Snow Moon -Feb 4, 2015

Have you heard of the "snow moon"? I hadn't until this year. It is the first full moon in February.

My daughter took this photo from her upstairs window about 4 am. As I am traveling, I of course missed the beautiful scene, but not the deep snow that has come since then!

Day 28-29-30 30 Paintings/ 30 Days Painting Challenge

Day 28 -  I love the desert and find it so very peaceful there. I will be heading that way very soon, and can hardly wait to be back there again!

"Desert Campfire"

4" x 4" mini, oil on canvas panel

Day 29 - Meanwhile, I captured these birds through my window on my phone camera a couple mornings ago. They were drinking and playing in the water left by recent rains. I watched their antics for a time as they went to the water and back again. It doesn't take much to make me laugh.

"You Lookin' at Me?"

4" x 4" mini, oil on canvas panel

Day 30 - This painting is from a photo taken of my RV 2 yrs ago on my last journey west. My intention was to head that way soon as this challenge was finished but it seems the Lord has other plans for me and I will have to forgo that journey for another year.

"Deserts of Ajo"

4" x 4" mini, oil on canvas panel

I'm finished!! This challenge helped me learn several things about painting and about myself.

Thanks for viewing!

Day 25-26-27 30 Paintings/ 30 Days Painting Challenge

 

Day 25 - My favorite snack is apples with peanut butter.

It's a great "get-over-the-I-need-dessert" substitute; a good-for-you protein and energy filler!

  I enjoyed painting the different colors in this Gala apple!

"Gala Apple"
4" x 4" mini, oil on canvas panel

Day 26  - This scene is at the top of the hill from the Camp Huaco Springs campground. I would drive up there for signal to make phone calls. This is also where I saw the road runner.

"Tree Grove, Texas Hill Country"
4" x 4" oil on canvas panel

 Day 27 - This is probably my most favorite of the flower world. These are some I grew while living in Kentucky. As these giant beauties follow the path of the sun, they stand as a reminder to me that the best path in life is to........
