I just had to paint him once more. He really is the cutest thing.

Morning Coffee

Morning Coffee

The first cup is always the best. When my eyes pop open the first thing I think about

is that I am glad to be alive and thankful that God allowed me live to see another day and then Coffee.

As I lay there I think I can smell that wonderful aroma. My imagination I am sure.... But wait...

my husband did get up sometime before me and the coffee is made. I see the dark rich fluid as it becomes dark in the cup. I feel the warmth in my hand as I hold the delicate china cup and drink in the senses of

pleasure even before my lips touch the cool glass rim. And then Ahhh! Nothing like it. I would like to 

share this toast with my artist friend Janett Marie who daily paints coffee cups. Visit her blog to experience a different kind of cup.

Pink Pig Blue Pig

Pink Pig Blue Pig

These two pig share the same pasture. They roam and root. They gallop and play in the

morning sun. They don't know that one is Caucasian and the other not so there are no prejudices here. 

They love they share and they are ultimately happy. Imagine that.

Big Cat

Big Cat

I am a feline but most people who see me just say that is one

Big Cat. I love in the jungle and I am the ruler. 

Don't question my authority cause I really am one big cat and I do like

to eat meat and in the grand scheme of things if you are

reading this you are meat. Get my drift?

Any Cow

Any Cow

Well well well. I am a cow.... Bet you guessed that right. I am some special cow... Not just any cow.

I stand all day long and eat the green grass. In the evening I hear the horn of a vehicle.

That truck horn is calling me to come eat some hay,

calling me alone because I am a cow but not just any cow you know....

I looked at this little buger and somehow the memory of being pinched

by a crab came back to mind. Ouch     don't want to feel that again.

United We Stand

United We Stand

Don't know why as I looked at these I titled it this. I guess maybe because

as CNN plays on the TV telling me such gloom and doom I think of country and 

freedom and family and my feeling interjected into my painting for today.

 Who can argue with that..... United We Stand.

On a Quiet Beach

A tree standing tall. I have always been intrigued by these. They are so tall and straight.

They sway in the wind without breaking. They really can't be called a shade tree even

tho they do cast an interesting shadow.

Storage Building

Storage Building

I grew up in the deep south. A country road Hwy 84 in face goes from

Grove Hill to Monroeville, Al.   Right before you cross the Alabama river

there is a farm with cows and trees and a silo. I remember it from my childhood and

it is still standing. I always wanted to paint it and now I have

I know there is a lot of red here but what I see is that long green stem.

I love the pepper of course but I can imagine all sorts of things as I look at that stem.

It is kinda like cloud searching. You can see what you want to see.

Misty Lake

Misty Lake

Somewhere out there is a hidden lake where the water trickles down the

path of least resistance kinda like some peoples lives. That is the easy path. 

I must admit somedays I do follow that path just because some days I am lazy but then

others I fight against the current. I stand up for what I believe and scream loudly in

protest against things that are wrong. I miss the days where morales were held sacred

and the people who held them high were thought of as good instead of bad.

Makes me wonder where we are headed.

If I Had A Barn

If I had a Barn it would be one like this. It would be well used with a history of good things. 

It would be a barn where animals were happy. It would be in a grassy field with sprigs

of flowers popping up out of nowhere. If I had a barn it would look like this one.

On A Damp Misty Day

On a damp misty day right after the rain the world is perfect. No storms to take away

the blue gray pavement. Nothing better........
