Paintings With Soul

"Armed & Dangerous," 10" square, acrylics on museum quality panel, featuring a lime green dollar store squirt gun, $539 to the first  asking nicely  . It's wonderful to get away, but it's also wonderful to come back home. Especially when "getting back home" means dinners with my kids, long walks with the dog, and quality time with my paints. Thanks, as always, for following along with my artwork, Kim

    "Taking Flight," 8" x 10", portrait of a tri-colored Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, done in acrylics on museum quality panel, $469.  Email me for purchase details .   Remember " Pile ," the painting I was commissioned to do that was then donated to a Cavalier King Charles fundraiser? (It raised them a very nice chunk of change, by the way!) Well, my client sent me many wonderful inspiration photos and I'm slowly working through my favorites. This breed is truly a joy to paint.   In process pics of this guy are  on Facebook .   And after starting this one, I realized he looks a lot like another piece  I did nearly 5 years ago to this date starring my friend  Dee Dee Murray 's dog Hallie. How weird is that?   (As an aside,  Hallie is now an artist in her own right )   Enjoy your evening, Kim ksantini@turtledovedesigns.com
