And yet another painting from a past sister's day. This was different and fun.  I love the use of color.

Rocky Outcrop

This little painting, plain and simple, makes me feel like I'm standing on the rock in the foreground and flying a kite. Perhaps there should be a kite in the picture. Maybe next time there will be. 
I'm starting to dabble more and more into color. It just feels right for me.

The harder the wind blows, the higher your kite will fly.

Old Barn

This was fun to paint. I enjoyed painting the trees and bushes as I love to paint the details.

This is a painting that was started a long time ago and finished on this past sister's day. (Lovin' sister's day)! It was so good to finally finish this one. It sat on my wall collecting dust and begging to be finished.

The third painting from sister's day. What a day it was! I'm looking forward to the next one!

Live so that when other people think of integrity, enthusiasm, commitment, and caring, they think of you.

This is another painting from sister's day, my favorite day of the week. Love my sista to pieces.  To pieces I tells ya!

Beautiful Beach At Sunset

This is a painting from "sister's day" where my beautiful sister and I spent the day painting together.  In this case it was 2 days. I cherish our time together.  Lots of laughs, and fun, and homemade pot pie.  
I paint with a brush and my sister paints with a palette knife.  It's fun to see how the same painting turns out with two different painting methods. Her paintings are so beautiful.
