I think we are having a baby today...




Things are moving along, she is trying to stay home as long as possible. I can't wait to meet this sweet little grandbaby boy, Asher Cody.
The pictures are of Megan's baby shower at our good friend Tina's house. Megan is the last one in the pink sweater, she sure is a cute pregnant girl. I still haven't taken pictures of the finished quilt. I can't believe I got it done with plenty of time to spare. It was done at the shower, but I forgot to take a pic!
I'll post when I have pics of my new grandbaby.

Artwalk Pictures!




I finally remembered to take pictures after I hung a show! As you can see, there are two large older paintings, but almost all of the rest of the work I have done in the last week. WHEW~ I did two in the home follows you series, like we did for the charity auction last month, and the other larger ones I already showed you. There is another wall in the show of a row of 9x12 boxes I did. There were two other artists with work at the show, the place has huge walls! Anyway, if you get a chance to stop by the Taphouse in the next month, let me know.

More work for the artwalk


The first painting pictured is: "Despite Advice From 'What Not To Wear' Hortense Feels Confident In Horizontal Stripes"
16x20 gallery wrapped canvas.

"Lucy in a White Garden" 18x24 on gallery wrapped canvas. The idea for Lucy came from a painting Kelsi did a few years ago on a visit from Georgia when she lived there. I've always wanted to make a print of it, and did this one on a more favorable size canvas so we could do that.
Both will be for sale tonight at the artwalk at Naked City Taphouse in Greenwood.

Naked City Taphouse Artwalk tomorrow in Greenwood


I'm doing an artwalk show tomorrow at the Naked City Taphouse in Greenwood area of Seattle.
Here is the link to the Phinney Neighborhood blog.

This is one of the new paintings, "In Alicia's Dreams, Everything Is All Right In The World" It is 9x12" on board and will be for sale at the Taphouse.

Kelsi drew the little houses and skinnied up Alicia's legs. For some reason I always draw fat legs.
I have been working like crazy, I have done 11 new paintings in the last few days and have 3 more almost done, plus I finished a comission (thanks Kim)
I'll try to remember to take pictures after I hang everything and post them here. I have 9 in a series that I want to hang in a row, straight, and our laser level thing is dead. Argh.

Dancing in a Hollyhock Garden


I did some sketches for a commission and this was one that I liked and was not chosen, so I painted it for etsy. It's 9x12 on board.
