A dip and a pirouette
A plié perhaps in jest
But whoever knew
My dog Stew
Could twirl and spin without a cue.
I woof, howl, and clap
I’m a Canine that’s up to bat
It’s the bottom of the inning
And we’re this close to winning…
Our rivals?!…. Oh!, they’re Cats!

Mighty Minis celebrates small works with a big impact. Each artist contributes three original 8” × 8” pieces, creating a vibrant and visually dynamic exhibition.
Just finished working on three pieces for Mighty Minis put together by The Creative Well in Virginia Beach. I’ve been doing these faces for awhile and I like them quite a bit. The show opens May 9th and will showcase 3 mini artworks from artists for $125 each. Pictured below are Grinnin’ 1, 2, and 3 (acrylics on wooden panels - work in progress photo).
wrapped and ready
Past few days have been a great time to get outside and play!!!
There are tales that tell of piercing eyes
That hide behind a foliage green
A gaze that can send a chill through spine
Quite a haunting scene
Stay on these trails
Don’t you stray
A howl will warn you so…
The swamp conceals so many things
Be careful where you roam
The moon sits high up in the sky
And the fog it settles low
The howl you hear
Will make it clear
You’re way too far from home
Came across some old photos of me planning my downers. Faces that were full of embarrassment, judgment, and criticisms. Some awkwardness and some indifferent or fatigued. Bright and moody and quite aghast in their relation to one another.
