A visit to Wilmington

I went to Wilmington on the 8th. On the way up Mom called and said  Raymond had a heart attack. He was in the hospital the whole time I was there and we visited frequently. Right after they determined he had a heart attack they got him taken care of and put a stent in. He spent the rest of the time recovering and being observed. Mom picked him up from the hospital when I was leaving. I am glad I was able to see him while up there, even if it was in the hospital.

Since we couldn't stay in the hospital the whole time and I had brought some paintings to show mom, I will show what was left. I brought her some canvas boards about 16 - 9"x12", 6 - 8"x10" and some smaller ones of the 6x6 and 3x4 variety. I also left some MDF for her to paint on.



Mom wanted the two paintings above

Paige is getting the next one


Raymond is using the box for his new set of prescriptions. It will hold the bottles


And since Jim and Betsy have always been supportive of the arts where mom is able to do and show her art, I gave them a couple of business card holders and a box. Jim has always been nice to me and I appreciate what he does.



Sorry that the pic is on top of my truck tool box.

or daisies or an obsession. It seems that I have decided to go with this style of flowers. I find them easy enough to paint and it allows me to get better. Maybe I have gotten better and maybe they are just the same, but it is practice and I need lots of it. It started with on of the yellowish flowers painted with the idea of a butterfly landing on it. I wanted a big looking flower and a butterfly to be smaller. In the end, the butterfly sucked. It really sucked. It was horrible. However, I loved the flower and have been painting them since. Here are some of them These are all on the cheap 10" frames that I got from Joann's.  The one below is on a canvas that I made. I think I prefer my canvases overall. I buy the duck cloth from Joann's also. I love going in the store. Everyone is so nice that works there. To add insult to injury about the butterfly pic on the flower, the paint peeled when I was trying to cover it and using a ...
