VIOLET

12 X 12

Here’s the latest version of my brown cow. 

I’d like to do some larger animal paintings for the gallery in the future.

I’m a bit rusty in knowing what I want out of these paintings.

I didn’t know girl cows could have horns but it turns out they do have horns.

Still not sure of title - Dream Weaver, Lilac, Iris are more choices. 

The first 8 x 8 study is below. 

Thanks for all the comments and help along the way - MB

MEEKER

I painted this dog multiple times. Hardest dog painting ever!

I wasn’t sure if I could do him justice. 

He’s the kind of dog that keeps everyone on their toes. 

Here’s another description - those crazy eyes and happy smile.

Anyway, painting like crazy - thanks for stopping by MB

MY IDOL & INSPIRATION

Wayne Thiebaud, Playful Painter of the Everyday, Dies at 101

Mr. Thiebaud’s rich and luminous depictions of midcentury Americana separated him from the classic Pop Art of the time.

MOCHA PEPPERMINT

8 X 8 oil on panel

It’s been ages since I tried painting an animal.

I’ve forgotten how to do it - My way(whatever that means or feels like)

 It’s finally snowing here & we’re relieved to see some white stuff piling up 

Hope all is well out there

Thanks for looking MB

 

SOLD - YIPEE KI YAY!

These didn’t make it to the gallery - SOLD before they dried!

I’ve been jamming along - sales have been unbelievably 

strong. I know this is something you’ve seen before and I’m going to try

out some new images soon. In truth the gallery is enjoying my little

bit of success. Makes me look like a bonafide painter.

Do a snow dance for Colorado - it’s looking sad out there.

Thanks a bunch MB

 

PET PORTRAIT COLLAGE

A friend of mine commissioned all of these portraits over the years.

She sent me this fun collage - it really made my day!

These are portraits of her friends and families dogs - she finally got her own puppy.

I hope to be painting her new puppy “Meeker” soon.

Stay tuned and thanks - MB

On another note 

the Winter Carnival painting was a hit with the folks in charge -phew!   

I hope brings in a boat load of $$$$$
