Painting in Process


I'm working on several paintings right now. That way I can stand back and get a fresh eye when looking at them. One painting has one dog in it, a second painting has two dogs and the third piece has three dogs in it.

Here is a peek at one of them.

More to follow later.

Rich's Collection


I started this landscape painting several years ago. My husband, Rich, would not let me sell it and insisted once finished it would be part of his private collection of my work.

So, for Christmas I took it out of storage and dabbled with it a bit. Added some fun greens, blue greys and a few darks. Finally I signed it and surprised him with a completed painting.

Now it is officially finished, framed, and being enjoyed by my husband.

Palm Springs Kennel Club

Monet in the Show Ring

Drew in the Art Booth


"Monet" Rusticwood Spellbound Free-stacking


I showed my girl, Monet, at Palm Springs this past weekend. The weather was awesome - no wind - no rain. Lots of sunshine and a gentle breeze.

It is so much fun to show our dogs. They get to enjoy being out of the house, visiting people and getting lots of treats. Monet was also my official greeter in my art booth. Drew and Jewel also helped in the booth. Family Fun!!!
Monet is learning people in dress clothes usually have really great "stuff" in their pockets.
