Christmas Tree

When I was a child I always believed there were magical things going on in the woods.  I could see lights coming from under bushes and felt there were fairies nearby and I would see them if only I looked hard enough and in the right places.  I thought there might be a Christmas tree hidden in there as well.

I worked on this some more...it was too bare.

Moon and Tree

"Moon and Tree" by me.  Rhymes.  I sat down to do something totally different and wound up painting another tree.  Ah well. 

"Gold Leaf"

This is "Gold Leaf" by natalie singer
it's 8"x10" acrylic on panel
I love this one.  I'm having a hard time parting with it but I think it may be sold.  I'm going to miss this one. 

"Ashes to Ashes"

This is "Ashes to Ashes".   Byrdie my cat died a week before his 22nd birthday, in April 2011.  The first thing I painted after he died was titled "Ghost Cat".  It's a little sad feeling that one.  Then I did this.  I had him cremated and this was connected with that.  That his ashes would meld with nature and he would become a part of it.  I was a bit off I guess right after he died and it doesn't make a lot of logical sense now,  but yet in some way it still makes sense to me; that he became of part of the world around me in some way......ashes to ashes.
