BEACH BABIE'S

9"x12"
oil painting on canvas.
Who doesn't love summer at the beach? Just the thought of it makes me smile.Lots of fun memories racing the little waves and building all manner of things in the sand (mostly we dug big holes and let them fill up with sea water) with shells and drift wood. Looking for shells, sea glass, playing in tide pools and never wanting summer to end!

BIRDS on TRAYS


Little metal trays painted in oil with birds and touched with gold. 6 1/2" x 5 1/2".
I am always looking for a new support to paint on. I found these little trays and thought these would be so fun to paint on. These are the first of 5 until I find more trays!!
I'd like to give my self the credit for the idea of trays but it was my friend Vicki Greene who said "how about painting your birds on trays "??
Love input! Thanks Vicki!!

BIRDS




New birds this morning!! These little birds are 3"x 2" and that varies just a bit. They are made of porcelain clay,one of a kind, all hand built and painted with mat glazes that are fired into the clay. All 3 birds are SOLD!!!

CROW

Made of earthenware red clay this is a new crow taken out of the kiln yesterday. He has an acorn in his beak. He is 4"x 11"long . I have another crow in the firing right now. I can't wait to see him, he is a bit skulkier than this one. I'll post him as soon as he's finished!
SOLD!!

WHEN PIGS FLY!!

Just pulled this little piggy from the kiln yesterday. I love the white glaze.He is 8.5"x4.5". I'm working on birds next, little birds but they will be painted . Back to working with porcelain after working with the earthenware clay. It's all fun!
