Unusual Weather We're Having, Ain't It?

Full view

Close-up

This painting was inspired by a photo of a poppy by Graham Owen. He was generous enough to allow me to re-interpret it in oil.  Do yourself a favor and check out his brilliant work here. 

This is an oil painting on a 16 in x 20 in x 1/2 in stretched canvas.   It is SOLD.

Number 12


Muggles might only see a painting of strangely numbered townhouses -- 13, 11, 10.  Witches and wizards will notice the outline of a wizard in the place where townhouse #12 should be. 

This is an original oil painting on 16 in x 20 in x 1/2 in stretched canvas.  It is SOLD. 

The current owner of the painitng has reported that she's occassionally seen the wizard moving amongst the bushes.

Scottie's Monopoly

Close-up


Full View

You know how everyone has her favorite monopoly piece?  The one she feels somehow gives her an edge in the game? 

Mine is the thimble.

But the dog was more fun to paint. 

This is an original oil on 12 in x 12 in x 1/2 in stretched canvas.  The sides of the canvas are painted as well, so no need for a frame. 

I plan to post it on etsy in a few weeks after it dries.  If you're interested in the painting, please let me know and I'll be happy to cut out the middle man.

Memory Bank

Close-up

Full View

This is an original oil on a 14 in x 11 in stretched canvas (half inch deep). It is unvarnished; there is no sheen.

The piggy bank featured was given to me more than ten years ago by a great friend who filled it with pieces of paper on which she'd written favorite memories. The painting is titled, "Memory Bank" in her honor.

The image continues onto the sides of the canvas, so no need for a frame.

This painting is SOLD.
