Lonely Cabin

In 2004 I did this for my father because this is his home away from home. His uncle and him built this little cabin in the woods and it is where we spend our 4th of July every year. It is also my fathers hunting camp every October and November. It is 18 by 24 and it is done in acrylics. I love my father.

Letting go Series

#3

Sorry the series isn't in order in which i painted them but you can get the idea that I was exploring the techinque of Letting Go, Abstract Painting. I always stick with the same style real tight, realistic and right to the point. I needed to release the stress that I get when I try to make everything perfect. The paintings are suppose to get you the feeling of relax and letting go. You can still kind of see where I try to control and put detail. I am very proud of these pieces.

Chair

Pink....this was a study of Maitess style of painting. It really isn't a good example of his work but i tryed. It reminds me of Topical Fruit drink or a HOT summer day.

The woods

Expression painting, I looked at Emily Carr works to come up with piece. I really enjoyed doing the painting because it was free flowing and relaxing. This was a big piece.

Fire of 2002

This was a memorial picture to the fire that took part of my families business in 2002. It was from a photograph that one of our employees took few days after the event. This picture was done in million and million of dots. I used the stipple point techinque. I completed it in about 3 months and I really enjoyed using the stipple point. It is about 16 by 20.

I thought it fitted the topic of Angels and Devils because of the statue of Jesus and the melted and ruined items that was from the fire.

Love MONKEY

This painting was painted by using the knife techinque. It was very fun to do. The monkey was given to me by a very loveable guy my furture husband Clive. It was done in acrylic.

Self Portrait

This piece was created during my senior year in highschool. I made it to like a puzzel because as i grow and learn its like adding a piece of the puzzel to make me whole. It was done in color pencil and it was mounted on a piece of wood to give it the puzzely feel.

Hunter

Done in watercolor. I did this for a friend of my fathers. It was my first watercolor portrait of a person. It took a lot longer then i expected to. His friend was very happy with the end results.

Clown fish

This is a painting I did for my boyfriend and he is crazy about Nemo (clownfishes). I thought it would be a good one to post for illustration friday. I used acrylics to complete this piece. I did complete this painting in 2004.

Dutch Style

This painting turned out to be a very nice one. I really enjoyed painting this picture. My favorite part is the brandy bottle. It was done in Acrylics.

This picture is done in airbrush. It was my first real complete piece in airbrush. The size of this piece is 18 by 24. I am very proud of this piece.

Maggie's Dog

This painting was done in watercolor and the image came from a photograph. I did it for a fellow employee for a memorial pet portrait for her son. This isn't the whole painting; its just focusing on the face.
