I think I would be a little scared.

This one is up on Etsy now.  It is called "Girls Night".  I remember a couple witches I painted last year looked like me and my sisters AFTER a girls night.  They were not too pretty.   Hee hee

The one below is a little 4X4 called "Mittens".  I will try to get this one on etsy tomorrow.

Can you tell the kids are back in school?  I am posting again so soon.  Just finished this new painting, "Tennis Anyone"  It is on Etsy right now.  I LOVE vintage paint by numbers, so that is kind of the look I am going for here.

After a long summer, I am back to trying to paint.  My creative juices are not really flowing yet so whenever that happens I rather paint something I can see rather than something I imagine.  I like to get out the old photo albums to do this.  The first one is an old photo that I kind of tweaked to make interesting.  I call it "Pink Dress" and it is up on Etsy now.
 The second one I will just keep.  It is also of an old photo.  I find that I enjoy painting a subject more and more.

I am very fond of the colors in this one.  I am pretty sure these were the colors of my Grandparent's bedroom when I was a little girl in the 70's.  And I wouldn't doubt that the bedroom was decorated way before I came around.  I still remember how important a phone call could be.  Now with all the computers and endless cell phones does it still feel the same? This painting is up on Etsy.

I finally had time to paint! These are all on Etsy. After painting the big Faire painting, I was pretty tired.  I asked Rose to count how many faces were on that one.  When she told me 14!  I was like, holy cow, no wonder I am tired!  I don't think I will do that many for a long time.  It was so nice just doing one face in"Still of the Night"  Ahhh, that was actually enjoyable. I never did fill you all in on the cat situation, those of you who were around at the beginning of the year.  They are getting along now for the most part.  I came across this show called "Cat from Hell" and I listened to everything the 'Cat Daddy' said on there.  I think basically he was fighting Tamale for the Master Bedroom.  He knew it was off limits to him and he knew that was where the kings of the pride slept and he wanted in.  As soon as I opened all doors the tension between them has been reduced to a minimum.  He feels like part of the pride and no longer fights her.  He, Butter is his name, is very sweet to her now.  She still does not care for him though.
