Scarlett Johannson and Westie Dog

I missed seeing this, westie art, published in print of Scarlett Johannson and this sweet westie! I'm posting it here for all of us westie lovers. It reminds me how my westie boy needs the perfect trimming soon.

I was in a car accident earlier this month and have not been able to post or paint like before. Today I'm working on catching up here and my paintings. The house can wait. Thank you to all who have sent well wishes!

Westie Dog Beach Walk Painting

Westies love water! Sometimes they don't love what we call baths. They would rather play in the surf and soak in a lake or pond. That, the westies agree, is a real bath. Then they come out and shake a bit to share their bath with us.

I've been playing with light and shadows and really cutting back on the shadow values in my paintings. I do love the feeling of colors. The moods colors can bring out.

This original west highland terrier painting is up for sale on ebay with a buy it now price as well.

Primitive Doll Clothes and Brown Transferware

I found three small collector dolls for 1.32 each at a thrift shop. They make wonderful styling props. The very first thing I did was take off their hats, their coats, their dresses right down to their whites. Doesn't she look beautiful, cool and carefree? It's hard looking at dolls bundled up in coats in 100 degree weather.









She helps hold a brown transferware teacup for me to photograph. So helpful. This tea cup is from the Royal Staffordshire group.






A little pinch of red for spice. Ruby slippers or red mary janes? Just cute!

I also found another metal plate from England. Vintage. I gave it a white wash with paint and love the change it gives the plate. It looks so peaceful, calm and shabby. The gentleman is buying flowers for his love. He seems to be having a hard time letting go of the money. Just kidding.
