Iko

I painted this for my daughter. This is her brat named Iko. He is a brat but he is the most affectionate brat. He has such a character. A cat that acts like a dog.

I'm behind in posting. I finished this one a couple weeks ago.
I'm trying to loosen up with my painting which is very hard for me. I'll keep working on it.

Wedding Kiss

So I keep forgetting to post this one. I finished this one a few weeks ago. I painted this for my parents. I used a small, old,  photo that was not clear for details. Frankly I couldn't make out any details on this one. I have to remember not to paint what I can't see.

Lion

I started this lion a while ago and just didn't have the time to finish him. Well, I finally made the time to finish this piece. Lions are so beautiful and majestic. I hope I caught a little bit of that beauty here. I love big cats and hope to do some more of them in the future.

Horses In The Snow

Well the snow is still falling here. We had record amounts of snow this year. I thought I would do another winter scene and I couldn't resist these horses in the snow. These guys don't seem to mind the snow as much as I do.

Funny German Shepherd Art Drawing

I couldn't resist drawing this funny German Shepherd with the silliest pose ... I also added the bee on his nose just for fun. This was done in colored pencil with a touch of acrylics.

Fox and German Shepherd Color Pencil Art

Here are a couple more quick color pencil drawings. The Fox which is entitled "Staring" and a German Shepherd. Both were done with colored pencil on toned sketch paper.

New Horse Art Drawing

I have been busy doing other things and have not done much art work lately. It has been too long since I last posted anything but am in the mood to draw again. I thought this guy would be fun to do although horses are always a challenge to me.The pose he is giving with his erect ears made him interesting to me. This is done in colored pencils on toned sketch paper.

Seagulls and Colorful Sky Painting

My niece was kind enough to let me paint a picture she took of a beautiful morning sky in North Carolina. I didn't do this awesome sky any justice but this is what I got out of it. I added the seagulls for some movement. I can't think of a name for this one yet. That was fun...on to the next one. Acrylics on canvas

Mosaic Tiled Old Table

My first attempt at tiling. I wish I would have taken a before picture to show the difference. Oh well, I'll remember next time. I will be doing some more tiling, mosaics in the future. This is fun!

My dogs love the water. We go to many places for them to swim and have fun. We'll take a favorite toy of theirs or use sticks for them to chase after in the water. This will entertain them for hours.
