Sometimes there is nothing better than painting sunflowers, for some reason my brush strokes become even more loose, just about dancing actually.

I don't think I could ever grow tired of painting robins.  How do those thin little legs hold up such ample bodies?

I was sitting on the couch yesterday and Gracie just kept gazing at me, I finally took her picture and had to paint her again today. I usually leave the background quite simple but decided to add our persian rug. Really loose strokes and limited palette.

This is my Gracie, she is a rescue dog who has been with us since she was one, she is almost 12 and still runs in the bush for miles most days with my husband and our other rescue dog Charlie.  I took this photo a few days ago and was asked by my husband to paint her so he could hang the painting in his office.  It was such a treat to paint  because the entire time I kept thinking of how very sweet she is and what a wonderful addition to our family she is.

I didn't really know where to start with this painting, so many rose petals, deciding which to highlight, or which to leave out. I just dove in and eventually roses emerged.

I like that this cow fills the canvas, sometimes it seems more effective.  Lots of oranges and golds with hints of pink...enjoyed painting him.
