I recently added acrylic paints to my art supplies. This is my first attempt at using them. It will take some getting used to how fast these paints dry but I do find them fun to use!

REST IN PEACE...FRIEND
I met you Christmas morning. You were different and unique. I had never known a companion like you. For years I had been uncomfortable to seek a relationship with your kind. I always told myself that I was not worthy, smart enough, or capable of maintaining the kind of productive partnership that you offered.
Twenty nine days. We shared twenty nine wonderful days discovering the joys that allowing you into my life had brought. You with me, at the City Park on my one mile morning runs. You made time go faster as I ran on the treadmill. I liked relaxing together on my couch. Riding in a car as a passenger was now more fun because of you. I had no idea what I had been missing all these years. But then it all had to end. And why?
I wish I could go back and change my actions that night. Why did I stray from my usual routine? How is it that I forget to settle you in your safe place that night before we all went to bed? I had always taken such good care of you. Why did I not think? I caused the actions that lead to your untimely death! Oh why?
And what is more horrible is the cause of this untimely death…it was drowning! You see, it is very unfortunate that iPod’s cannot tolerate being washed with laundry. To my horror this morning I washed my iPod! My beautiful teal iPod is no longer working. REST IN PEACE…FRIEND.

2008 STARTS OUT GREAT
There is something great about getting a commission done. This beautiful horse was owned by a fellow artist, Rachael Wilkins. Follow her link (under my favorites) to see the whimisical sculptures she creates. This horse, WHITEWALLS, is a handsome Saddlebred and my very first oil commission. I think he turned out quite nice as portraits go. Whew!
My creative brain is awake and I am in the middle of a large 18 x 24 oil of a Peruvian Paso for a local Artist's Association Monthly Meeting coming up next Monday.
Also watch eBay for new works as well....
Happy Creating and Collecting to each and all who love horses!
