Saguaro Cactus and Sunset

Those of you that know me, know I’ve lived in the southwest for a number of years…make that, many years. So it should not come as a surprise when I tell you I think about it from time to time. After all, I spent most of my life there as of yet. I had married twice, and buried one husband. I had my two son’s there. I still have family there.  Anyway, prior to painting this, and during I was thinking about the very large Saguaro Cactus. I hope you like it.

Southwestern Desert

Having had lived in the southwest for most of my life, I was having some fond memories of the beautiful desert I had once resided. I thought,  “A painting of my memory of it is  in order.”

Mountain Retreat

When hiking through the mountain it’s always an extra special day when one comes across a mountain pond to relax by…I know where to take the fishing pole next time. But for now, just studying the scene of the photo I took of it to create a painting will suffice.

Tree Swing

Just left of our front yard down the bank area sets these two trees. I had tried in the past to get my husband to put up a swing, but he was not game to the idea. I still envision a swing hanging off that one branch of the tree on the left. So I thought I would paint my swing to have for as long as time keeps my painting.

Summer Glow

Cape Hatteras Sunrise

Looking through the pictures I took at Cape Hatter Island this year, I had found some beautiful sunrise shots. Being drawn in by the most brightest I had decided to recreate one for my painting portfolio.

Forest Edge

One of the most beautiful things I find when it rains, is the fog that settles in my yard at times. And when I gaze  through my living room window to the darkest part of my wooded yard and see the light at the other end if there is enough moon light.

Digital Painting

Autumn Splendor

Being that it’s not much of a winter this year… More like Autumn, or as some would say,  Fall, except for the colors of course. I decided to do a painting of a tree full of colorful leaves, blowing onto the ground by the waterside.

Digital Painting

Back Yard Tree Tops

This is a painting of the tree tops on my property as the clouds were rolling in the middle of the afternoon, before it began to rain that evening.

Castaway

Was having a phone chat with one of my friends on the Island a few days back..They had had a nice, but cold day…Not news, I hate to tell ya.

So about this painting…I’m really not happy with is as I am not with so many of my ocean type paintings. I have a few I like but this one is not at the top of the list. None the less, it was my first try at painting the ocean with digital painting.

Afternoon Grazing

I created this painting because so many people in our area have cows on their land. Some are for just miking and some are for, well you know…We all gotta go sometime or other.
