Beneath Her Wings

Beneath Her Wings

Any good mother always keeps her babies close by. This mother is

no different. She is tall above it all she can see inherent danger but it is all ok

because she does keep her little ones Beneath her Wings.

My husband and I went out to eat at a nice restaurant

the other day and he just looked at me a little funny as I started taking pictures

with my iphone. I need these pictures I told him. Today as I was

getting ready to paint I could not help but remember the sweet

wonderful taste of the fresh bread and this delicious spread.

Not long ago my daughter and I were out riding in the car and she ask if 

I knew what the blue reflectors were in the road. Well I didn't. How would I know that it meant a 

fire hydrant is near by. Some things you can't just know.....Well now I do know because

she tries her best to keep me informed. She has a tough job.

Three Wheeled Racer

Three Wheeled Racer

I was watching this weekend as some children played on one of these.

In their minds they had the fastest machine on earth. They raced and pushed and 

laughed and cried all because of this red beauty. No one could convince them that

this is not the best ride on planet earth. No sir rhee this is really a Three Wheeled Racer.

Feed My Sheep

My church is having a transition and my present pastor will become our

senior pastor on May first. Brother Jeremy Dunnam will become our new pastor. I painted

this for his office and fittingly named it Feed My Sheep.

Garden Seat

Garden Seat

In the garden right next to the old shed wall sets a weathered blue chair. Unnoticed it may

seem to be abandoned but not so....It is grandmas chair just waiting for her to return and sit among the 

tulips. It may be nothing to the bystander but to grandma it is her own special Garden Seat.

Hooray It's Spring

Hooray It's Spring

Don't you just love the dance of flowers brought forth after the first spring

green. It is just like new life shown in beautiful color.

Sometimes when you view and object you see only the obvious but upon

Pot of Gold

Pot of Gold

Big bold brush strokes danced off my brush. A little dark a little light and then the

decision to paint a dark blue vase but what really brought this painting to life was the green

leaves. Can you tell that I am passionate about paintings. As I look back over the few thousand

I have painted I am amazed at the changes as my style continues to develop. 

I have went from just copying the work or style of other artist to just doing it. 

I am really having a lot of fun....can you tell.....

Spring Color

Spring Color

I really like loading gobs of paint and then letting it sit atop the

underpainting. I think it makes such drama to an otherwise 

plain subject. This is colors which I mixed and it reminded me of 

the colors of spring.

Planning My Escape

Planning My Escape

Day after day I sit here behind this fence. The fence which

is a barrier to my freedom. I sit and look out and all who see me think it cute

how I look at them. They see me from the other side of the fence. What they don't know

is that when they think I am looking at them I am really looking past them and

with deep thought I am Planning My Escape.

We Are In This Together

Be Careful who your friends are. Be careful where you go... who you talk to...

who you buddy with because no matter what your day brings whether good or bad

the company you keep can really determine your outcome. 

Just remember that We Are In This Together and whether we do good together or bad 

we are usually not alone and our outcome can be influenced by the company we keep.

Well Well Well!   If I look happy that is because I am.

I just got back from a walk with my person. Well it started out to be a walk

but I broke free of my lease and it became a run. If you think my tongue is hanging out

you should see his. The funniest thing I have ever seen. Yep he is laying over in the grass

right now just trying to catch his breath. I think I will take it easy on him and just go lay down

at his side. Don't you think that will be nice of me or should I just go for another run?
