Did I Ever Mention I Love To Doodle?

SOLD...more in the making
I went to Michaels yesterday to pick up a broad brush for working larger paintings and of course you have to wander around and look at all the "stuff" . Stuff to do books with, cook with, make beads and...bags! I LOVE bags. So there hanging on the wall were three canvas bags. I picked up two! Hmm..what will I do with these? Oh Look....Fabric markers...two packages I put in the cart with my two bags and one brush. Today after picking up the bag and putting it back down a bunch of times I thought...why not make a Doodle Lab Bag!!! And so it was made. For the first Doodle Lab Bag I was excited at the whole concept. The size is 12 3/4" x 12" x 7 1/4" . Front and back have doodles and I'm thinking of doodling also on the sides.

If you are interested in having your very own Doodle Lab carry all...I will be taking orders. Basset hound Doodle Carryall?? Can do that too.

You'll find this piece on Etsy today! It's 6" x 6" and just a lovely painting.
Til tommorrow!!! Sheila

Tropical Work..Well Who Knew?

There I was painting scenes from my trips to the Islands, loving and reliving every moment. The all of sudden Labs enetered my life. I did outdoor shows then and heard, "She does dogs and Caribbean scenes??????" The expression on the faces told the story. LOL. I have as some know, put Labs in the Caribbean.
Today I recieved my copy of Art Business News and a friend of mine had her tropical turle painting in it as an example. I am thrilled for her. Her work is bright, colorful and fun. http://www.reneedecator.com/

The article was.."Tropical Art..A Consistant Seller in the Art World." After doing a little dance...I REALLY love painting the tropics..I decided to put this piece on today. Oh yes, I really LOVE painting Labs so that continues but you will also be seeing Caribbean Art too. Let me know what you think..put a Lab in every so often???
This oil is available as a Giclee now. 24" x 24" on Gallerywrap Canvas. $270.00 enhanced with paint and signed. Limited Edition of 50.

Dancing Like Tina Turner...

It's a little after noon here. Roger got me a small cd player with speakers before he went for his stents so I'd have some louder music in the studio. The speaker I had whispered. It's wonderful having music and I've been getting out my old CD's and putting them on. Try listening to Michael Jackson's "Smooth Criminal" and not trying to lean like he did in the music video. Yes my two kids were teens then and it was the time we connected so I watched all the MTV videos with them.
Then I just had Tina Turner on. Try not to jiggle and move like she does when you hear her. Throw your hands in the air and really move..however..even though 62 is the new 42, be sure you've been excersizing all along and not just getting back into it. I felt the twinge..now the pain in my lower back..LOL..3 Advils down and hopefully it stops so I can get back to painting.
Check back later to see if I post new work or Im laying on a slab icing my muscles.
Sigh, I better find Beethoven for this afternoon!
