NEW: Weekly Painting Give Away

 Each week I will be giving away one of my "Speed Paintings". 

To be entered in the weekly drawing, you must "Write a comment" that you like the painting under it's posting on My Facebook Page .

72 hours after the Drawing Image is posted, entries will close. At that time a random drawing will be held to select the winner from qualified entries.

You may only comment once. 
 Do Not just click "like". That is not a valid entry.

The winner will need to contact me with their mailing information. In return I promise never to sell or give that information away.


**Disclaimer: These are NOT competition or museum caliber works, but rather they are the fun and experimental pieces that frequently help me progress to another stage in my painting. This does not mean they are not worthy of framing and enjoying in a home environment.

Shhhh...Whisper

The first show of the year for me, is traditionally the TVAL's Annual Sweet-Art Members Show. It is a nice gentle start to kick the year off.

My original intentions were to do a collage with entwining hearts, in honor of the show being in Loveland over Valentine's Day.

But much to my surprise, a delicate female image appeared in the rice papers I had applied!

I love this painting. Partly because she is what the late Bob Ross used to call, "A Happy Little Accident". And partly because I feel she was, truly a gift to me.
