $50
