Jason and Kari's Wedding guitar

My husbands cousin Kari married her long time boyfriend, and allowed both my huband and I to stand up. I painted her this guitar to show how their lifes merged together. 
Jason loved guitars, Kari loves cats and fairies. Their wedding colors were black, red, and white.
This was so far the LARGEST picture I did.

This was done on a 48x16" masonite panel with acrylics.



Val's Sandhill Cranes

My stepmom loves the sandhill cranes that show up in her back yard. I made her a quick picture for her birthday to always remember them by.

This was a 12x12" on a 1/4" canvas board in acrylics.




Christmas snowmen 2010

This was the first picture I ever painted off the top of my head.  I had no other pictures to guide me...and for me that is very difficult. I am NOT an abstract painter. I can not just paint whatever comes into my head.  I NEED something to look at to make sure I am doing it right. So this was very hard for me. It took me about 2 1/2 hours, but I was stressing the entire time.  We wanted something to put over the fireplace with our snowman, so this is what I came up with.

It is done on a 12x12" older picture that I found at goodwill. I hated the picture but loved the frame. It was done with acrylics and a heat gun to speed up the drying time.



Reilly's stuffed animals

Reilly has 2 stuffed animals that are his favorite. For his christmas present 2009, he wanted a picture of his stuffed animals.  This is what turned out.

This was done on a  12x12" on a 1/4" canvas board with acrylics.


Randy's Scorpion

This was Randy's 32nd birthday gift (2010). Remember he likes black and yellow, and scorpions.  He LOVED this!

This was done on a 18x20" on a 1" canvas board with acrylics.
