Love is sustained by action, a pattern of devotion in the things we do for each other every day.” Nicholas Sparks The Wedding I guess I did more Pop Art than I realized.  Here is The Wedding.  And yes it left quickly as well.  This happy paintings seem to bring such joy where they go.  Do you have a special wedding you have attended or was it your own?  READ MORE HERE. #horsepain...

I believe I was more focused on the developing HEART shape between them then I was on the painting itself  ...

Intense, sweet. But not deep. Okay for prom dates or flings, but not to get serious..Milk chocolates are guys you could date for like a few months, and dark chocolates are for love.” E Lockhart I only have a few more Pop Arts to share, and then may do some old old portraits or just figurative 10-15 years ago. Prom Night was a favorite for me. Fun and happy and still full of joy when I look at it. After looking at this one, I cannot help but wonder if my La Jolla Gallery...

There is not one person that knew Nikki Hardin and had anything but love for her. She worked closely with the Tourette Syndrome group here in the United States and she championed and raised funds for them. She had her own group she mentored called the...

Here I stand; I'm as firm as a rock. If you'll only trust me, how little you'll be disappointed. Be mine as I am yours.”  Henry James They sent me an engagement photo was so much fun to paint it with pop art flavor! They wanted black and white but I suggested a tiny bit of flavor and it worked!!!  Sheer joy.  One of the best times and the best remembered time. Do you remember when you were engaged? Terry proposed on a sailboat as we were heading...

I am painting but only on one painting of a cowboy that I graduated from High School with. It is realism and dang, it takes 100 hours to paint a 16 x 20 where as in abstract painting it would be 5-8 hours. Frida painted every emotion but thrived with the pain and suffering she endured in her relationships and in life. I ask my son if he thought people could...

I have been traveling to Chicago and back and busy and simply not stopping by to share work or a even a thought. I was prepared to share more about my contemplations and my decision- but another challenge brought me to a full halt in life. Just when you believe you have made a decision you have prayed over fo...
