Red White and Blue Christmas

A new Christmas Card for 2016! This was fun to do.  I painted it earlier with acrylics and the basket had sunflowers so I switched it to Gifts. I guess I will always love Bicycles!
If interested in cards for this year, let me know as soon as possible.

Picking out the tree-iPad drawing

I did this quickly last night. Normally it takes me quite a while. It was just a fun thing to draw. 

I love doing the happy little snow people. I hope you are all enjoying the real meaning of Christmas !

It is getting very close. 

Karla's Ornament

Here is another 6x6 oil Christmas Ornament. It is on the gessobord panel.

We got to go see our granddaughters new apartment, and she had a little

white tree with a few ornaments on it, and I took pictures with my phone of the blue ones. 

The Green Christmas Bike

This is another iPad drawing. I am very slow doing these but do enjoy doing them.  Guess the worse part is finding something to draw! all of my snow and Christmas paintings are just out of my head. Sometimes I just need something to look at just for reference. 

The Cowboy and his Horse

 

6x6 Oil on gessobord panel

 

I did this little guy this afternoon, using the oils that mix with water.

I am still having a hard time with the mess, and the clean up. It

is as bad as regular oils in my opinion as far as cleaning it all up.

The 6x6 panels are fun to do though because you don't get bogged down with

 a lot of stuff to paint.

In Training

Every year I have some snow people drawn that I never get time to paint, and this is another one that I found in my sketchbook, so I got it painted, and it is another one of my favorites. I see so many kids in the grocery store with their baskets along with their mom. They are so cute. I call them 'In Training' because it won't be long before they are out on their own, doing their own thing.

Heading Home-iPad Drawings

I have been working on learning to draw on the iPad.

 It is fun, but frustrating, and hard. 

 A pencil or pen is much easier!

 

 

 

 

Christmas Time-Demo

I was invited to demo for the Denver City, TX art Association, and since it is already December, I decided to do a Christmas theme. I love doing them. It is tomorrow night (Dec. 3)
I went through my old vehicle file, and picked out an old truck, then I cut away all the background, drew in a Christmas Tree and a wreath.  Here are the steps.

Bicycle for Two

I have such fun doing new snow people, Plus I love bikes and am always looking for a way to use them someway.  This is about two girl friends having fun during the holidays!

Our Gift To Him

It is time to start doing some new snow Christmas cards. This is called ' Our Gift To Him'

Ornament # 3-Nativity

This is my third try.  I am still very messy with the paint and don't like that part. Hopefully I will learn

 How to handle it and be neater! 

This is 6x6 on gessobord.  $50.00. If interested ,contact me.

Christmas Ornament 2

Today I did my second oil painting. 6x6 on gessobord. I think it looks better. I want more brush strokes and softness, instead of just hard lines. I am really liking the gessobord. 

This is for sale too if interested email me. 

 

Snowed In

I couldn't have all these Christmas paintings with out having a tractor!
I love to hear them coming and going in the driveway by the house.
 For some reason, it is a comforting sound. I will miss it if we ever leave the farm!
There is nothing like a John Deere!  I have spent many hours riding on one with
Ken after we got married.

The Wisemen

This is only a couple of years old. It is a larger painting than the snow kids.It is also done in a different manner, even though it is watercolor.

The Choir Program

This is another one of my favorites. It is also older.

Feliz Navidad

This Painting is older too.I did it for our hired farm hand and his family.

Joy to the World

Joy to the World, the Lord is come, Let Earth receive her King!

Christmas Day is nearly here!

The Couple

The Reese Family
