Over the years when my grandchildren become independent and get places of their own, I gift them with some of my paintings. Our granddaughter, Cheyenna and her husband Sam, recently got a house and renovated it. They live in New Mexico and I have seen photos of their home. I know their color scheme and style so did these paintings that I thought they will like. The first is an abstract. I put double wires on the back so they can choose to hang it vertically or horizontally.
This next one is one of my fantasy flower paintings.
She is into spooky things, so I painted this box.
I also have some other paintings that I did previously which I will send but won't post here. Once she hangs everything, I am sure she will send photos. When she does, I will post them.
During the holiday season and after the first of the year the paintings I was working on were all gifts. For that reason, I did not have any new work to show at the Owl & Rabbit gallery. I made the hard decision to remove the work I have at the gallery and take a break from showing my art for a while. I have been having artist block trying to come up with new ideas for subject matter for paintings. To tell the truth, most people here are not interested in wall art and what I have been selling is craft items. It was so much easier to sell art when we were in Tucson and my subject matter was southwest themed. I sold almost everything I painted. If and when I come up with some new ideas I will return to the gallery. In the meantime, I have been enjoying working on my doodles.
Here are the doodles I have completed since my last post.
I usually take about 3 days to complete a doodle. When I have 4 or 5 new ones done, I will post them here.
