"Fruit of the Loon"

 

Spotted this colorful bowl of fruit at Kroger's the other day and I knew

 it would make for an interesting painting. I love painting food!

"DaVinci's Diving Suit"

 

There was a fascinating exhibit at the Henry Ford Museum about the inventions that Leonardo DaVinci conceived. Most of them were way ahead of their time and it wouldn't be until several hundred years later that they were actually made. This is one of them. What an amazing mind. 

"Full Blown Half Dome"

Another mountainscape done in watercolors.

 

"Fossil #11-15"

 

"London Door Prize"

Captured this pretty scene while in England last Fall. 

 

"Venice Blues"

I don't think there's anything more magical that nighttime in Venice. 

 

"Undercover Cat"

Laundry day is my cat Lizzie's favorite day of the week. After I dump my load of clothes and towels out on the bed, she loves to bury herself under the warm clothes and take a nice long nap. 

Here she is, poking her head out. 

 

"Merry Olde #5"

 

Obviously the fifth one in the series. 

"Fossils #6-#10"

 

"Fossils #1-#5"

 

I've been fascinated by fossils since I was a kid. I still have a box of them somewhere around our house. 

I love doing series of paintings, so I decided I'd to one of a bunch of fossils. Here's the first installment.
