MomBeard

The latest drawing from my almost 6 year old. Please note the name on the flag reads "MOM BEARD". (I hope he's doing a take-off on Pirate Blackbeard, and not hinting that his mom might need to shave....)

Origami Mobile

I just finished putting together this mobile for my kid's school fundraiser/silent auction.  Each student made an origami crane using map paper, and then I strung them with abalone and white rock beads on driftwood.  I'm happy with how it turned out.  (Now, hopefully someone will bid high for it!)

Some Reasons I Love Key West

Red Berries in Snow

Live

Kinder Sailors

I just finished putting together this set for my kids' upcoming school fundraiser and silent auction.  24 kinder kids created a sailboat out of construction paper, and  I created a paint and collage ocean scene to float the boats in.  Hope we can raise lots of money for the kiddos.

Beautiful song, Beautiful voice

It's cold and rainy here.  Makes a person want for warm, lazy, poolside summer days. 

Loved these photo images from BlueSkyClouds on Etsy.

Flower, Three Ways

Happy Valentine's Day.

Hey, Sailor

I do love a man in uniform. 
"Little Sailor" - 8x10, Mixed Media

Hold On

I have such a weakness for cute little boys and puppy dogs.

Little Red

"Little Red" - So, I just realized the 10x10 panel I painted this on won't fit into my 8x10 scanner bed without cropping out something. This one is 10x10 in real life. Just pretend there's more sky and foreground...
