My little pony

my little pony

This is a graphite drawing. 9 by 12

My daughter used to love horses and of course we had to buy her a white one. She loved it and named it Rosie, Her pedigree name was "Ta Sterling Rose" because she seem to have a lavender case to her coat and resembled a lavender rose. But that was a bit to hoytie toytie for us so we shorten it down to Rosie. Amy was in Four H for a few years with her horse and believe it or not goats. Yes I said goats, she raised a baby goat had it bred and even sold it at market, which is a requirement. Of course boys came next and bye bye horse.

Memories in the mist

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

This painting is 7.5 by 11 inches and was painted today. I was thinking about how beautiful the Pacific Northwest really is and how the mist rolls along over the lakes and rivers. I haven't been out west for a few years but I have a definite connection to that part of the country. This is for sale for $40.00 the photo could be a little better, I took it while the paint was still wet and you can see a shadow right down the middle where the paper rolled a bit. I don't tape down my paper usually and I just allow it to do whatever it does. When its dry, I will flatten out the painting by placing it under a ton of books.
