Coffee Time - miniature acrylic painting

I dont know about you all but my day does not start without a hot cup of Java. Limited to 2 cups a day, but if I dont get my coffee and 10 min in the morning - just dont talk to me. ;) I think that is why my day starts at 4:30am, just so I can have a little quiet time before the chaos of the day starts. This is how I fill my extra time before my family gets up. Hope you enjoy 2.75 * 2.75 inch acrylic on stretched canvas - includes mini display easle SOLD

Cherub and Daisies - Still Life Miniature Painting

SOLD Hi everyone, Hope everyone is staying warm. I thought I would try and get this one in before the big Hockey game starts. For those who dont know it is the Heritage classic an outdoor professional NHL game between Calgary and Montreal. Only the second time being played in Canada! Well it is -30 celcius with the wind chill so it will be interesting to see who will be victorious without to many injuries. I dont even like hockey but it is part of my life since getting married so...i thought I would share my pain... ;) lol Anyways Hope you like the new mini 2.75 * 2.75 inch on stretched canvas comes with a mini display easel ***SOLD** Tammy

Down to the Minute

I am such a happy, passionate person that when I look at these somber/exhausted woman pieces I really question my inner peace so I am going to Try and paint happier woman from now on.. :) Well, we will see anyways ;)
