Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween!! Enough said, just back from the niece and nephew's house, i.e. borrowed kids since mine are old.  I did not steal too much candy and I taste tested the opened candy.  No razor blades or pins.

Summer Day study

Today's entry is an oil painting of a scene which reminded me of the western part of Virginia out by the Blue ridge mountains.  Enjoy!

Cannon Beach Lighthouse

My Dad and I share an interest in Lighthouses.  We like to see the east coast and west coast Lighthouses.  This is an oil of this west coast lighthouse at Cannon Beach, Oregon.  Enjoy!

Denver & Rio Grande Western narrow gauge engine

Today's artwork is a scratchboard of a Narrow Gauge engine 2-8-2 from the Colorado R.R. - the Denver, & Rio Grande Western.  This was an early experiment in scratchboard.  This is one of the ones which came together easily and surprised me.  So enjoy and feel free to ask me questions about anything I post.

Sea Lion sunning

I enjoy the way sea life utilize the manmade buoys for sunning and resting.  This watercolor is of a buoy up in the Northwest Pacific US.  It is always worth watching for what is hanging out on these navigational aids.  Enjoy!

Clark's Nutcracker

Today's oil is a Clark's Nutcracker.  He is a western bird.  I have always liked birds as they are the easiest wildlife to see and attract.  This one was seen in Yellowstone National Park.  Enjoy!

Poudre Canyon Aspen Gate

This is the Oil Painting version of the scene.  I great way to remember a day in the Mountains.  Enjoy!
