Rex asked I would paint this cute image of his friends two dogs as a gift for her. The image captured the moment when the doggie on the right finally accepted the newer doggie on the left in to the family. Awe!

This beautiful view is what you will see if you go all the way to the end of Commercial Street in Provincetown on Cape Cod. It's off of Provine Lands Road and it's part dunes, part marsh, part ocean, and part beach. In the distance you can see the Long Point Light Station.

I'm off and running with my paintings for the red inn season which opens in April. My goal is to have 5 new paintings by the time they open their doors. We are headed down (up?) to Provincetown this coming weekend and I hope to get some more inspiration.

Wish me luck!

What a pretty kitty

The third and final cat portrait for my friend Danielle.

P.K. is short for pretty kitty and what a pretty kitty he was. He passed away several years ago but still a beloved pet. He looked a lot like my cat Skippy who owned me for 17 years until he had to be put down back in 2001. I did acrylic painting of him several years ago. You can see that painting by clicking here.

Here is all 3 of the paintings together. I decided to give them all a consistent blue background since they will be hung all together along with Paprika whose portrait you can see below.

This is Lulu, the second cat that my friend Danielle asked me to paint for her. She has such beautiful eyes, don't you think? They are looking right at you asking for treats.
