- Kay
- I am an artist, I raised and showed German Shepherd dogs for 25 years, I graduated from University Of Utah in 2009 with a long awaited BFA, I have been married for 33 yrs. and have 2 sons, Shane is 32 and Thomas is 29. I have 1 pug, 4 cats, and 2 horses, 18 chickens and now Amy the black German Shepherd.
I so love the background to this work almost an abstract in its own right. Great.
ReplyDeleteTotally cool, I should have paid attention in art class.
ReplyDeleteGreat painting! I think we have some of these in one of our buildings. They're sort of black and white like this guy. Hmmm...the word "borer" can't be a good bug to have in a building!!
ReplyDeleteactually the larvae bored into deadfall alder trees and help with the decaying of the wood. They are actually good guys. They apparently like painted buildings to hang out on. They are only in Utah in July then back to the NW.
ReplyDeleteYes Ryan, you should have!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful job on this Kay. So much detail and depth.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the visit and good wishes. When it is time, the cataract surgery is a piece of cake. It was the retina that was destroying my vision and the more complicated surgery. It is so wonderful to see it improving.
