Untitled


10x20 Acryic on cavas.
I was asked to paint this for a gift. It has the same colors as one posted before but I did it a little different. I made the main cross the size of the canvas and the two others smaller.

Lindsey's Cross

Lindsey's Cross is acrylic on canvas
10x20.
I guess these cross pictures have been a favorite to many of my friends. This is a commissioned work for Lindsey for her birthday from a friend. She gave me a sample of her bedroom fabric to match the colors. I love how the crosses stand out and the colors were perfect. I hope this was a big hit at the party.

Madison Ave. New York City


This is my first entry to Karin Jurick's Different Strokes for Different Strokes. It is a 6x8 acrylic on canvas. Karin offers a paint challenge every few weeks for you to paint. I decided to try it out. If you have never been to New York City, you need to go. It has endless streets of tall buildings and taxi cabs galore. I went for my first time in November with my dear sister and her husband. It is an amazing city to visit during the holidays. Larger than life decorations offer supurb photo shots. Times Square at night is quite an attraction you won't want to miss. If you took your watch off and had no idea of the time, you'd think it was the middle of the day due to the thousands of lights filling the night sky,a true shock to the senses. Now I know why it is the city that does not sleep.

A couple of friends came by last night to paint. I decided to paint this for a friend for her birthday. I am so excited about its turn out. I painted with a palette knife. I love the turnout! You see lots of vibrant colors but have to look for the crosses. LOVE IT. May have to keep it for my self. If you like the way it turned out I would love to paint this for you. Remember each is unique and I can customise for your particular taste. The cost is $40.00. Contact me via email if you cannot live without it!
