"Bootin out Cancer"

2010-10-20T17:56:00.000-07:00

A co-worker was recently diagnosed with cancer. It is spread throughout her body. Fortunately she's young and is tolerating the chemo fairly well and she is looking much better. However, they have decided to do some genetic test/maps on her to try to determine if it is genetic. These tests are expensive. They are also spending a ton of cash on transportation to and from the doctor. So I decided after hearing the theme they have at the HS she teaches at Let's Boot out Cancer! That I'd paint a set of my cowboy boots to auction off. These are special as they have the colon cancer symbol ( a blue star ribbon) on the pull ups. All of the money is going to her family. If boots aren't your thing you probably aren't reading my blog. But I did a small water color of a girl shopping to auction off with the boots.

A few from the series "The Cowboy Way".

Cowgirls with Attitude

There is something about each one of these girls that has a little attitude.

Buffalo

Buffalo are something I love seeing out in the plains of the west. One of our friends has a buffalo ranch in Montana.

Boots

Some of the boots I've painted. I had one gentleman a few years ago buy a painting and then took it to his bootmaker.

Polo

I've been bitten by the Polo bug. I can't wait for the coming weeks. I've been so excited about attending some matches this summer that I've started some polo paintings. Here are a few.

I've been busy traveling, having a baby, and painting. I've sort of abandoned the blog for the time being. The painting a day on Ebay didn't work out for me. It just became more work than what it was worth. If you are interested in my paintings visit my website. Ginger

We Art Women and NicFest

2008-03-04T19:16:00.000-08:00

I had the opportunity to show in Boise last week at the We Art Women benefit. Some of my pieces sold at this benefit and I am glad I had a chance to take part in this show and help a worthy cause. One of my unsold pieces was selected to go to Sachels for a post benefit show. Satchels is 705 W. Bannock in Boise, Idaho.

I will be heading out on the road again this summer my first stop is NicFest in Casper, Wyoming. I will be there June 19th-21st. This show is held at the Nicolaysen Art Museum and Discovery Center at 400 E. Collins. I am planning on bringing a full booth. So whether you are in love with the Cowboy Way series, my Wild Flower series, or my Buffalo you will have ample pieces to choose from. I know this is still a long ways off but it was on my mind today as they sent me an email confirming my booth space. I hope to see many of you who follow my blog there.

Until then, may your days be filled with sunshine and warmth.

Moonlight Romance

2008-01-29T14:49:00.000-08:00

A warm summer night, gazing at the stars with the one you love. This is a place where dreams are made and love is shared. This is an original acrylic painting on masonite. It has a finish on it to help protect it for generations to come. It is ready to be placed on an easel as is or to be framed.
