http://everyonessister.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Everyone's Sister - Advice Blog. The advice and insights I have given or received. Offered with hope that it will help someone out there. Sunday, May 29, 2011. Creation or Alien Drop Off? As always, the following is my opinion offered to inspire thought, not debate. More of my thoughts on Aliens throughout History:. In the first chapter of Genesis, "The Creation Story" says clearly, that he created male and female in his image. The only children/families the Bible really follows is those made from. The E...

Everyone's Sister - Advice Blog. The advice and insights I have given or received. Offered with hope that it will help someone out there. Saturday, November 10, 2012. Vote: The Chicken or the Pig? Confused about your choices here in the title? They are not the usual party affiliations, they are not even Boston Market choices. I have been very concerned about the health and well being of my children. It's been over a year since my near death surgery and my 'letters to my kids'. I feel even more co...I'm t...

Pets To Posies: July 2011
http://petstoposies.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 30, 2011. Versions (not higher resolution) of the ones sent - very pixelated and worse than the originals. I guess I'm a sucker since I said I'd TRY to do this portrait. This is a favorite client and she's commissioning it for a friend of hers who just lost this cat. So many people think an artist can look at bad reference photos and immediately paint a superior portrait. Fortunately, this client is not like that but she would still like a miracle, of course. I know, I know, I could have r...

Pets To Posies: A Flower for my Daughter
http://petstoposies.blogspot.com/2013/02/a-flower-for-my-daughter.html
Thursday, February 28, 2013. A Flower for my Daughter. Well here I am again. I wanted to post the Tiare flower I just finished and to publicly thank Mr. Troy McKaskle for allowing me to use his photos as painting references. You can click on the photo to see it larger. I painted this in oils using a grisaille. A grisaille is the entire painting done first in shades of gray (NOT 50 of them this time! OK, back into hibernation in the studio as I've been painting up a storm since I got my mojo back! Will yo...

And YES, it really does work!

Pets To Posies: May 2012
http://petstoposies.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 15, 2012. All the Colors of White. We recently returned from a whirlwind trip to Pensacola, Florida where we went to see my husband's family, primarily his mother who is in her 90's. Most of the time was spent visiting with family but we did take some time to go to Pensacola Beach and all the way out to Ft. Pickens which is part of our National Parks System (you can read about Ft. Pickens HERE. I thought our little baby, CiCi really illustrates the strength of the wind, don't you? It has bee...

Pets To Posies: Final Commission
http://petstoposies.blogspot.com/2013/02/final-commission.html
Tuesday, February 12, 2013. I wanted to share my final commission with you even though I haven't posted here in quite some time. I've decided to retire from painting pet portraits or other commission work and this gorgeous white German Shepherd Dog makes a lovely good-bye post. The first clue I had was my husband retiring this past spring and wanting to do some traveling. That was fine, one can work around various trips and travel plans, right? I finally got to feeling well enough to paint again only to ...
