Vodka and Big Red

I don’t know if I prefer it this way, horizontal, or rotated clockwise 90º.

Desert Sips

Just in case you were curious about comparing the Desert Sip paintings, here are both images together.

It’s a bit misleading since the original (top) is larger than the newer, abstract version.

Desert Sip 2

Filed under: PAINTINGS — Colby @ 3:31 pm

I was lying on the bed and looked up and behind me at a painting I’d done. It’s called “Desert Sip.” From my upside down view I thought that the colors looked interesting. I wondered what the painting would look like if there wasn’t a recognizable object in it. I decided to find out.

You can view and compare the original, Desert Sip, in the paintings gallery.

What can be more intriguing than watching a snail crawl? To a four year old boy, there is wonder in almost everything.

Jim and Myrt

Filed under: PAINTINGS,Portraits — Colby @ 11:03 am

One of my sisters shared a photo of her father-in-law sitting in a pickup truck. I thought the photo was interesting so I decided to use it in a painting.

Jim-and-Myrt

I felt Jim needed a dog so I added a likeness of Myrtle, a bassett hound we once had. She was with us for 18 years. I had to cover my eyes with sunglasses on the day she died.

The house they’re driving by is the one my grandmother was born in.
