"Can't win them all, and they all were at my show last night."


I really liked the composition of this one, but I couldn't get it together with the proportions so I scrapped it.


This is my 2nd (but really like 5th) I got really tired and frustrated so I just went for it and this is what is happening, I haven't spent enough time on the face or the hands (the 2 best parts) but I think its a reasonable start.

two posts in one day!?!


This is the start of a new painting I am starting, I am going to try and post along the way to show the ole' progress. Also it should help make my blog not a ghost town, like it was becoming.

A year in Blue?



I wore a blue suit at my wedding, (photo by Annie Watkins who enjoys new age fun with a vintage feel.)


Favorite Album of the year. By miles and miles



I read "Bluebeard" by Kurt Vonnegut Jr. and I adored it. As soon as it ended I wanted to pick it right back up and read it again. Brady recommended it to me, as he had just finished reading it, and wow. What an amazing book.

Best Quilt of year/all time. Lizzy outdid herself. (IT HAS BLUE ON IT JENNY)



I heart you guys.

Thank you everyone for an amazing year and cheers (for Brady who is still in love with her) to the next one.

Because Jenny is making me



Here is a small study 8x10, that I did the other night. I have been painting and not falling by the wayside. I just haven't been super pleased with the results.

Heart,
Allen
