Connoisseur's Collection
acrylic and collage on wood
SOLD
I love using little scraps of paper to add interest to a piece. It adds the element of the unexpected. I've been very prolific lately, in order to restock after good sale days. I think the economy is beginning to recover!

Remember Toonses, the driving cat from Saturday Night Live? Here's my homage to that cool cat!
My daughter's high school graduation was last night. We had a ton of people and fun and love and food flowing through our house afterwards, so I thought this painting was appropriate. We are truly blessed and so very proud of our little Dixie Star. She's all grown up and heading off to Anderson University in the Fall.

Sun Box
14 x 10 x 3.5 inches
acrylic on wood wine box
SOLD
I found this wine box made of wood and decided to make it beautiful. It would make a good jewelry box. I've always loved things with lids since I was a kid, so painting this was a trip! It's Memorial Day weekend, so it promises to be busy here in Myrtle Beach. Hope you all are having fun wherever you are!

Sometimes it is good to be reminded of all the things we strive for in life. None of them would be possible without grace.

We had a wonderful time in Richmond at Arts in the Park this past weekend. Lots of art went home with new adopted families, and we got to make people smile and laugh a little through the heat. It's a blessing.

Garland of Grace

SOLD
I love the way "The Message Bible" translates certain scriptures. It makes them simple. Gotta love that. This is one that strikes my fancy.
I once read about a woman seeing a message sprawled on a Paris sidewalk. It said, "The city of Paris is full of beautiful mysteries, and you are one of them." I never forgot that story. I began to think how wonderful it would be to spread love and joy by writing beautiful messages on sidewalks with chalk. That idea has evolved into the original poetry I often include on my art, and is the reason I call myself “The Sidewalk Chalk Prophet.”
The most an aritst can do through their work is say, "Let me show you what I have seen, what I have loved, and perhaps you will see it and love it too." ~Annie Bevan
