Newest Art, Sunflowers and New Orleans

Gosh - I can't believe it's been almost a month since I've posted anything. So sorry! I HAVE been busy creating, tho, and sold another dachshund painting. Oh, and if you want to have your own mardi gras dachshund painting, I JUST created an Etsy listing that gives you the option to customize your painting. Check out the link on the sidebar and check it out.

I LOVE New Orleans art. I love creating it. I love dreaming up new scenes. This is my latest piece. It's called "Mardi Gras Night", and depicts a huge French Quarter window with the view of the St. Louis Cathedral. And, yes, I included a little dachshund in the painting. It's 24" x 30" and it's for one of my collectors. It will actually hang at their apartment in the French Quarter, 2 blocks from the Cathedral. I'd love to hear your comments on it. Do you think I should do a series of paintings like this? Ideas...I can feel 'em coming!






And here is one more summer painting - one of my favorite flowers - sunflowers! It's a mixed media collage. It's 24" x 30" and it's listed in my Etsy store.






And next week I'll be getting a huge surge of inspiration for more paintings. I'm going to spend next weekend in the French Quarter. The smells, the sights and the sounds! Gosh - It's going to be overwhelming. I can't wait. Have a wonderful week and check back soon!

A little bit of Alice

I was playing around a little last month and branched into the world of collage art. I've been on this "Alice in Wonderland" kick and this is one of the things I came up with

I used oil sticks, acrylic paint, and scrapbook paper.

The Red Mardi Gras Dachshund is Here

Have you ever wondered why the Mardi Gras Doxie is always black and tan? Well, Miss Jazzy has been mischievous once more and was seen sporting a diguise this year! She was prancing around Mardi Gras dressed as "the red doxie". She doesn't fool me one bit, though. We caught up with the partying pooch and brought her home before she got into serious trouble with the French Quarter party dog catchers. But not before we snapped this photo of her!






Gift items with the Red Mardi Gras Doxie are now available at the Mardi Gras Doxie CafePress store!

Here's a peek at some of the products:





And for a limited time - I'm accepting commission for 12" x 16" paintings of the Mardi Gras Dachshund in either black/tan (see previous posts for image) or red as shown above. Contact me asap for details on this. The black and tan Mardi Gras Dachshund painting is the one seen in many Mimi's Cafe Restaurants nation wide. This little dog sure does get around.

Off to create. Thanks for stopping by!
