Fireplace Mural

I did this mural in our living room in an old fireplace mantle. When we bought the house, the entire mantle was painted off white. It is not a usable fireplace, but why not make it an artistic focal point?

I painted this one specifically to match the existing wallpaper border.

Here's a closer view of it.

Wooden Shoes

This was just a fun little project as a gift to my sister, Rachel. Her husband had these plain wooden shoes around for years. I volunteered to add a little interest to them. This is an example of a traditional Dutch folk art called Hindenloopen.

Chicken Milk Can

I found this milk can behind my father-in-law's barn. It had been sitting out in the elements for at least 30 years. It was horribly rusty. I had it sandblasted. And this is what it looks like now. I just did this for my own personal challenge. Could I rescue a rusty piece of junk? Notice the handles. They are frozen in that position from 30+ years of rain, snow, sleet and sun.

John 15:5

Painting I did on canvas. This is one of my favorite verses..so I decided to paint an illustration to go along with the verse.

This now hangs in my dining room.

Roses on Cupboard

This is a close up of some roses I painted on a cupboard door for a client.





These are the roses along the bottom of the cupboard.


The finished product (albeit sideways).

Garden Powder Room

This was a very tiny powder room that I painted. It is a garden theme with a picket fence and flowers.





Above is a detail of a dragonfly. Sorry it is blurry. I was very frustrated that I could not get a clear picture of it. One of my goals is to get a better camera!

Guitar Room

I painted this mural for a teenager's room. This particular teen wanted an electric guitar theme. I aim to please!
