"MIracles Happen To Those WHo Believe In Them." Bernard Berenson

This is a painting I did three years ago now which has sold.  It's always been a favorite image of mine. It is available as a print in my Etsy shop.  www.catherine47.etsy.com It's called Sleep Study.  It's available in 5x7 and 8x10

 I am actually looking for a miracle today.

Daisy's Weekend Retreat -New Painting now available

 Sam is on a 7 day vacation so I wont be back in the studio until July 7th. This is my newest painting I finished just in time for the break.  In my excitement to post this piece I didn't shoot it square on in the photo which is why you see a bend on the right corner but it is straight in real life! Anyway, I really got lost in really in creating this one.  Daisy works in the city but every Friday she heads for the Island and to her Grandmother's house.  I use to love playing badminton on the Cape.  I wish our backyard was big enough to set up a net.

This piece is 16x12 painted on stretched canvas and the sides are painted.

  I wish you all a great weekend and 4th.  Sam and I will be cruising around next week.

King Of Hearts-Commission

My client wanted a King in the likeness of her husband to hang next to  The Queen Of Everything which she had purchased months ago.  16x20 on a wood panel. 

Next week I will be posting two new pieces before I take a 7 day break to care for my son Sam who will be on his annual vacation from his residential school.  I have an ambitious week planned.  Hopefully he will be feeling good and I can take him on many adventures.  Thanks for stopping by.
