New print release


First, the top two greyhound pieces below, the blue fawn with the ocean and the pen and ink drawing have been SOLD. Thank you.

I have just completed a new painting that is available as a limited edition print. It is titled Gypsy Fantasy and features a beautiful Gypsy Vanner horse. I am in love with this breed of horse and plan to do more artwork with Gypsy horses in the near future. This print is 10 x 14" and comes matted in an off white 16 x 20" mat, it is a limited edition of 100 and is signed and numbered.

Last night I was able to go to the Equine Extravaganza show at the Raleigh NC fairgrounds. It was thoroughly enjoyable and our front row seats were amazing. Many of the horse acts just took my breath away with their beauty.

This time it's greyhounds





I have several greyhound paintings and a pen and ink that have been sitting around my studio a bit.....
so I am offering them now.
The blue fawn headstudy with the ocean in the background is oil on canvas board and measures 11 x 14" and I am offering it now for $150. I used this painting on notecards that I took to Dewey Beach last year. (By the way, the weather was lovely last year, the first time in a long time)
The pen and ink drawing has an image size of about 6 x 10" and is on illustration board. I used it for Christmas cards many moons ago and a buyer would be able to do the same or just frame it as is. It is $50. The other two headstudies, a fawn and a black are in watercolor on arches paper. As you can see the colors are very vivid and they have a lot of detail. Each is 9 x 13" and would make a good pair, but I will sell individually for $85 each.

Pen and ink drawings



Found these two drawings; the top one I made into a print quite a few years ago, but this is the original. It is 11 x 14". I am offering it for $55.
The bottom one was used in the design of the logo for the 2004 American Whippet Club national specialty in Greensboro. It was a very popular design and this original pen and in drawing, also 11 x 14" is $65.
This is a nice opportunity to own original artwork for a super price!

Studio sale





Work has been piling up at my studio and some of these paintings need to go to new homes! I am offering them here at reasonable prices. They would make great gifts for yourself or someone special. Many of them are miniatures so could fit almost anywhere in the home, on a wall or an easel.
The first little painting is 6 x 8" oil on panel, a headstudy of a blue merle border collie. She was so striking with her color and blue eyes, and so unusual for a border collie, I just had to paint her. Blue Merle Border Collie is priced at $100
Next are two miniatures, 5 x 7", done in watercolor on clayboard. Clayboard watercolors are sprayed with a fixative so there is no need for glass. I offer Produce and Wisteria and each is priced at $75.
Last is an 11 x 15" watercolor on paper, a headstudy of a hunter-jumper with a vivid blue background. The price for this painting is $125.
