'A Day Late & A Dollar Short'

Day 115 'A Day Late & A Dollar Short' Yesterday was Memorial Day, but there was no time to paint.... so, today's painting is in honor of Memorial Day and all of the men and women who have gone to fight for us, as well as the troops that are there right now. It is certainly an honorable day that we are proud to wave our flags.................this painting started out as a monotype original print, but alot of the paint did not want to budge, so I decided to finish it by painting on the paper directly. I like the effect of the mixed media...... A perfect picnic setting on Memorial Day! Enjoy for 1 less $......*SOLD 'A Day Late & A Dollar Short' 8"x10" Acrylic Monotype Original

'Ghost Clouds'

Day 114 'Ghost Clouds' Here is the 5th and final Monotype in the series of monotypes that I did.... This is the ghost' which is actually the same painting on the carrier, but as the 4th 'Pink & Stormy Clouds', but it is the second print... I actually like this one better. What do you think? It does not have as much panache, but it has a wonderful feel to it...... The 2nd pull of a monotype is called the Ghost because it lasts for a long long time. Enjoy!!!!!!!!

'It's 5 O'clock Somewhere Again'

Day 112... 'It's 5 O'clock Somewhere Again'....I had the pleasure of painting this painting again, somewhat different, for a birthday present. The first painting, Day 98 had sold, and the birthday girl really liked this painting.... so, I was commissioned to paint it again and really enjoyed it..... the painting and the cocktails!.... The lesson learned here is that any painting on my blog which is sold, could always be re-created as an original or a print. An original would never be exactly the same, but it would be a one of a kind. *SOLD Happy Birthday Maria!..................

'Litchfield Daffodils'

Day 111 'Litchfield Daffodils' ........There is a wonderful place in Litchfield, Connecticut that people flock to in the Springtime. They go to see the daffodils...... lots and lots of daffodils spread out with beautiful stone walls and budding trees to create a beautiful landscape. I was commissioned to paint this wonderful view and I thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to be immersed in daffodils. The only thing missing was the scent. Enjoy! *SOLD
