Remember Trayvon

 "Remember Trayvon" is an unusual Easter Challenge entry for me as well anybody else to enter since this actually a tragedy that happened to a seventeen-year-old male that made national news.   This egg gift contains a bag of Skittles candy, pop candy, stickers for the egg, and not-to-forget a Gospel tract.  You may wonder why a Gospel tract.  Yes, I can tell you why I want to put a Gospel tract in this egg gift is that Jesus came to die on earth for our sins so that we can one day spend with Him in Heaven.  This tract mentions about the Gift called  Salvation which is available for everybody - especially to those who will accept it.  It is a real concern of mine about Trayvon and other youths who gets both shot and killed where they spend Eternity.   Now, this is our responsibility to both live as a good example and tell them about Jesus, and this "Special Gift" called Salvation.

Eeney-Meeney-Miney-Mo

 
Do you remember the times when you said "Eeney-Meeney-Miney-Mo, catch a person by the toe.  If he hollers, let him go.  My mother told me to pick the best one."  Well, one day this past week, I was in a convenience store staring at the doughnuts and other pastries stored in a lit showcase while picking out which one that I wanted the most.  Then again, I both stared and glanced at those doughnuts and trying to decide by saying  "Eeney-Meeney-Miney-Mo".   Needless to say, I did not purchase anyone of them because I told myself that I need anyone of these doughnuts like I do a hole in my head.  Well anyway, I did want to get at least an idea of what I wanted to paint.

Color Of The Year Challenge - 2010

Here is my painting of this challenge called "Color Of The Year - 2012".  The color is called "Tangerine Tango" which is a very popular color that is more like a warm red or scarlet.  There were several ideas that I have wanted to do, but  I chose to do poppies since painting flowers are among my best subjects to paint.

After The Ball (A Mardi Gras-related painting)

Hey Everybody,

Guess what big event around is "around the corner" along the Gulf Coast region?  It's Mardi Gras!  Here is a painting that has the items that depict Mardi Gras especially after one of the balls.  I have already re-posted it on YardSellr tonight.  I did this picture about eighteen years ago when both my husband and I lived in Mobile, Alabama as better known as the "Mother of The Mystics".
