A Daily Tree 1

This painting was created on my Android phone using Sketch Lover.  It is titled - Autumn Birch Day 1.  It is the first of a series of trees I will be creating using various mediums to fulfill my self-challenge of creating an art piece a day for 30 days.  The challenge is titled - Daily Tree.  Stay with me as I embark on this adventure to improve my skills as an artist and I truly hope you enjoy the pieces I create.

VROOM VROOM Acrylic on Canvas SOLD










SOLD
VROOM
It’s her birthday
She tells you she is this many
And she holds up four fingers.
She is so very excited because
Today, you see,
Bright
And shiny
And red,
She got her first set of wheels
Three if you’re counting.
She places herself carefully on the seat
Gets an arm wrestler’s hold on the grips
Places her feet strategically on the pedals
And off she goes
Traveling from 0 to 3.2 in 5 seconds
Her braids flying straight back behind her
Her puppy chasing with tongue lolling
She is feeling the need
The need
For speed

DIVERSITY OF TEXAS 16 x 20 Acrylic 3 Dimesional on canvas board



This Piece is on display for the Membership Show at The Plano Centre until the end of February 2012.  The theme is "What I Love About Texas"
My description that went along with this piece is ... From the High Plains to the Alamo; from the Rio Grande to the Gulf Coast, the diversity of TEXAS will keep you busy.  I first came to TEXAS 20 years ago for a training class.  For three weeks, the class learned insurance by day and Tex-Mex cuisine by night.  I had never tasted better.  It wasn’t until 2003 that I finally moved here with a native Texan and began to enjoy all the wonders of TEXAS.  I’ve been to the beaches on the Gulf Coast, to the caverns near San Antonio.  I have visited the Hill Country vicariously through the stories of a friend who goes there every year for an artist’s retreat.  Ahhhh the diversity of TEXAS, mountains, beaches, desert, cactus, caverns, guacamole and Cowboys – what more could you want.
