New Youtube video!!

Here is my latest video on Youtube of my painting titled "Paradise". I hope you enjoy it.

Yummy Doughnuts

I made these doughnuts especially for my daughter since she has food allergies and can't eat at Krispy Kreme or Dunkin Doughnuts. This started out as biscuit dough, which I used a bottle cap to make a hole in the center, then fried it for about 30 seconds on each side. Once they cooled I added a little glaze to them. The kids ate them up in minutes.

P. S. At the top of the plate are the doughnut holes.

"Eden" is complete

I finally completed this painting after putting it aside to figure out what finishing touches I would add to the painting. Hopefully I will be complete editing the demo of this painting video this week so I can upload onto Youtube. A print will be available this week in my shop.

Finished Painting

Happy Friday everyone! Man is it sure getting hot here in Hotlanta.

I wanted to show you my finished painting that I started last week. It was such a tough decision, because you guys gave such great suggestions. I decided to name it "Deeply Rooted", as suggested by Pocket Full of Prettys. Pocket, I will send you a print for helping me decide the title. I was pleased with the finished result and plan to create another with this similiar technique.

Sneak Peek - Painting in Progress

step #1 -Laying in the background color to my painting.

step #2 -Adding the grass with a cross hatch approach.

step #3 - Painting the foliage in the tree.

The toughest part for me after completing the painting is titling the piece. Sometime it comes to me quickly, other times I can't think of a thing. This image definately reflects my Christian faith and the tree represents having a firm foundation. Help me come up with a name! If I pick your title I will send you a prize.

New Bird with an Attitude

I've got another little bird to show you and he also has a very bad disposition, but he is super cute.

Imagekind Fine Art Prints

I found this great site on Natasha Westcoat's website called Imagekind. The site is owned by Cafepress but offers on demand prints on paper, posters and prints on canvas. The site features artist and photographers original work. I decided to give the site a try with my images. I am featuring my music themed pieces first and will be adding new images regularly.
