#14 of 30! SOLD
Painting #14, Butterfly #2, and isn't the red one beautiful! Again, maybe someone could help me with the species, but until I have a more formal name, this one is......"Red Butterfly"!

#13 of 30! SOLD
This is the first of a series of three butterflies I think I will do. I wish I knew the species and all that stuff about butterflies, but I don't, just that I think they are pretty. Therefore, the very technical name of this one is......."Pretty Butterfly"........now you can't wait to hear the names of the next two, right?

A little diversion from what what I have been posting. Today is a pet portrait of my now one year old lab puppy, Kasay. When the photo for this one was taken she was only about 10 weeks old and looked like she was posing for the camera! I have been wanting to paint this and finally got it started last week. As with most of my work, I like to pop a little color in to give a more contemporary look to the portrait.

This was from a photo given to me by a friend of a beautiful snowfall in Maine. I'm not sure what kind of tree this is, maybe someone can tell me, but I just love the twists and turns in it. So much character, and of course I had to add my colorful twist to it!

My last flower from my little backyard series! When we moved into our home we already had a rose garden out back. I had never had roses before and was very excited. At first I thought for sure I could take care of them, but quickly realized I did not have the green thumb. Guess I should have already known that from the dead houseplants! Now I have a "Rose Guy" that gets all the credit for doing the proper things to create these beauties. (Bet he can't paint them though!) Enjoy!

Here is another flower from my backyard! I have Camellias that bloom in the Spring and the Fall, and this one lasted well into December.

I took some pictures in the Fall of flowers in by backyard and just discovered them in my camera a few days ago while photographing another painting! Nice surprise.....and just what I needed for today's challenge painting.
