"Funky winter frolic this side of Nashville"

This is my latest painting. I finished it several weeks ago for the Phoenix club http://www.phoenixclubofnashville.org/. I was asked if I would donate a piece to benefit the middle Tennessee boys and girls club. They will be making Christmas cards for the 2009 Christmas Holiday and New Year season and selling them to individuals in hopes of raising money for a great cause. They will also be doing a silent auction for the painting.

Artwork for June

I'm headed to Jackson's in Nashville to hang a couple more pieces of artwork before my show is up.
I have been working to finish these two pieces for a last minute Nashville theme.  And they were lots of fun to paint.

Inspiration Is A Funny Thing

I have imagined dreamily the layout of a painting or some other creative project and awakened with a desire to dash to my art room. And I usually do! Inspiration is a funny thing, you just never know when it might hit. But it is definitely a nurture and nature process for me. And it calls for me to operate on a whole other level. When it happens I believe it is a gift from God. When it flows and I am focused it is truly a delight to finish a painting or project within a day!

Two of my latest paintings are as follows and they are in my current exhibit:
