My Baby -sold




 One of the greatest joys of motherhood or fatherhood is holding our sweet babies.  The softness of their skin, the way their hair smells, the way they curl their little bodies into our arms leaves the impression on our hearts that remains forever.  Today I ran into my 45 year old son at the grocery store of all places and he hugged me and said, "Hi Mom".  Because I was working on little LaRue's portrait, memories flashed through my mind of all the little and big hugs I have received over the years and how I can still remember those first days of his life. The presence of his life changed mine forever.

Through Thick and Thin - SOLD


 Several years ago I took a random shot of my two good friends talking.  I loved the look they shared between them.  That look said so much.  I am here for you.  We have been friends for over 30 years and this weekend we are spending a girls weekend together so painting this picture brought back so many memories of our lives.  Good times and bad that we have shared and walked through together.  Through thick and thin we have remained there for each other.  I have painted this picture several times for different people.  I always paint it a little different but the feeling remains the same and the message that girlfriends know in their hearts.
