ART. Curly Fries. Oil on panel. 6x8 inches. I listed this painting in an auction to raise funds to help the Japanese people who are devastated after the earthquake and tsunami and now nuclear reactor meltdown. After watching a quite detailed video on CNN this afternoon of before and after photos and interviews of common folk, I decided to submit a painting to the auction fundraiser. Take a look at my Curly Fries painting and all the paintings listed.  Each painting will be up for seven days. New auctions will be added daily. I hope you find a painting for your walls.

Ripe Bananas.

RIPE BANANAS  •  8x8 inches • mixed media on Arches 140# paper 
email for availability 

ART.  Ripe bananas need to be stirred into banana bread or moved on out of the kitchen, and like ripe bananas I have 21 ORIGINAL OIL PAINTINGS that need to be stirred around or moved on out of the studio.  I decided to make a banana bread with a SILENT AUCTION of paintings. This SILENT AUCTION will be held on a special page of MY PERSONAL WEB SITE.

Art is meant to be shared. Art has a personal meaning to both maker and collector. Each of my paintings has a story behind it. Email me if you want to hear the story behind the painting. You may find your painting in this collection.

You don't have to register to view. There are no forms to fill out.  Your offers will be made by email. All offers will be private.  Winning offers and winner names (unless authorized) will be kept secret.  The highest offer on any one painting will win that painting, and it is VERY POSSIBLE you will walk away with an original oil painting for only a few dollars.

The SILENT AUCTION begins on June 1st, ends on June 14th and WINNERS will be contacted privately via email on June 15th. You can search my blog for any of the 21 paintings to find the original list price.

Click here to PREVIEW the SILENT AUCTION paintings and see if a painting speaks to you. Please feel comfortable making an offer of any amount. This auction begins on June 1st and ends on June 14th which is Flag Day, and winners will be announced by private email on June 15th.

Thank you.

Silent Auction at the Dog Park

ART.  The Woodlands Dog Park Club is hosting a silent auction at their upcoming May 16 fundraiser--"SPRING BARK."

 For the silent auction, I have donated three giclee prints (back row, left to right)--Dalmatian Garden Party, Chef Dachshund (framed), Plein Aire Painter Doxie, and (front row, left) three mugs featuring my Dachshund in Hat Trio: Chef, Painter and Cowboy. To be given away FREE, I've included 200 note cards to be inserted into 200 goodie bags with lots of other good stuff.

 So MARK YOUR CALENDARS--May 16, and come on out to The Woodlands, Texas on Saturday, May 16. You can get directions from The Woodlands Dog Park Club web site. 

While you're there, browse through the site to see all the good ways the Club is helping homeless pets.

Today's Blessing: I can still walk after attending my grandson's 5th grade prom dance and dancing Friday night away with an 11 year old. It was so much fun, but wow! Do I feel it!
