Work in Progress


I've been working on these eagles for awhile now, just don't seem to get the time to finish them off yet. This is done on suede board with pastels.

First Pastel

This is my first attempt at pastels. So much fun! I loved doing this little tiger cub. It's done on 11 X 14 velour paper. It didn't last long. My neighbor got a cute birthday present. She'd been after some artwork from me and I thought she would enjoy this one.


Mother's Love


This one was painted on Roc Lon fabric. It was done in oils with an acrylic base. From an online class with Gisele Grenier.

Gypsy at Webster Falls

Here's my dog Gypsy. This is a big canvas and done in acrylics. Was a lot of fun to do. And the painting won a contest sponsored by Art By Nature.

This is Sasha

This is my little Border Collie, Sasha. I painted her on a shamois and mounted it within an embroidery hoop. The background was done in acrylics and the dog in oils.

Killian in the Snow

This dogs name was Killian but it looks just like my Gypsy dog. This was done in oils. I enjoyed doing the faux frame in the wood tone.

Another Pet Portrait

This is a little Cocker Spaniel named Shilo. She was done in oils.

First Pet Portrait

I worked on some pet portraits in various mediums. This dog's name was Buddy. This is done in acrylics.
