Tropicana Hibiscus Solo
Tropicana Hibiscus Solo
Today was a sunny and rather cool day here in Charlotte, NC, and I had decided to pick a painting that I have shown before on YardSellr.
"Tropicana Hibiscus Solo" reflects some warmth as well coolness in its colors which is so similar today's weather that gives us a "new breath
of fresh air" after a couple of cold rainy days. This painting portrays one of one of my most favorite flowers and colors in a vivid hot pink
with some blend of orange which is found in the Tropicana Hibiscus.

"Happy About Winning"
"Happy About Winning"
A few years ago, I decided to paint a whimsical painting of a horse who was at that time very happy about winning as well receiving a garland of roses and a silver trophy. This horse has some serious teeth that when he both smiled and nayed, he had really had shown off his 'teethy smile".

"American Lady"
"American Lady"
Scenes of shrimp boats are among the popular subjects in the southeastern corner of the United States of America. This was is one of my most favorite of the shrimp boats that were decorated for the "Blessing Of The Fleet" shrimp boat parade in Bayou La Batre, Alabama that year. The name of this particular parade which is called "Blessing Of The Fleet" because the Archbishop of the Mobile, Alabama's Catholic Diocese blesses the fleet of Shrimp boats as well those who are involved in this type of business.

Lighthouse Welcome
Lighthouse Welcome:
This is a novelty, wooden sign that I did last year along with the other signs. It is about a lighthouse that has its lights showing during dusk. This particular piece is made up of two layers of plywood which one was cut into a filigree style while the other was plain that were both glued and painted in acrylic to create that three-dimensional and relief appearance.
