The Voice Everyone Knows

You can pick out his voice even in the most muddled, indistinct background vocals of any song: that smooth, warbling soulful sound emanating from a man with piercing blue eyes and a thick mane of white hair. Whether it's "Sweet Freedom", "What A Fool Believes" or one of his Motown covers, that voice of his wraps up that song with a giant blue bow and says, here ya go: signed sealed delivered, I'm yours. I'm proud to add to my gallery, 
Mr. Michael McDonald.

Heaven's Latest Addition to the Choir of Angels

Image
Barry saw a new estate auction that popped up on Facebook. It included the personal belongings of the late Olivia Newton John who sadly passed  2 years ago.  Among her estate items were several of her own drawings, crosses, mirrors, watches, clothing, and a Bible. It inspired me to draw her likeness. Sweet and angelic...Sandy from Grease. She lived near us in the Santa Ynez Valley and I had the blessing of meeting her and talking to her during one of her fund raisers. I just remember how kind and sweet she was and how her personality matched her perfect voice. Yes, without a doubt, the Heavenly  Choir welcomed this new angel with open arms.  May this rendering remind us all of this beautiful soul we lost.

Together In Heaven: Shanann, Cece and Bella Watts

Image
On August 13th 2018 in rhe wee hours of dawn, health supplement entrepreneur Shanann Watts and her 2 daughters, Cece and Bella, were murdered. Shanann was also pregnant with a son named Nico. Chris Watts, husband and father, strangled them all in a premeditated act in order to start a new life with his mistress.  It isn't important how they died but how they lived. Now they are spending eternity in heaven together and Chris? Well, Chris will be spending the rest of his life in prison; a fate much more merciful than the fate of his family. His 4 year-old daughter Bella was recorded singing a song about her daddy called My Daddy is A Hero. Nothing could have been further from the truth.

Horses of Course of Course!

Commissioned paintings are my cryptonite. As soon as I hear the words "paint this", i go into panic mode. So when a friend's friend asked me to paint her grand daughter and not one but FIVE horses, my hands got clammy. Not only that but she wanted the paintibg 10x20". I'm not comforable doing large size paintings because the squiggle marks and little jagged errors are magnified when it's enlarged. Lucky for me, the giclee printer could only print it 10x13. And, the client was easy to please. The whole painting took me about a week which is a lot faster than i thought it would. I hope to one day meet Maddie and her 5 horses in person some day
