Love is an orange crescent moon

Friday and Sunday.
I have had this canvas since I lived in CA in 2003. It had a painting on it I had done, but never really liked. I covered it up, for a fresh start.
It has been waiting for quite some time. But on October 30th, Inspired by the colors of the ocean, the fresh air and gorgeous orange crescent moon set I saw over the pacific ocean. My recent vacation to Laguna Beach and warm southern sun! These are the motions behind the painting. Canvas size 4 x 4 , my motto: just paint!

My Constant Companion.
This is my personal Favorite, my moon and stars. If you know me, and my art you know I have a thing for them. If your new to my blog, well now you know. You can often see a crescent moon and star in many of my images. My affection for the moon began as a child, as most things do. I always imagined my mom was the moon and the first 2 stars that appeared were me and my daddy. I vividly remember blowing kisses to the moon.

Angel 6 "Hope"

I love love love this little Hope Angel drawing. I was just sitting in my art studio when I grabbed a pencil and sketched out this angel. It was just after Halloween, and I needed some hope. It was a quick drawing, i'd say something like "it just flowed out of me" which is trite but true! I colored her in there she was, this was shortly after i added the hot pink in my hair. i liked doing this little drawing so much I decided to do another one. This was right around election time, so the air was electric. There was hope in the air of our country and it reflected in me emotionally.
