It Takes Two

Some paintings are more like dreams than conscious efforts.  That is certainly true of this one.  After working on commissioned paintings this morning I just felt the need to let my brushes and my creativity run amok this evening!  I seem to have a circus theme going on lately :)

Working on a commissioned painting today

I have a collecter that has purchased several of my cattle dog paintings and a few years ago she started commissioning paintings for various clients of hers that have dogs.  I have another one to work on next weekend.

And I've been listening this morning to some beautiful Brazilian music - the soundtrack from the movie Woman on Top.  The movie was pretty silly and predictable but the music is gorgeous!

Red red rose...to go with my Red red wine!

Yes, it's Friday night on Cornet Bay and so I got to have a glass of red red wine while I painted this red red rose.  Cheers!  And I hope you're all enjoying this Friday night too!!

Last Book of Summer

Here's what I'm working on this rainey Monday afternoon...  I actually don't mind the rain but painting this scene of a warmer summer afternoon did make me long a little for some warmth :)

Caught in a Laugh

My ongoing study of painting people...  I think it will take a lifetime :)

Life's a Party

Another sketch from my work desk..what else-cowdogs :)  Aka:  Australian Cattle Dogs

A Sketch during the slow time at work...

We haven't been very busy at work this week so I've been able to do some little sketches between calls.  I finally added some watercolor to one of them tonight.
