butterly wing flower


this fleur is made of butterfly wings!
It's collaged on top of a letter written partly in Chinese from my son, sent from Taiwan years ago....which I then marbled.

Let Your Light Shine


This is a painting made per request of my office mates, who wanted something to decorate our new office. I was interested in doing a landscape featuring roots of a tree, but when my father visited and saw all the beautiful clouds in our beautiful wall of windows, he suggested I do a painting of clouds. So, here we have a cloud tree.
There are lots of written messages in this painting as well, which explains the title. I'm not sure this painting is finished yet. But I'm posting it today bec it's Candace's bday!

Valse Brilliante



This is a tiny canvas! Maybe 3" square, maybe not quite that. And I know, a bit hard to see. I'm having trouble getting a close up shot of it....
Anyhow, it's collaged with piano music, birthday candles and a chinese fortune; painted and presented on a dog house shingle.

door collage


I am deleting yesterday's blog because a suspect comment was posted, and I didn't know how to delete it; I thought it might be a virus, and didn't want to risk anyone being infected.
So, here is yesterdays, again; a cheerful collage over a small box......
cheers!

Independence


OK, folks; here is my 4th of July painting. Actually, the only thing I painted on the 4th was the house! But I'm back in full swing.
This is acrylic over watercolor.
Cheers!

Here is a little photo collage of myself and 2 sisters, toasting at my son's wedding in NZ. They surround me with their love and celebration.
Cheers!
