Just Being a Boy

"Just Being a Boy"
oil on canvas - 5"x7"
still life antique objects

While I was painting this old pair of shoes I found myself
having visions of my dad helping his father on an old wagon
delivering ice, running around getting into mischief and just
being a boy. I guess that's why I love old things,
I think they say a lot.

"Rose Red"
oil on canvas - 6"x8"
still life antique object

"This is a small plastic doll that belonged to my mother. You can
move her head back & forth and her legs move (like walking). Her
arms can also be moved and her eyes open and close. I named her
Rose Red but I never knew what mum called her. She is very small,
about 4.5". This was the only doll that I knew my mum had that was
hers. I don't know much else about her but she is still cherished."

This is an antique figurine that a friend recently acquired. I think
this little Bo Peep has definitely lost her sheep or at least I have
not seen them. I thought she was a very fancy little gal."

this pair of baby shoes in a box with some family heirlooms. Funny
to call them "antique" as I know these were MY shoes!" Hmmmmm.

oil on masonite - 6"x7"
still life antique toy

"This was a fun piece to do with its bright colors and shiny metal.
I used to collect wind-ups and the metal ones were always my favorites.
This one has a lot of action. The tail moves back & forward, the
ears go up & down and the feet move as the ball rolls forward."

oil on masonite - 4"x6"
still life antique

"Today I decided on an old electrical insulator. I found this
in the basement of my old studio building that was over 100
years old. I am sure it must have come from one of the old
poles on the street. I love how the light reflects through
the old blue glass and show its imperfections."

still life antique

"This rare old pin cushion belongs to a friend of mine
who is a scottie dog collector. I thought this was an
unusual item and had to do a painting of it. I
liked the difference of the textures; the satin cushion,
stitching around the edges and the ceramic dogs."

"This was my grandmas white milk glass covered dish. She had
a big one and this small one. I have no idea what you are suppose
to put in them, but I think they are cool. This was an interesting
painting to do as it was a study in whites."
