A Legend in His Own Mind

Our friend, Mark, took a photo in Metropolis, Illinois that was the inspiration for this painting. (They have a giant Superman statue there.) He graciously allowed me to use his photograph. It is in his honor that I named this painting, "A Legend in His Own Mind".















Of course, he and Craig are arguing about which one of them this painting is supposed to be a "portrait" of . . . I rest my case . . . Legends in their own minds!!!!!!!!

Purple Coneflower

Here is the latest watercolor painting . . . I began this one in May and finished in November. Whew!! The class thought I was surely going over the edge on this one . . . for a while, I thought I might, too!!

This painting was done from a photo we took at the Shiloh National Cemetery. The trip involved an overnight "Ride to Eat" with some motorcycle friends to a catfish restaurant somewhere near Shiloh, TN. It was a lovely day in May 2006. I thought the geometric patterns made by the rows of headstones was really interesting.
The next painting was done from a photograph taken by Luann Harp at another motorcycle RTE function. She took the photo at the gardens surrounding the Jack Daniel's Distillery. I thought the photo was lovely and would make a nice painting.


The last painting is of NiteStar's True Blue Moore, CGC, TT. It was done from a photo taken ringside at the 2005 ASCA Nationals, where Callie went 4th Place Altered Open Blue Merle Bitch. I was especially proud of Miss Dog that day! I titled this one "It's All About Me".
