"10 letter word for glasses" 8" x 8" oil

Crossword puzzles, what can I say...  My parents always had one or two in process.   It was something to do and use as a distraction when they were in the doctors office or hospital, then nursing home.   I miss working the puzzles with them.

"23 down" 18" x 18" x 1.5" oil on wood panel

These are fun to do and especially when they are this large.   I love making all the little squares a different color value.

"Solving the Puzzle" 6" x 6" oil

This crossword is from the Monday paper which I think is the easiest one to work and I can hardly get through it!  My parents were really good at this but evidently it is not in my DNA.   I can paint a good picture of it... does that count?   But I'm really good at Sudoku and Jigsaws puzzles!

"Green Cup with a crossword" 6" x 6" oil

 
Many of you work crosswords.   I like puzzles but this word challenge is beyond my ability.     I can  master the simple ones but beyond that it is  up to you.

All of you who are painters will figure out the answer to that clue.   Hint:  it starts with a c and ends with a p.    It is fabulous here today, sunny and almost 60° and I should be at the dog park with my little one.    Happy Easter!!

What is that word I'm looking for? 8" x 8" oil

This time I painted the crossword without making an extensive grid!   And it did take less time and I like the looser look.

"Finishing a Crossword" 8" x 8" oil

The process in which I get the crossword grid accomplished is so tedious that tomorrow I am going to try another approach.   I started this painting two days ago but got interrupted with a house matter.

Working a crossword in ink 18" x 18" oil

 Some people are good enough to work crosswords in ink!  Never in a hundred years would I ever be able to do this because I need a big eraser.  Maybe I should show a puzzle with a huge eraser!   This is in my larger 18" square format, painted on wood with 1.5" painted wood sides so it does not need a frame.

Coffee with crossword 8" x 8" oil

These crossword puzzle paintings are larger (8 in x 8 in) because I ran out of smaller panels but I like the larger format and think it works well for this series.   Three of my favorite things to paint, coffee, glasses and crossword puzzles.   I'm a happy painter!

Hard crossword 8" x 8" oil


There is nothing better than working a puzzle with a cup of coffee.   Whenever I know I am going to be waiting somewhere I take a puzzle to work.   It sure beats looking up emails on the phone! and it's  relaxing... at least to me anyway.

Easy Crossword 8" x 8" oil

The only crossword I can work is an easy one.   As they progress each day in the newspaper they get harder to work and I can rarely get past Tuesday.   My parents were pretty darn good at it and it was the one thing we would work on together.   I'm a Sudoku girl.

Working a crossword puzzle 18"x18" oil on wood

You will notice that this is a larger piece, 18" square and it is painted on a cradled wood panel.   This is part of my series of larger works that are to go to a gallery.   Haven't selected the gallery yet but I am having fun working on the pieces!

Crossword puzzle 6"x6" oil

Working crossword puzzles was something my parents did all the time and when they were alive I worked them too.   My Dad was still good at knowing the older pat answers even in his last months of Alzheimers.   I worked them for a while but now that they are no longer around I don't seem to have the motivation.   I still love the idea of working it with someone else, the back and fourth.
