Okay! Now my painting is done.

After evaluating my painting after a few days I decided it needed some more splashes of "life".  It needed more color to reflect the sunset.  Now it's done and ready for the final finish and framing.

Baba Ganoush and tikka masala curried chicken-greek heaven!


At our house Charlie fixes the best Greek food.  It is so delicious with the Greek pita bread.  When Charlie cooks it's such a treat.  The same with Chris.  They just have a special flair that I don't have.  Anyway, if you can make some of this you'll be in heaven.  The Tikka Masala sauce is actually from a packet make by Sukh's Gourmet Indian Foods and the Baba Ganoush was from an internet recipe.

Finished! Red Butte Garden

So here it is.  I switched to oils. Did some veils and glazes.  I wanted the sunset version because I thought this would be more romantic.  It's for a wedding present, after all.  If you look closely on the sidewalk you'll see who it's for.  I hope they will like it and not stick it in a closet some where (could happen-one never knows).

Added bonus:  Look on the left and you'll see the actual original underpainting.  I was in a hurry and didn't have time to trim.  Kinda fun to see, though.

Grand Rapids Music video-very fun!

I was watching the news tonight and there was a story about Grand Rapids, Michigan. I didn't catch the full story but I think it talked about how that city was a dying city. In response to that the whole town put together the best music video ever. It is so fun. Here it is:
