Here is my latest painting. I call it BrownDog says "Huh?" I love it; every dog owner knows this look! The red background is the best; very bold and bright. Love it! Contact me for more information.

I finished a peice today titled BrownDog says 'Huh?' Its a cutie! I am having trouble getting a decent digital image but look for it tomorrow or the next day. Thanks for looking!

Wow! What a great response from the Humane Society Auction! I cant wait to hear how they did overall. Dont forget, not everyone is able to provide a four legged friend a new home but most can help by donating blankets or warm towels (for bedding), canned food or even office supplies to help our two legged friends in the office. Check out the Humane Society's web page to see what they need the most. I am flattered by the emails and hope to have my new web site up soon; until then I will post new work here in my blog for super easy access. They go so fast, I cant keep up! But thats a good thing--you keep asking and I will keep painting! So by request, I have posted images of the yellowdog pieces I currently have available. I have several in process but if you have a yellowdog(or brown dog or black dog or even a kitty!) just drop me an email and I will gladly try to incorporate some personal details of your best friend into a piece for your review. No promise to buy needed---if you love it you can buy it! If you dont love it, I will find it a home at a later date but appreciate new ideas! Again, here are the pieces I have currently available; all of these peices are on wood and of varying sizes. Please email me with any questions at yellowdogart@aol.com !

Yellowdog on Autumn Stroll. This is one of my favorites. The colors look much brighter than this image portrays (sorry, still mastering the digital camera).
Super yellowdog! Yellowdog actually saved his arch nemesis, Chippy the Chipmunk, so I thought he deserved this. Do you have a super yellowdog?!

Yellowdog is definitely a boy but pink being so "in" we had to give it a try. This peice was actually one of two done for a customer to choose from. This is my neices' favorite.
This is the smallest peice listed; I like this little guy! Enjoy! And dont forget to support your local animal shelter and please send me an email and tell me what you think or what you would like to see.

Wow, it has been so long since my last post, I had a lot of trouble remembering my password! Yeesh! I like keeping a blog so I have no idea why I am so terrible at updating this. Oh, well. Try try again.

Work is about to get crazy busy. I think I am getting burnt out on this position. I dont know how much longer I can continue with these same battles. Usually I am refreshed and ready to go but this time I am still feeling beat up and kinda of pissy about everything.

Yellow Dog is having major allergy attacks so I worry about him. He looks soooo pitiful and all I can do is drug him--which I hate! Poor fella. He was also bit by a snake last Thursday. For crying out loud! Its Vermont--what the hell is a snake like that doing in my yard?!? He is ok. He can be a momma's boy at times but he is pretty damn tough.

As much as I hate to I should get back to work. I didnt sleep well last night so Im exhausted today and I am fighting off a head ache. A smart person would go home and start fresh tomorrow. But not me!

Lets see if I can do better at this.....time will tell....

My computer has really had me stressed out lately. I was soooo lucky with it for so many years I guess I cant complain but I also cant figure out how to finally fix the damn thing. Everyone seemed to think I needed to reinstall windows so I backed EVERYTHING up and I couldnt do the reinstall. Then people told me I probably have a virus and need to take care of that first. Ofcourse they say I need to buy new anti virus software which comes with new firewall software--all of which I have but for some reason they think I need all this new stuff. Hmmmm.... Who is this "they" and "people" I am talking about you may ask. Its a combo of friends and coworkers and even the company I bought my computer from. I just dont know what to do. I will try two more things than I may have to bring in some hired help! I was moving right along on my web site until this happened. Wish me luck! I want to get this taken care of so I can actually go back to PAINTING!!!

*AAARRRRGH*
Things were going so well and now there is something up with my computer at home. For some time now, depending on what I was doing, my mouse would freeze up for about 20 seconds. Last night my computer was soooooo slow. It was slow to close windows and locked up on me several times. It was terrible. I dont know if its a virus or maybe all my web site work has bogged down my faithful but not-so-new computer. I have used PhotoShop a lot lately, so Im hoping thats all it is. I have to say, my computer has been very very very good to me thus far and I have been amazingly lucky when it comes to viruses--this would be my first. Gosh, I hope thats not it. Wish me luck. I really really really dont want to go through the process of buying and hooking up a whole new system.

Ok, so my ass kicking has slowed down some on my site but Im still excited! We had a major upgrade this past weekend here at work and when I ran something today all hell broke loose. *sorry shawn* So Im sitting here wishing I could go home and work on my web site. I have other stuff to do but I cant focus since the more pressing stuff is staring at me from my email screen--someone actually yelled at me (via caps). Whatever. It will all be fixed soon enough. I probably would have been distracted anyways today.

How about I give you a little preview of my newer (not newest--Im getting there) pieces. And when I say "little" preview, I mean "little" so I can show you my new thumb nail skills. here goes....

Doo be doo be doo...
Im sitting here listening to Jaime Cullum and kicking ass on my web site!! Thats right, I finally mastered the thumb nail things and have almost finished turning my latest 300 pieces into itty bitty images. Yes, I said 300. I know, Im terrible. I guess I just couldnt motivate myself when I knew I was going to have to wrestle with my web site. But FINALLY I feel like I can catch up and stay caught up. Wish me luck! I still have plenty to do but I least I feel like Im getting tons done. Back to kicking ass and listening to sexy Jaime...
