Commission Continued

I had hoped to have this done today but that is not happening. So here is the current state of my commission for Dasherwhitetail from furaffinity. "Dasher and Anubis", 8 1/2 x 11 Acrylic on Canson board.

Chick-Fil- LIES

Yesterday several friends on Facebook posted the news that Chick-fil-A had changed their tune, had said they would no longer contribute to anti gay groups and would not discriminate against gays! My friends called it a victory and thought it was such great news. I told them ALL that it was a lie, that these people had not changed that they only did this for PR because they were losing business because of the boycott! Well, here is news from today; http://www.advocate.com/business/2012/09/20/chick-fil-raising-money-very-week-anti-marriage-equality-group#.UFtIR7bmHLY.facebook

Commission Start

I did this a few days ago but did not decide to post it till now. This is a commission for http://www.furaffinity.net/user/dasherwhitetail/ from FurAffinity and while not the next in line, it is the one that was coming out, so I need to get something done and this is a good start. He likes this and I am already much further along. The finish picture will be posted by the end of the week I hope. This is "Dasher and Anubis", 8 1/2 x 11 Acrylic on Canson board. This is just the grey study underpainting, full color and background coming soon!

Small Fail

OK, I tried to do a miniature portrait of my grandson...but I ended up with a cute little redhead but NOT a good likeness of Logan. So, here is the miniature it is 1 1/2 inches round and will fit in the lockets have been using. Done in Acrylic on Canson paper. Original for sale in locket. Picture 61.

Old God

Here is something I did back in 1990. It is a small nametag/badge based on a clasical statue. "Apollo", 3 1/2 x 2 1/2 (I think), Acrylic on Canson board. Prints available.

Birthday Gifts

Well, for my birthday I got a round and oval matt cutter (yeah!! Finally I can cu them myself). I got several blank white paper and bamboo Japanese fans to paint. I got a book of art by Stephen Hickman. I got a circular saw and bifold doors (to cut and make shelves out of). I think I got a few other things but can't remember right now. I bought myself a miniature violin for mt BJDs (it is in a case and very detailed and nicely done), got them a miniature silver Samovar, and a lovely wardrobe/chest of drawers. Pictures of some of these will betaken sometime soon and posted.

So far it has been a nice day and I am learning to live in the day and not dwell on the past of worry about the future.
