I haven't written very much lately so much is going on with my life. Everything

seems to be going so fast it is unbelievable. My oldest daughter is retiring from the Marine Corp

and is moving here. Hooray! Like that isn't awesome enough...My youngest daughter called last week and told me that she is moving here also. Unbelievable. My prayers are being answered one by one. I am so blessed.

I Still Believe

Painted in 2010 but thought I would share with you once again....

I remember when I was a little girl someone told me that there is

no Santa. That Christmas I still got gifts which I didn't deserve. I still felt the

magic in the air and felt the love of my family at Christmas so no matter what

people may say I still Believe.

These flowers just caught my eye so to speak. I just had to paint them.

Also there is just something about jars that captivate me. I look loser and do what I do...

These are named Yellow Fellows just because I could not think of anything else after two full

days with my grandchildren I am a little frazzled.

Snowed In

Snowed In

In a wonderland of snow is a place called familiar. A place which can find refuge from the cold.

This day I am lucky. This day the barn I stumbled across has a fireplace. Old and filled with cob webs but a sight of comfort as I fumble through my pocket and find a lighter. A little dry hay and a small fire which gets bigger as I add more hay. Warmth precious warmth. I peek out and realize what it is like to be snowed in.

There's Hay Inside

I can remember when I was youngwe went to visit friends who had a barn.

Yes it did have hay inside and I can still remember the musty sweet smell and I smile because

unlike what one would imagine. That smell was wonderful and brings back happy memories still today.

The Blue Roof

The Blue Roof

Ever noticed how a lot of barns have those graying roofs.Almost like an old

grandpa with gray hair. Weathered and worn, almost like those old grandpa's

with gray hair.

One Red Barn

One Red Barn

Somewhere out in the country surrounded by the stillness of life is a barn. A red barn that

has been standing for quite a long time. It is as if that barn red paint makes it

invincable to the sun and rain and snow. It is like some powerful force surrounds it and helps it to

last throughout the ages.

Another glowing beauty on a small 4x4 canvas panel.

 

The Wooden Gate

The Wooden Gate

Somewhere at the end of a road is a barn who someone carefully painted red. Though

weathered and worn it still stands as a constant reminder that country life is the most wonderful life

that one could hope for.

Country Red

Today I decided to start a series of barns. Two things they will have in common is that

they will all have barns and second they will be painted on the small 4x4 canvas panel. They pack

a lot of punch to be so little. How many will I paint? I don't know. I will paint them until one day you will visit and see something else where a barn might have been.

Oil painting on 4x4 canvas panel yes that is 4inches x 4inches.

Hoar's Frost

Hoar's Frost

Once I lived in Wyoming and it would be so cold. Some days we would go out early and

the air would be filled with those sparkling crystals and everything would be crisp and white.

It had a beauty like no other. I loved it.
