HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY! ~ And if you're not wearing at least a little something green today, here's a virtual *pinch* for ya! :p
Here are two more 'Lynxie Trees' done in acrylics in aceo size. I've slowed up on painting them but with the nice weather this week, we have been out in the yard doing some work. Tearing down old fences, putting up new...ouch my aching back! Things are starting to bloom and the grass is greening up, I love it!!

More Lynxie Trees and a Colorful Sunset ~ Ahh, I can hear the spring frogs singing at dusk now and that means that spring is right around the corner! I am so glad, this has been such a long cold hard snowy winter for so many here in the U.S. I know we got way more snow than usual this winter so I'm ready for spring. Back to daylight savings time, don't forget to set your clock ahead one hour this weekend!
Here are three more 'Lynxie Trees' I've painted. I used acrylics, white gesso, medium charcoal pencil, black ink and crystal glitter for the sparklies in the branches. Also, we had an intense sunset the other evening and I had to grab my camera to capture it. That sunset inspired the pinkish sky in the third aceo. I hope everyone is having a great week!

Ooops, I should have mentioned, the barn above is a close-up
detail from the picture below. The pearl paint was reflective and shiny in the light
in this picture.

Spring in the Country ~ I built a country barn and planted a blooming tree in the landscape I posted in my last post. I also trimmed it down to 5 x 7 inches. Today I realized I needed a roof on the barn so I painted it in pearl irridescent acrylics.

The pollen here is so heavy that my green car had turned powdery yellow today! Yes, I'm still aaachooing with allergies too. I hope everyone has a fun and creative weekend!
