Crow Envy 2


 I remodeled my Crow Envy that i painted a couple of year ago for the Crow Show at the Spirit room.  They needed something added.  My friend Marcy suggested hats and i went for it.  also redid the background. 

  i thought about calling them Jim and Donald Crow.  but i opted not to..   eek

Wonky Waters


 Started out as something to do while at the weekly get together at the Hjemkomst.  i sketched the boats off my phone photo of Nova Scotia painting.   tried to keep it watery and loose.. "Good Luck with that Judi.."

"No Pancakes For You !"

 

Oh my, this was fun.  Saw a photo of Edith Bunker on a YouTube reel, sitting in my kitchen from the 70's.  I sketched her body language and went crazy with the colors i remember from that era.  yes, we had  avocado and gold appliances and BR fixtures in our first house.  and table cloths and curtains..

Green is the Chair


 My small bird paintings have not flown out into the world..  i painted this over Dad Bird.  Chair is really green.  in fact, i made scrambled eggs for lunch today and there was a green speck in it.. Spinach?? no.  Broccoli?  no, no.  It was a bit of sap green acrylic from under my fingernails..

Gnome with grass and weeds

 

this is weird...  i painted this gnome a couple of years ago, during my gnome period..  Showed it around in shows, and at G4..   ANYWAY, today i added the grass and the weed.  Since he already had the mushroom..   He is probably high.   teehee.

Casino Gals with new frame


 Brought this favorite watercolor out of hiding .. the frame was white and kinda ugly.  I mixed up some acrylic to match some of the greens in the painting and went for it.  .  I know i have always insisted that the frame doesn't count in the scheme of things, but this was fun.

MY Nova Scotia

Our theme for Feb at G4 is Bucket List.  Since my bucket list has a hole in the bottom, i chose Nova Scotia because it's been on Carl and my list forever and we didn't get there.  i googled a lot of paintings and photos of NS and sketched some of the buildings and boats that apparently are in Peggy's Cove.  Love the primary colors.  
 photo isn't very good 'cause i framed it b/4 i took the photo..   FORGETFUL is the word of the day..
