I LOVED painting this piece with the horses milling around eating grass. The sunlight is bro

I may use something similar on the dogs I am starting. The collector lives in CA and has several of my paintings and she reached out hoping for something contemporary with her babies.  I am still debating on the approach but know in my heart, when I start I will let go and let the paint flow.  I watched a shared video on FB this last week. It was entitled: Just Go Quietly On.   I enc

But in the end, it's always their actions you should judge them by. It's actions, not words, that matter.” Nicholas Sparks The latest discussion from last night on some of the message from Sunday was similar to you are what you eat.  You are what you think. You are what you watch. Basically what you chose to focus on in your mind and heart is basically who you really are.   Where do you spend your time when you are not at work?  Television? Books?

Not sure about what you answer to yourself here, but 95 percent of the time... I tend to be quiet and withdrawn.  Then there is that 5 percent where I cannot seem to stop talking. Usually that is where I am offering advice or a story that pertains to someone's question to me. I have learned as I aged, there is a time and a place to offer up information or advice. I know now that my kids do not listen to any of it....but they have suddenly aged and made me

Tolkien, The Hobbit Well I do like it this way!  A bit risky but more of what I am enjoying but still not where I want to wander entirely.  I love the light of the moon and the highlights in the piece. I love the ebb and flow of the paint and feel the strength in the painting itself.  It came a journey and I had to let go of the foundation sketch and let the paint go where it wanted to go. 1 Chronicles 28:20 "David also said to Solomon his son, “Be strong and courageous, and do th
