Contest Car Tracks

I am so excited to share with you some of my latest paintings.  As most or all of you know a few weeks back I ran a contest for new themes.  I was overwhelmed by the response and the ideas! They were phenomenal!  It was difficult but I was able to narrow it down to two winners - a boy and a girl theme.  I have finished the boy theme - a lovely woman by the name of Lori came up with car tire treads.  I just loved the idea - but I wasn't sure how I was going to do it.  Beyond that, Lori has two adorable little boys, so she ordered an additional canvas.  Being a mother of two boys myself, I understand the need at times for "2" of something.  I struggle initially with how I was going to incorporate the names - but after some brainstorming and playing around I got it and I am so happy with the outcome.  Without further ado - Jack's and Ben's Tracks...





Thank you again Lori, for your wonderful idea!  See contests are so fun!  

Coming up next Tuesday a painting I did goes up for auction.  One of my first clients, Amy Taylor, is the author of the blog below - she is a stay at home mom, like me, being called to do something greater than herself.  Here is the link if you want to check it out.  All proceeds will go to the International Justice Mission.  


Thanks again and have a great day!
