Cackle Berry still life painting by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan

I found this little creamer and knew that it was just calling me to paint it. I have always loved painting eggs but to be honest have quite failed at painting them. I figured a cut one with the yellow showing might be an easy subject and am quite happy with how it turned out. And then the berry...

Patches of Snow landscape painting by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan

A small lighthouse I stumbled upon while near Cape Cod. I don't know the name because there was no signs. I loved the charm of the steps leading to the house. It was a sunny day with small patches of snow. Landscape painted with oil on a 6x6 gallery wrapped canvas.

I Will Be Home Soon sheep painting by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan

There is just something about animals that just cry out for me to paint them. Another from

the pictures I took while in Amish country last spring.

With A Spoon cupcake painting by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan

I am so much enjoying painting these days. Sometimes I think it is good to take

a little break step back and just breathe. This is another food item that I took a picture of not long ago. Carrot cake is my favorite. 6x6 still life painting oil on gallery wrapped canvas.

Curb Side children painting by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan

20x12 children painting oil on gallery wrapped canvas.

The other day my grandson ran to the curb and promptly sit down to wait on his mom

to get home from work. I decided that anyone seeing him there would think what a nice young man.

They would never guess the mischievousness inside. I just had to paint it. I wanted to call it Waiting On a Woman but figured that was copyrighted or something.

Farm Life

Sometimes in the country colors can play tricks on you. What seems just plain and

ordinary is really outstanding. This is what a day is when you live on a farm. This is an everyday

part of life. Farm Life.

Radish Rumble

I love radishes. They taste good, they look good and they are wonderful to paint.

Sometimes red is the hardest color to photograph. This is one of those times.

Chillin

Just sittin here chillin. I know I should get up and do something but I just don't

really want to. I see other bears out there catchin fish or tryin to get something good to eat

but I have figured out that if I don't want to.....They will bringme something just as good.

Why should I wast all of that energy? Chillin... that is what I call fun.

Ok! I must confess that it is painting animals that makes me most happy. I have

a sense of well being as I hold that brush in my hand and then the canvas sings as I paint.

Anyone else feel like that?

All I Need Is Love

I used to live in a culvert by the side of the road. I was dirty and shaggy with matted hair

and a cold nose. I went hungry a lot and shivered in the rain but then one day I was

lucky enough to be spotted by animal control. I was very afraid when they caught me but soon

realized that not all people are bad. They bathed me and gave me food they brushed my hair

and made sure that I was warm. I remember when I thought I was alone in the world and I could

handle it all but that was long ago before I realized that All I Need Is Love.

Sniffing It Out

Don't bother me.....I smell something. I know I am suppose to be on the

leash but nature calls but not like you think. I really do smell something. If you

will just give me a little time I will get to it. The scent is familiar...I bow my nose to the ground

to get a better whiff..........Oh foot what I

smell is just that crazy cat...My skills are much to keen to waste on a stupid cat.

If I Had An Apple

If I had an apple I would not have had that ice cream I just ate.

I do recommend the strawberry parfait at Wendy's. Yumm...

apples are wonderful. I hope I can climb back on the wagon tomorrow.

I will let you know.
