You're My Best Friend - SOLD

8" x 10" acrylic on linen panel

William Holcomb of Oak Hill Trading Company is a wonderful photographer.  Each of his photos tell a story and I am thankful he let me use one of his photos as a reference for this palette knife painting. Palette knife painting is a challenge but especially on a small canvas.  

There's No Place Like Home - SOLD

This is a 11" x 14" oil on linen panel.  What a thoughtful gift.

Mama's House- SOLD

This house reminds me of my grandmother's house.  I remember walking in the room and it would be pretty warm even with the windows open and the fan going because Grandmother would be in the kitchen cooking something good in anticipation of our visit.  My brother and I called it "country cooking".  She had things like turnip greens, black eyed peas and mashed potatoes and of course, biscuits.  Sometimes we had country ham.  I remember we ran in and out of that screened door and it slammed behind us hundreds of times.  Grandmother never seemed to notice.  This week I celebrated my Birthday and my grandchildren presented me with homemade cards.  I absolutely loved their messages and hope they are holding fond memories in their hearts of the times they've spent with me.  

Commitment- SOLD

I am always honored when someone ask me to paint for them but I was especially honored to paint this man.  The look of peace and gentleness captured my heart.  I have known ministers like this in my lifetime.  Those who have spent time with the Lord and have that "connection" that makes you just want to be around them, listen to them and try to glean some of their wisdom.  When I was young my minister, Alton Parris was that example.  I still remember his quiet spirit and his peaceful nature.  I have written in the back of my Bible one of his favorite verses he shared with me.  Psalm 143:10 "Teach me to do your will, for you are my God, may your good Spirit lead me on level ground."  Great verse.  I feel like this gentleman also knows that verse and he walks on level ground.
