WHIMSICAL DOGS and BASKETS |
||
WOOF! Dogs Rock!
Do you love dogs and see the personalities shine through??
Whimsical, colorful, dog paintings from oil pastels on canvas
make a room pop! The energy and personality of each painting gives any room more life and energy. My dogs have been my most cherished friends, and I try to bring my Love for them onto canvas....to bring a smile.
Each one of my paintings is unique and one of a kind.
NATURAL FIBER BASKETS
from materials mostly gleaned from Balboa Park, handmade, unique, one of a kind, (they are never the same)...fickle objects, really....materials can be Dracaena Draco, inflorescence, philodendron, pine needles, grapefruit skins, and a lot of soap operas (I make them while watching All My Children & One Life to Live)..styles are: hip baskets, Appalachian baskets, random baskets, and more.
Each basket has its own personality: quiet, shy, maternal, flashy, staunch, etc...and apparently choose their owners...and, no, none of them are made out of cannabis. ;-)
*All artwork can be mailed. Cash or Checks only. Commissions require 50% down payment.

 About the Artist.....I am a 'senior citizen' with plenty of those 'senior moments'. All my life, I've lived in San Diego...first in China Town (yes, San Diego did have a China Town) then to the suburbs...not having blonde hair and round blue eyes...I was the odd one out, square peg in round hole, raisin nut amongst wonder...and in my quest to understand, I studied psychology at San Diego State University. Somewhere, along the way, art crept into my psyche and taught me to let go, roll with it, and enjoy the ride....art is a good ride. Art is Emotion...Emotion is Life. Life is Art! (lai quon) Art is.
