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.

Taking notes 6"x6" oil

Reading from a book and taking notes, we have all done this at some point.   This tiny three ring binder was my mothers and probably dates from 1950 or before, the pages are all yellowed.   It fits in a pocket.

Sunset in Hawaii 6"x6" oil

During WWII my Father wrote letters to his mother and she in return would write about what was going on with the family and neighbors.   After he met my Mother she took over the letter writing mainly because Dad's hand writing was so illegible.   That Grandmother died before I got to know her  so those letters are what I have of her.

Writing poetry 6"x6"

While looking for something in the studio I came across a box of items from my Great Aunt and within the box was this pair of unusual eye glasses.    They were two pieces of 1/8" flat glass that were held together with brass fittings and the side pieces hinged in the middle for folding and on the tips were round bakelite or amber discs.   There was also one of those old notebook journals that had some hand written poetry in side.   These glasses are the type that if the light was just right they would look like two white discs in front of the eyes.

The letter 6"x6" oil

Over years many of you have gotten letters of importance that have changed or influenced your lives.  This was one that did that for me.   It is not important who it is from or why but that it changed the way I felt about life.   The internet has changed that form of communication on so many levels.

The Thank-you note 6"x6" oil

I love this little thank you note.   Besides being simple and pretty the hand written message was warm and heart felt.   I have had it on my desk pushing it around here and there and just cannot put it away.  Painting it might allow me to let go.   I just happened to have some berries that look just like the ones on the note!     Coupled with my old fashioned calligraphy pen... voila la!

Pen and ink 6"x6" oil

This is a pair of tortoise shell glasses from the 1920's.   I have used them a number of years back with an earlier prescription but switched to something else because I was afraid I would wear out the parts and they are probably not replaceable because all the findings are gold.   But they are nice to look at.
