Dolphin overdose!

Recently I had a custom order for dolphins and it took many tries for me to get it right. Now I have a whole bunch of partially completed dolphin pictures that I am trying to turn into things because basically I filled an entire water color book with dolphins. Above we have a moon dream, a trip to Jamaica that my mom took (not done yet) and sleeping water woman...there are a whole bunch of dolphins in my shop now if you like dolphins.
I am not great at drawing from reality all the time so, I am not to happy with the trip to Jamaica so far, but my plan is to go through all the pictures and draw a whole bunch until I get them right. They look alright but, they don't look like the people that they are. My mom's friend Melissa, and a guy who drives a boat and his dog. I can't remember their names but one is Copper. I'll have to look it up. I will get back to you on that. Okay, the guy is named captain Ted aka Coppah and I don't know his dog's name.

Velvet painting...work in progress

So, this is a not great photograph of a work in progress. This is my daughters banana palm tree surrounded by an imaginary sort of night time scene where a tiny spirit is dancing. I call it velvet painting because, my daughter told me that is what it looks like and I think she is right. This one may be for sale soon!

Bathroom painting! Mural...

This is a mural I am painting in my bathroom. I started it because, some work men broke some plaster in my bathroom. I didn't have matching paint so, my daughter and I got the idea that I should paint a mural over it.Well it has now taken over and I am having a lot of fun with it. In fact so far painting the wall is quite a bit more fun then painting a canvas. No pressure? I don't know! Or maybe because there is so much space.
