Painting again after years. Widow, 99% vegan, a little aspergerish. I do a little permaculture. I speak some Spanish, Esperanto, and this one. Slave to orange tabby Butternut. Concerned about the planet, concerned that I'm becoming a misantrope.

This really captured my attention. The apple core seems bouncy and cheerful! I like the greens, yellows and browns, and the glistening seeds.

To me, the brushwork and gradations look like egg tempera. Lovely!

Basset hound graphite drawing.

Basset hound graphite drawing.

I wasn't going to post any old art (from my past art life), but this is a #graphite pencil drawing of my basset hound that I still miss even though she's been dead for a lot of years. Oh, back then I signed my art with my maiden name Moon.

I love that bokeh effect in the background.

I wish I could double-like. I just love the play of light and shadows.

This is a practice Quarter horse, after the 'ideal' one that Orren Mixer painted. Lots of different breed associations had him paint their ideal horse. He was incredible.

I was doing portraits that I liked and then did this one. He is stiff as a board. But at least this stiff has interesting light falling across him.

Looks so delicate. It's lovely.

Oil on board. Mark Twain. Using Luberon red earth from Rublev, some diox. violet and white, mostly.

It's absolutely superb.

After Rembrandt self-portrait, by Cindy McKee

I did a Rembrandt self-portrait, oil on canvas. This summer and fall (2024) I've been getting back into art.
