Pickin' Up Chicks, 8x10, oil on primed foam board

What can I say? I like chickens! And cows.

Another One, 8x10, oil on primed MDF board

Finally I think I'm back on track - hence a tractor. Not really. This is a little plein air that worked in spite of having forgotten half my equipment. But my husband, who used to be a farmer, thinks its good. Actually, he's still a farmer, he just doesn't have a farm.

On ebay tonight. Thanks!

Mom's Little One, 8x10, oil on linen panel

This is from earlier this spring. The expression on the mare's face is my favorite part.

More plein air painting today. Then Deer Creek Days this weekend. Fun,fun, fun!

Cows In The Pasture, 8x10, oil on linen panel

Well, the Wyoming Plein Air event is in full swing. Lots of outdoor painting. But this was painted in the studio. My favorite part of this painting is the cute cow lying down. She looks like she's hiding, which I know she isn't, but still its too cute!

This painting is on ebay now. Thanks!

At The Foot Of The Mountain, 8x10 oil on canvas panel

Its been a while since I posted. This is the crazy time of the year for me. Three shows on 2 weekends and all three involving painting at each place - quick draws and demos. Its lots of fun, but my brain gets a little mushy! And of course needing new paintings for each one. The Wyoming Plein Air Event kicks off Sunday the 1st and runs for 2 weeks. Then Deer Creek Days is the weekend of the 6th and 7th. And the Douglas Invitational Art Show and Sale is the 13th, 14th and 15th. Whew! So, I'll be posting as often as I can, hopefully with photos from each event. Hope you're having a great summer!

Last Light, 10x8, oil on linen panel

First light and last light are so unique to their place in the day. So full of hope and promise . . . The deer always come down to drink at these times. And so too, do we need to come and drink deeply of the Lord and His Spirit and Word. Let the water of the Word wash you clean from the dust of the day. Let His Spirit refresh your soul before you hit the pillow. Let Him fill you with His strength and wisdom before you begin the new day . . . drink deeply. Let him who thirsts come.

Sweet Clover Breakfast, 8x10, oil on panel

A little plein air of early morning cows. Yes, more cows, my favorite!

One Little Cow, 8x10, oil on linen panel

Had to paint this cutie! Cows just make me smile. Someday maybe I'll have one of my own . . .

Cool Drink On A Hot Day, 11x14, oil on linen panel

These cows were out back of our place. I wanted to paint outside but it was far too windy that day, so I painted them from the studio window.

Spring Run-off, 9x12, oil on linen panel

We had a lot of rain this spring. This is the creek out back of my house when it was over it's banks for a week or so. It was really pretty actually. Most of the year we don't see the water in it, but we sure have this year!

Autumn Shadows, 8x10, oil on linen panel

A fun little scene to paint. I like working with these colors. I've been plein airing it for a week now and am already looking forward to the varied color of our grasses as the summer progresses.
