Collectible Fine Art Fantasy - sold
Original Collage / Montage 6.5"x 9.5"

" Well SPRING is finally here!" I have decided to list
some work that has been my private stash- Spring
Cleaning. This is one of my fantasy collages from a
series called "Dreamscapes". I began doing these
in the late 60's as studies for future paintings. Each
one meticulously created to give the impression of
a photo taken in a dream world. Hope you enjoy
seeing a few of these."

"Well, I'm excited. I shipped the teddy portraits
yesterday. I hope you have enjoyed seeing them.
I love this little guy. I named him Frank because
he has a certain look that reminds me of
my dad."

The Teddy Bear event is at the Rocking Horse
Gallery in Fredericksburg, Va. I have been told
that it is the oldest Teddy Bear store/gallery in
the country.

"Well, I am back with more teddy portraits.
I hope you aren't getting tired of seeing them.
Mildred or Millie for short, is a small gal that
stands about 10"tall. She has worn leather
pads. Most of her hair has been loved
away but she doesn't seem to mind.

" Rose Red "
Painting A Day - Collectible Fine Art Still Life
Original Oil on Canvas 6"x 8"

" Something different today.
This is a small plastic doll that belonged to my
mother. You can move her head back & forth
and her legs move (like walking). Her arms can
also be moved and her eyes open and close. I
named her Rose Red but I never knew what mum
called her. She is very small, about 4.5". This was
the only doll that I knew my mum had that was
hers. I don't know much else about her but she
is still cherished."

"As you can see, I have been concentrating on the
teddy portraits. Almost finished with the new series.
This is Barney. He was rescued from a skip (dumpster)
in England. One of my sweetest little fellows. He was
a bit of a mess but recently went to the doctor for
a cleaning. He still has some dark spots and a bit of a
wobbly head but I think it adds to his character."

have been working on for the Teddy Bear event in April.

"
Hi there! "
"This is a little war time bear named Tillie. Although
she is a bit scruffy and has one ear that is a mess
she has the most wonderful sense of humor.
I enjoy her so much because every time I look at her,
she makes me smile."
