Got the canvas finished, for now, until the paint cures and I find anything I missed. 
Have not had a chance to work on the digital painting that I really needed to work on this weekend.  Maybe I’ll have a little time after dinner and before True Blood comes on.  Here’s hoping.

This post is Testing Desktop Blog Application

Trying an application called Post2Blog - a desktop blogging client for Windows from Bytescout.

This next image is by the wonderful Belinda Higgins! What an honor to be able to paint for her. This final image is actually 2 images merged. The mom of the little girl liked the background, but wanted a different pose, so Belinda sent me both and I worked my magic. I plan to paint the original of the other pose just because I think it's so perfect!  :)

These next 2 images are by the amazing Elizabeth Smith! Most may know her as Libbie Wicket these days, that's her studio name now.  :) Love her work!

This last image is by Treasured Images Photography. Beautiful classic pose and feel. Love it!

Catching up on posting some of my most recent paintings, or, most recent since I last blogged a painting back in February.  Sorry about that, I'm trying to be better about blogging now.  :)
So here are 8 paintings that I've done since Feb.  I'm going to break them up into 4 per post so that they're not overwhelming.  :) These first 4 are from a wonderful photographer named Kay Brown! She sends me some amazing images to work with.  :)

 

I'm working on a canvas today, embellishing with gel mediums and paints. The varnish is drying as we speak so I can get started. After that, I'll be working on some touch-up's on another painting for a client. May take a while on that one, I'm detailing a background that was photographed out of focus.  Hmmm.

I'll post pics of the canvas when I'm finished with it and it has had time to dry.  :)

For Technorati purposes.  :)

I finally got around to updating the blog look to match the website. I've been so busy lately I've hardly had time for myself. I'll try to share some paintings I've done since my last post soon.  :)
