Norma Wilson Original Oil Ready Rooster Chicken Art


Today's post is a 12" by 12" original oil on wrap around canvas with sides painted. It is currently on auction on ebay. Hope you all had a good Halloween. I spent the evening in my studio painting as I had been out and about running errands all day. It was pretty quiet in my cul de sac after the intial flurry of trick or treaters. My son Andrew did not dress up this year as he is too "old" for it now. I remember that was sad to be too old for something so fun. I bought him a bunch of candy though. The problem is when it is in the house....the little kid in me can't resist! Hope your week goes well. I just heard we change the clocks this coming weekend....didn't we just do that???? Where is the time going? Click to Bid!

Norma Wilson Original Oil White Irish Cow Greeting


Today's post is an 18" by 18" oil on wrap around canvas with sides painted. It is currently on auction on eBay. I spent most of today working on a commission and feeling kind of frustrated and fearful of not being able to live up to my own expectations on it. That led to more frustration and fear as those kind of thoughts tend to do. I just read a prayer on another artists blog that was just what I needed to hear this evening. Tomorrow is another day and things have a way of looking better in the new light of day. I'll leave you with St. Theresa's prayer.....
St Theresa's Prayer

.May today there be peace within.
May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be.
May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith.
May you use those gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you....
May you be content knowing you are a child of God....
Let this presence settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love.It is there for each and every one of us.

Since this past weekend was such a busy painting weekend, today was my time to catch up in my office and on the phone as well as do some shopping for art supplies. I am excited to be going to Raleigh, North Carolina to stay with my friend, Susan, and to attend Art Of The Carolinas. We are taking a workshop with Bob Burridge on Thursday called "Loosen Up And Paint Like Crazy!". It looks like it will be very inspirational and fun!

Today was a busy day with errands all morning. I got a new battery for my camera and it is working now. It was my first new battery since I got my camera four years ago!

Norma Wilson Original Oil Pansies From My Garden Art


Today's painting is a 5" by 7" painting on wrap around canvas with sides painted making framing optional. Pansies amaze me the way they survive into the winter months around here and can be seen poking out of the snow sometimes. I enjoy placing them in a little bud vase and painting them in sitting by my studio window. Today was a busy day running errands, painting in my studio, and a friend of my son was here trying to fix my other lap top which crashed for the second time about a month ago. Tomorrow will be another busy day volunteering at a gallery in Portsmouth where I have some of my paintings displayed. I am looking forward to being out and about but then I will be back here tomorrow evening to paint some more. I have a new commission of three adorable little children to begin this weekend and a portrait of a little yorkie. Much to do and not enough time to sleep! Guess I'd better go to bed now! Have a great day! Click to Bid!
