christmas ornaments 2008

i have been busy creating holiday ornaments. i have always loved christmas, and about 15 years ago i started to make ornaments. every year i make a new batch and each year they seem to be just a bit different...

here are a few of this years collection!

where does one begin?

i suppose i will start with today.

today...

today i am posting my favorite (recent) painting , doris wright liked to borrow nancy's clothes.

i should begin by saying i never (that is right... never) have a plan when i start a piece. they just happen. * the funny thing about this painting is that it has both my grandmothers name (doris), and my mom's name (nancy) in it. i didn't know this until i was virtually done with the piece. and because of this... i couldn't sell it. so it now hangs on my mother's bedroom wall. it seemed only fitting.
