Melissa's miniature Rebel Without a Cause

Pink Baby

art: I love these colors...at least it isn't another house Brent!

architecture: hopefully we can find some tenants for the latest project tomorrow....and Wayne changed his mind again. Now he only wants a roof. Apparently my construction estimate wasn't really "nuts" at all.

Lynn's Puppy

art: don't you just love him? it makes me want one. Izzy was very happy today. Her friend Noah bought a gerbil and named it Isabel. Maybe we should opt for the gerbil instead of the dog....

architecture: do I have to?

Silk Painting

art: I have begun to paint on silk. It is a lot of fun, but not very easy. I think if I end up with my own sarong this summer, I'll have suceeded. I need some practice as you can tell. I also need a website. I think I'll work on that today...but I am not motivated. It is not easy to learn a new computer program by yourself. It takes courage to learn anything new. Wait until you see the puppy.

architecture: The profession and all those who practice it are a disappointment to me lately. What are you all trying to prove? I may be finished...

Allen & Stephen's House

12 x 18, watercolor

art: Allen's house:

Confession: this is a 2-day painting.

Allen, let me know what you think. Sorry I bypassed the sketches I promised you. Your house is so beautiful I just wanted to paint it. I am usually not one for symmetry, but it definitely works here! It isn't too late for changes, so any comments are appreciated. (The appearance of lines that divide it in thirds is actually due to my crappy computer skills.)

architecture: Thomas Residence CDs almost finished...OK as finished as they are going to be for now!

Mad Hatter

9 x 12, watercolor and ink

The Mad Hatter Dock Party...that warm weather can't come fast enough!

Purple House

5 x 7, mixed media

art: I want to live in one of these houses....I am going to print sets of notecards. Let me know if you are interested! I only have a few more in me, but I will give you a break for the next few days.

architecture: Does anyone know of an inexpensive way to replace FPE electrical panels? If I can find a way, we may be able to keep a commercial project...

Dark Pink House

5 x 7, watercolor

Yellow House

5 x 7, mixed media

art: I'm going to work on a house portrait this evening. It is a traditional brick house in the winter. I also hope to get some time to work on my tribute to Anthropologie. I am addicted to that catalog; I even had my hair cut like the model in the latest edition. I hope they don't stop sending it since I have never ordered anything!

architecture: I finished a pricing set today....probably not worth posting! North Lake Residence will be finished this week too, hopefully!

PS almost ready to take the exam!!!!

Blue House

5x7, mixed media

Pink House

art: OK so I have been a little bit of a slacker. I have been having trouble with scanning. The new one should arrive in the mail in the next few days. I'm very excited tonight...I am going to be painting the cutest little puppy! I really want one, but know that taking care of it would push me over the limit right now. Any ideas?

architecture: very busy which is great...it is just school delays and sick cats that are keeping me from accomplishing all that I need to!
