Tall Pink Poppies from my backyard

I was fooling around today with a photo I had taken in my backyard a couple of days ago. I think it turned out kind of cool.  Black and white with a pop of pink.

Gardening with the dogs

Good Morning,

I eat fruit and when I do I save the seeds. I got some black apricots from Sprouts the other day and they were just yummy. I stuck them in a bag with sand and…………

I hope they work out. I put them in little pots in the shade. Soon our backyard will be a jungle.

My neighbor stopped by AnnessaYMorrisonArt with her little doggy – Gracie May. Oh yes,  I have pictures of Sasi the Piglet or a new name we call her Lady Twillig of Moths (she likes catching them). They were playing and having a great time.

She is getting a little old and has lost some teeth but she still looks good. Her coat is still black and white – not grey.

Silly dogs. It’s nice and cloudy up here. Its a wonderful day to be outside. Yes, I really just wanted a picture of Sasi.

I have been working on my ZAZZLE store and have added two more images. They are taken from the silly cat I painted. I was playing with my vector program. It is a lot of fun. This picture is cute but I don’t like the background on the painting. Here are the revisions.

I hope everyone is having a great day!

Missed Opportunity al20160821

Missed Opportunity WtrmarkFinally finished. The cat is hiding in the daisies, focused on the bird. The cat did not see the tasty little mouse that in the flowers. The mouse has plucked a flower and is hiding behind it. Silly mouse. The cat had a missed opportunity. Sometimes we do this in life, we walk right by what is right in front of our face. #Acrylic #painting #whimsical http://www.artpal.com/alburtonart/

A photograph I took in the spring of tulips. The area was a wooded area and I was enjoying a lovely stroll. Flowers I adore. These tulips had some snow on the ground that day. Brrrrrrr. http://www.artpal.com/alburtonart/ #alburtonart

A picture I took of a heron standing on a garage, he was comtemplating which delicious Koi fish he was going to dine on that night. When we make decisions in our life with deliberate percision we are like  a heron. We met this big guy just when out lives were turning. I have read the heron offers the gift of balance, good luck and patience. He is definitely magnificent. A photo I took in April of 2012. I would say our lives actually started changing that year. #alburtonart  http://www.artpal.com/alburtonart/

Chicken pot pie

chicken pot pieJust took a break from painting. My guys and the dog loved it. A chicken pot pie with sage bechamel sauce and crescent roll crust. I did not have any peas so I went out to the garden for something green. A whole handful of chopped sage in the sauce. Yum. Yum. My Sweetie just asked for the ipecac so he could eat more. Sweet guy.  Back to the painting.

Yep, this is the painting of Cats. My Cat Whisperer loves cats, we have 5 of them indoors. They all have different personalities and will lickity-split all which ways when they are being bad and getting in trouble. We also have 3 outdoor kitties wh do not want to live in a house, they pretty much stick around in the backyard. They have a small house to shelter out of the rain and all the food they can eat. Then we have the cat visiters who show up just to check out the food situation. All of the outdoor cats have been on the catch, neuter and release…… except one, Piggy, he is such a mellow male and beside we could not catch him. I have this as an art print on ArtPal – http://www.artpal.com/alburtonart?i=74294-2  #alburtonart

Added a new piece of art to Artpal – http://www.artpal.com/alburtonart   Looking at our 5 cats we rescued. I am surrounded. They are always wanting to go every which way. They also all have such different personalities. We also have 3 more cats that refuse to come inside we feed.
