Molcajete Madness!

"Three Pairs and a Pom"

This little piggy just can't stay away from the market! This time he's with his friend Mudhead from the Southwest, I hear they caused quiet a stir strolling down the stands! ha ha ;0)

So as you can see, we have a new computer! Yey and Ug! It's not all up to speed but we are finally online and ready to post. More to come soon!

Our Poor Computer!

Our little computer caught a virus that wiped pretty much everything out! :0( As soon as we get it back up and running I'll have some new things to show and tell!

Thanks for visiting and I hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday season.

My work space

It's been a very busy October but I'm still working and can't wait to show you some new paintings! (here I am painting at Canapo Gallery)

Here's some pictures of my studio. . and by that I mean the corner of the kitchen room where I work my magic :0) You might recognize my brush holders from the painting "I Scream!" Love those things! especially when they're filled with strawberry ice cream and lots of chocolate sauce!

Yup! That's an ice tray I use for my colors :0)

I love what you can do with yellow, pink and purple!

Eh Kneek

"Eh Kneek" 20"x 14" Watercolor

A big thank you to my Chumash sister Pink Cloud for the name of this new painting! Eh Kneek pronounced eh-nee-k means blossom and truly fits this wonderful and spirited young lady. To say that she is a bundle of energy is a big understatement! Sleep is barely in her vocabulary and there's no such thing as sitting still. Even so, I knew there's a calm inside of her somewhere and that's what I was able to see the day I asked her to try on this headdress. There's something about traditions that bring up a certain quality in people. After all the America's Next Top Model posing and peace signs and double thumbs up, I had her breath in the evening light and voila, there she was blossoming into a soon to be teen.
