Thank Goodness it's Friday!

Featured Painting:

"Cocky Joe"

4"x6" acrylic painting on canvas panel -- $99

I have a friend who goes by the name "Rock Holliday" and was a regular extra/actor for the old west HBO series "Deadwood". He has two beautiful paint horses. I did this painting of one of them named "Cocky Joe" who is an absolutely beautiful proud horse. Very much everything his name implies!

I am definately looking forward to this weekend. Why is it when we have an extra day off during the week, it seems all the longer because of it? Probably because we are trying to pack 5 days of
activity and productivity into 4!
I've also started another painting and will give you postings as it is created. You'll recall I had to sit through a 4 1/2 hour meeting earlier this week. During that meeting I doodled a sketch on the pad I was taking minutes on (see left). I then transferred the image to a 5"x7" linen canvas and began painting it (see right). Hopefully it will only be a day before it is complete as I would LIKE to do a painting a day though I can only commit to one a week due to my calendar.
