Steady Girl by Angela Sullivan

Steady Girl by Angela Sullivan

That cowboy was here again today...Can you believe that he keeps saying the funniest things. He squats

down and grabs me well....you know where...says something about milk and I think what he said is Steady Girl and gave me a squeeze. I tell you the truth I kicked him to next Sunday. Milk?  He left here headed to walmart to buy milk. Steady Girl....I bet it will be a month of Sunday's before he says that to me again. 7x5 oil on canvas panel

Dueling Cherries by Angela Sullivan

 

Dueling Cherries by Angela Sullivan

We started out just a few cherries but then I bumped into this suspicous looking dude and I knew right off that I just didn't take a liking to him. You see.... He just looked at me with that crooked grin. That is when at that very nmoment that I challenged him to a fight...A duel as a matter of fact. Keep watching I will win this one. 5x7 oil on canvas panel.

Powell Harbor by Angela Sullivan

 

Powell Harbor by Angela Sullivan

While camping at Lake Guntersville Alabama we passed this little lighthouse on the river. My daughter Julie was with me and I just so happened to have my Plein Aire setup in the car. I told her I just had to paint this so off we go down a tiny trail of a road. We drive up and Julie jumped out of the car to ask if it was ok to set up there to paint. It was hot and the air was still but I had so much fun. Might I say she was a little more tan when we left. Great fun....

Frog In The Kitchen by Angela Sullivan

 

Frog In The Kitchen by Angela Sullivan

I don't know why I am here. I was outside in the garden when I noticed that someone had left the door open. I hopped as fast as I could and reached the front door. Unnoticed I jumped as fast as I could until I was in the kitchen. On the counter was this set of stacked bowls. I leaped up on the table and found my place. I go undetected even now. As people pass by they just think I am some little cute whatnot not a slimy green toad.

Cut Up by Angela Sullivan

  

Cut Up by Angela Sullivan

I know I know every single day I say how much I enjoyed painting something. Yesterday

I was in my yard and my roses were blooming. I couldn't resist. I went straight into the house, got

the scissors and cut some nice blooms. I was taking pictures of the roses in an empty sliced peach can

when my grand daughter put the scissors against the can and said "Take a picture of this". When I looked at the pictures I just couldn't help but paint it. I really like this one. It has light and dark with which I always seem to struggle.

A Spray of Color by Angela Sullivan

 

A Spray of Color by Angela Sullivan

Just a pitcher of flowers you may say. The truth is that is what we started out as a dark and

forboding piece of canvas with nothing but blue and a little purple here and there. Then sprinkles of color

started showing up and flowers formed and as an after thought the pear. Oh yea and who could forget those blue flowers on the pitcher. What I am trying to say is when all is said and done what could be nicer than just a little Spray of Color. It alone changes the world.

My Grandfathers Guitar by Angela Sullivan

 

My Grandfathers Guitar by Angela Sullivan

I visit him...The old man. I watch as he gingerly rises from his seat and slowly disappears down the hall.

In moments he returns with an old guitar. Even tho it was in almost perfect condition I could tell it was old. I looked up with surprise as he reached his weathered hands out to me as if he wanted me to take it. I reach out and feel the slick smoothness of the wood. A smile sweeps across his face as he says to me...Baby girl she is yours now. I smile back and realize that this is special. I know that the guitar is one of the most valuable gifts I have ever received. The most special gift  My Grandfathers Guitar.

Sitting on The Edge by Angela Sullivan

Sitting on The Edge by Angela Sullian

 We started out among a whole bunch of cherries on the produce isle at Walmart. Thrown

in among the rest we did not seem special at all. Then she walked by with that little plastic bag. She reached down among the dark rich red cherries and picked a handful of us up. Without thought she plopped a few in her mouth and as she savored the rich thick sweetness we shook in our boots. Yes sir re! We scrambled as fast as we could to the bottom of the bag. Now at home on the kitchen table we are trying to decide if we should jump as we find ourselves Sitting Here on the edge wondering whatwill be next.

I Need Love by Angela Sullivan

 

I Need Love by Angela Sullivan

Just a little stuffed bear you say. Well you are wrong. I am special. Today I was just minding my own business sitting on the shelf where she put me when she walked by and mindlessly reached for me. I could feel myself being lifted into the air and then the art studio. Why? I thought to myself am I going there? She reached down and picked up a tufted fancy place mat and arranged it just right before sitting me on it with a box for a pedestal. She squinted and looked and really measured me up. In the end well.... You can see what I looked like. Every time she paints me I always look different. Why oh why can't she get it right? Do I look fat in this? I thought so. Well at least she painted me unlike that place mat I mentioned it ended up being left out altogether. I guess I am the lucky one.

Sunday's Prize by Angela Sullivan

Sunday's Prize by Angela Sullivan

Hey You!!!  Thats right don't be looking at those roses. Slide your gaze right on down here where it belongs. Yea thats right. We are cherry. We can't be overlooked or we get very upset. In fact due to what we have seen on the news today we have ideas of what to do when we don't get the attention we deserve.

We will stomp and shout and protest! You don't want to make us destroy those beautiful roses now do you? Ok that is better.....Pretty ain't we? Glad ya stopped by.

Little Blossoms by Angela Sullivan

 

Little Blossoms by Angela Sullivan

Lately I have been thinking that I miss writing those funny little stories that I used to post with each

painting soooooo....... 

We started out on a bush in the sun. there we were one day just minding our own business when one by one we were gently removed from the mother bush. Not knowing our fate we all said our prayers of course. What else could we do? We were all tenderly placed in a basket and carried inside far beyond the reach of the suns warm rays. Afraid we shivered as one by one we were removed from the basket. Tender hands held us as each of us were made to feel like the only rose in the whole wide world. Lovingly we were placed in this cup but not just any cup. The cup was special also. It was held in the  feeble hands of a grandmother. A grandmother who is now only a memory. As this granddaughter looks at us now she remembers and smiles and is oh so pleased. Happy we are just knowing that today we made someone smile. Today a day that started out like any other but this day is different this day ended in happiness.

Sail Away by Angela Sullivan

 Sail Away by Angela Sullivan

As an artist it is our decision when we choose to change the perspective or color or to add or 

leave something out. My daughter just bought a new home and wants me to paint her a series of 

coffee cups from places she has been. She is retiring from the Marines and will be close to me for the 

first time in a long long time.

Baby Sitting by Angela Sullivan

Mom wanted me to babysit once again. At first I screamed Nooooooo! but then I thought about how tired she has looked lately. My little sister looked up to me and smiled. I decided I would try it just one more time. I know I will just give her all the milk and cookies that she could possibly want and then some candy. Then she will have to be good right?

10x10 oil on gallery wrapped canvas

I had so much fun painting this. I was thinking about painting and how long I wondered when I would ever see my style as they call it. I think every artist must start out painting like someone else until one day you paint something that is truly yours. Today is one of those days. 

My Friends and I by Angela Sullivan

My Friends and I.
 I love Teddy Bears. I have a few of them and occasionally move them from place to place in my house. I cringe when my grandchildren grabs one of them to play with. These are some of them from my collection. A little animated of course. 10x10 oil on gallery wrapped canvas.












I do not have a light box. Of course I want one and have set up several arrangements at different times but really I do need a real one. This is a glimpse of the make shift one I used for this painting. Pretty bad huh?
