Painting on Wood

Since I've been MIA for so long, I thought I'd do a post of a couple pieces I did before Christmas.  My mother recently had a new deck built, and as the men were throwing wood in the garbage, my mom was digging them out for me to art with!  Good mom!

So, I started doing some paintings on wood.



 and here she is finished.  This was a painting for an artist friend of mine.  I actually forgot to take real pics with my real camera.  I think I should.  This lady came out perfectly and I hold her close. I miss her, but I think  she is happy in her new home.



and then, Zombie girl!


I love this second stage...


Hubs really liked her, so we're keeping her around.  Do you love the Zombie craze?  The Walking Dead is seriously the best show I've ever seen!  I finally got the THE episode in this season the other night, and cry my heart out, I did!  Ugh. Tore me up!


and a couple more I started on wood, but have yet to finish.




I was loving the love out of her until I kept going and ...


now I just don't know what to do with her!

or her...



Happy Paint Party Friday!

    The wood is a medium to be studied to work with, it is gratifying to me when I get to finish a play and say "good". Your work is very good, always experimenting. Saludos
