pics of the boys - NC show updates

we've been breaking out the camera on the boys again now that we are out every day and the weather is nice again. -- i know u are all have withdrawals of moose and stoney pics.

stoney (aka mr. bones) LOVES the water. we talked to stoney's god parents often (his foster mommy and daddy who saved him and took such good care of him until he found us for his forever home) -- and it is rare for greyhounds to really be so crazy over water, swimming, dips in the pond, etc. so stoney's love for the water makes us laugh!! he seems to out of the place in the water but we simply can't keep him out - HE LOVES IT!!!! now.. stoney's love for the water combined with his brothers ability to continually show him all the things he shouldn't be doing made for one of our funniest stoney pics to date. --- below is a pic looking out to our hot tub cover --- which we have had to replace two previous times (and going on a third) because moosey (aka the mooseinator) likes to spend his afternoons on top of the hot tub cover -- even though every morning we take dog beds out to the porch and there are outdoor couches and chairs for him as well. let's just say if ceasar came to our house scott and i would be in BIG TROUBLE for letting him rule the roost. ;-)

okay... so the hot tub cover after a rain with it's continual DIP (from the moo) makes for the absolute worst pool ever - but stoney.. apparently VERY ready for his trip to the pond shows he is nothing if not resourceful..





given the choice between hot tub cover and pond however... stoney says i'm outta here...





take me to the real thing....






and of course little baby moosey is just having fun no matter where he goes...





so those are some of the latest pics of the boys over the past few days. i know i know... best looking boys ever!!!


okay so i have a few minutes to do a quick update on the l.a. and n.c. shows i had over the past month. we made some great connections with additional upscale furniture companies who fell in love with my art. Below is a couple of shots of one of the new companies we are working with for the sale of my fine art giclee line. i am working on creating a custom line for a new company which will be available through them solely - this is something i am VERY excited about and something i am wanting to do more of -- exclusive lines through seperate companies.












we made connections with several top design firms, and architects throughout the U.S. who have added me to their portfolio so i am very excited about a couple of new projects that we've been discussing. one including a 40 story high rise development that wishes to showcase both my originals (in the lobby and corridors) and selections from my giclee prints throughout.

we are continuing to work very hard to build my line of fine art giclees - they receive rave reviews and i am extremely proud of what we are putting out. i owe HUGE kudos to a hubby that puts in 110% too in that department.

latest original abstract painting - UFC 83 matt & georges

hi boys and girls! took the boys for a long walk this morning to the pond. stoney took his morning swim while his brother bounded through the hills of snake grass that is taller than he is.


so if u watched UFC 83 u saw my boyfriend hottie matt sera have his ass handed to him by my other boyfriend georges st. pierre "the ass" -- who has the finest butt in UFC history --- or as i also call him frency! i didn't chose a side this time before the fight.. i couldn't bring myself to do it. as u know (if u read my blogs) 99% of the time i decide who will win by the fighters HF (hotness factor).... and since i could't decide because they are both equally smokin' i didn't.


you can watch matt sera's post interview fight here and u can watch the ass's post interview fight here (girls u may want to watch just to listen to him.. LOVE his accent!)


below is a painting i completed the middle of last month it was suppose to exhibit in high point but was accidentally left behind in the gallery so it will be exhibiting for the first time publically at the artist project this week in chicago.

reloaded - original abstract art painting

FINALLY!!!! the past few days have been absolutely gorgeous! the boys have been very thankful as we are back to our twice a day walks. this has been the longest/coldest winter i remember in a long time -- very glad it's over.


i've been very busy painting in the studio creating new works for the artist project show in chicago. the space is small - 10 x 10 so only a few works can show at a time... just deciding on which to hang, and which to put in storage.


below is a one of my latest... finished awhile ago but recently photographed (as with all i list). titled - 'reloaded' - enJOY!
