PAINT PARTY FRIDAY AND I HAVE A NEW GREAT GRANDBABY

Hi Everyone!

NEWS NEWS NEWS
Had to add this to my PPF post
Cause you just can't beat this kind of art
Just a few minutes ago my Son phoned and sent these photos I have my first great granddaughter


My son Troy and granddaughter Koral Marie


Koral Marie and Eva Marie

 
Yeahhh it is Paint Party Friday. I so look forward to this part of my week.  There seems to be an excitement in my spirit to see what all the artists have been working on. This party also gives me a place to show what I have been working on as well. It is so much fun for me to have started painting again after a life time of NOT painting. I am relearning some basics, remembering what my Nan taught me and learning some new ideas from great friends. So happy Paint Party Friday to all who join in and to those who come by to see what it is all about. A huge thank you to Eva and Kristin for taking time each week to host this wonderful event.

This week I have two piece. Both acrylic on canvas.
Yeah I know, I need to hide my red paint. LOL

This is a small canvas 8x10"



                                                   This canvas is 24x36" It began like this








And ended up here. I might do a few more things to it but this is where I am with it.


 Wishing everyone a happy weekend

Congratulations to your new granddaughter!! Grandchildren are the light of our lifes. Interesting to hear, that you have not been painting in a long time. The same has been with me, I painted from childhoos, but then cut it away totally in 30 years surely. Now I am learning so much I can. Have a sweet time with your family now! Oh, I forgot to tell, that your paintings are great, I like the last one.

Congratulations! A great granddaughter-wow! I like both your red paintings. The 2nd one is really intriguing the way the eye is drawn into the vortex along with all the little yellow flecks-great movement and energy in it.

Ilona Heimböckel said...

I love your tree-painting! And am curious about the second painting :-)
And I love red, no reason to hide it! :D
Happy PPF and happy weekend!

Thanks for sharing such good news.
I like your tree with the red, quite unusual, and your interesting whirlpool piece, another different idea.

Both paintings are very cool (or hot, LOL). The tree trunk has nice detail & the black hole is pulling me in! Have a great weekend!

Lovely to see your new grandchild! You must be over the moon. I find both your paintings intriguing. The tunnel like one makes me think of myself traveling inside the human body or in outer space. Happy PPF
