Happy Father's Day-Still Life

This is my contribution to this week's DPW Challenge. This week, it's the Gift Challenge presented by Carol Marine.

I decided to combine it with Father's Day to kill two birds with one stone.

In looking back at some of my older art on this blog, I felt my present style is getting more understated...laid back...even ho hum perhaps???
So I decided to kick painting inhibitions in the butt with this one, and add plenty of color pizazz!
I must admit, it feels great! Exciting again!
At this point, I don't know if it's over done or too wild to even hold together as art.
I'll let you decide that for me with your comments (if you will be so kind).

This is my contribution to this week's DPW Challenge. This is the Outside Your Window Challenge presented by Ann Feldman .

This is a frequent flyer to the bird feeder just outside my studio window. As I paint or browse on the puter, I can watch all the action from the diners. This handsome cardinal and his mate are regular daily guests. I have actually observed the male feeding a seed to the female on a couple of occasions! Ain't love grand ! It was in early Spring, so it may have been part of a pre nesting ritual.

This is my contribution to this week's DPW Challenge. It wsa hosted by the fine artist, Linda Popple.
I really enjoy this weekly challenge. It forces me to paint an extra piece each week. Plus I enjoy jumping in to paint from an unfamiliar picture with a hurry-up deadline. Actually, the DPW Challenge doesn't impose a deadline...I self impose it to get it done within that week. It's like flying (or painting, Lol) by the seat of your pants.
It is great fun to see the various solutions these fine artists come up with!

This is my contribution to the WDE on Wet Canvas. The hostess was Dewi. She's from Thailand and offered up some great photos of Thailand and it's people. I liked the composed, confident, look on this fellow's face (his name is Noom).
