Renye's Two Chairs

The painting below was painted by my friend who passed away 2 years ago. Renye Ress was very talented. About ten years ago, I was fortunate to acquire this painting. I don't know it's title so I call it "Renye's Chair."
She had a show at Common Grounds Coffee House on 32nd and Lowel. It was right before Christmas so I purchased this for my husband. We knew Renye from doing theatre in the Denver area. My memory serves me that when we were around her a lot of laughter transpired.



This is why I could feel her laughing with me when I composed this painting.

It is acrylic, 14" x 11" on canvas. "Renye's Two Chairs" has some elements I borrowed from Renye's painting. You can find it at Stella's Coffee House on February 15th.

Yes, that is a crop circle painting on the wall. The image makes me happy.
It appeared in Lockenridge, Wiltshire, UK in 2008. It looks simple but it is complex. Crop circles are fascinating. I plan to include them more in the future.

This is called "Up On The Roof"

It is 30" x 15" oil on canvas.

This is the view from Denver's wonderful museum next to the zoo and City Park.
From the roof of the Denver Museum of Nature and Science, you can see very handsome beauty called Denver. This painting is hanging @ Stella's Coffee House in Denver. See you there!
"The Highway to Fairplay"

This was hung at Stella's Coffee House in Denver on March 30th.

THis is a 12" x 16" oil on canvas.

One of my favorite places to see is this stretch that starts at the Great Sand Dunes and then works its way North to South Park. I love the little home stead at the base of the mountains.

This is "Denver City Golf Course". Wow, exciting name. This is an example of how I like to paint in oils. I think of it as modern impressionism. The paintng is 30" x 12" oil on canvas. I will be hanging this at Stella's Coffee House on South Pearl St. In Denver February 16th. It is for sale as are my 2 longhorns.
These two paintings are 12" x 9" oil on canvas. I will be hanging them at Stella's Coffee House on South Pearl St. in Denver. I've gone back to more traditional style oil painting here. I have finished it off with a high gloss varnish just to mix it up a little. I have a tendency with oils to paint more boldly and thick. My retentive qualities show up when I paint with acrylics. Here I went more retentive. It was fun.
Hello there! Video killed the radio star. Face book killed the blog. Anyway, here is the lovely longhorn that was march down the streets of Denver in January for the stock show. It was so much fun to see the cowboys and cowgirls and their beautiful cattle.

Been busy. Finished writing my novel. Now I'm actively looking for an agent. My friend Jen Carter moved to Ohio. That put a dent into my patterns.
These tulips are available in print. My painting was going to go to Stella's Coffee house, but I sold it before it could get hung. Wow! That never happens. They were fussy to paint. Red is a difficult color to replicate from nature.
Wrote a fanfic for XFiles 3 or FX3. You can check it out by going to tvsight.com "fanfics" It's called "William Story".
Will try to check in on all the blogs I used to go to. I do complain about lack of time. Just let it be said, at least I'm having a good time.

Samantha

This is my first witch doll. She is so pretty. Samantha is dressed for her coming out party and she came with her cat, Desire. Jenny from 
Wonders of Whimsy has been mentoring me on these dolls and I love it.  I am so excited, I am already on my 3rd doll.  I hope to bring at least one doll a week and truly hope that I can actually make some money.  She will be listed on E-bay this evening at 8 pm mountain time.  Click here to view her auction.
