Hold On...This Is Going To Hurt Like Hell




I am keeping a journal of sorts. Artwork rather than a written journal. A way of dealing with the grief. Eventually I hope to publish a book called "In My Shoes" A solo journey through grief. Notice......"through" grief. Hoping to emerge on the other side.

Hold On..........Hold On this is going to hurt like hell!

Working Class America..The Layer Beneath "Bob"




I live in a lakefront resort community, surrounded by wealth both old and new. This painting is the first in a series about the hard workers that support the wants and needs of the wealthy in our community and beyond. The layer beneath. This is Bob, a hard working carpenter by trade. Rugged, gentle.

Paralized




Its Valentines Day. 2/14/2012. Hard day for me.


This is a quick study that reflects my mood some days since Kevin has passed. Can't speak, can't breathe, can't move.


Paralized.

Waiting for a Cookie!



This is Bella. I know two Bellas, both chocolate labs. Very hard to paint..........all that brown!

Family Portrait - Henry, Albert, Brutus



I painted this family portrait for my friend Douglas. I know these dogs so it was a bit easier to paint than some. Look like angels don't they?

Imps actually.
