Two of my favorite paintings from the past years. And one that I'm not too sure about |

 THE STILL of the NIGHT This turned out the best of any I had ever painted. The original is painted on the top of a wooden TV tray. The cottage is from a picture I saw in a book. The landscape is imaginary (or a memory from a previous life, if you believe such things) |

 MY SANTA This was my one & only portrait painting. It was inspired from a painting of Santa that my brother has. I had a blank canvas at the time & thought I'd give it a shot. Every year, it hangs proudly in the family room at Christmas time. It's just above the stairs leading into the room, and when the grandkids were little, & I carried them past the painting, I would stop & say" Ho-Ho-Ho" This year they were all too old or big for me to carry. Dec 2011. |

THE BIRDS This is a weird one- I started it around Feb. 2006 & finished it almost 2 years later- in between, the clouds must have been repainted 20 times, and the buildings a couple of times. It is what my mind's eye thinks a fishing village on the east coast would look like. If Bob Ross was right, in my world, everything is perfect- there are no mistakes, just happy little accidents! |

| And here are a few that I like as well. | ||
 This was painted on a wooden plate for Mary Thornton. |
 This was for Raemie's garden on Prince Albert Street |
 This is a wooden waste basket- I painted these for Karen's sisters in 2004- Don't know why I never took pictures of the other ones?? |
 Here's another of the wooden waste baskets. This is Peggy's. |
