Good on you for trying to learn! 6 yrs of my kids in the pep band, and I still don’t get it!

Great one for today! Too funny.

Too funny! It will be a great meal…maybe:)

Your blog is insane. And inspiring.

For a little acorn, a little comment. Good!

Thank you, guys.
This will be explained soon, as the project progresses.

Cheers x

Hmm. I wonder if a roasted acorn is good. The illustration is delicious.

Love the expression. LOL!

That would be an unusual sight seeing a cat with a squirrel snuggled up. Nice thought. This looks like a quilt.

i was getting hungry.

Awwww, so sweet! Beautiful photos from your Sunday post, hope you can make the trip soon!

Cute drawing. I have seen mama dogs feeding baby squirrels.

it's so sweet lo, the painting is charming and the sentiment too. i love the autumn theme.

Aaaw a cutie, I remember it well. Am so glad you aren't hibernating again- but getting out there and spreading your wings!

I always love your bold graphics. Sweet kitty with her little squirrel.

I love that picture of Robin. She looks so happy. I'm glad you two had some adventures together! xo

I love your squirrels!!! And a cute kitty...a bonus! Adorable, Laurel!!!

So cute!Love it:)

Welcome back! I missed your blogging. Will have to wander over to your tiny handmade blog and see you have any updates there. LOVE the acorn needlebook. Very cute and ridiculously so with the squirrel ribbon.

Very cute! The Squirrel ribbon purchase was essential :)

These are marvelous Lolo. I understand the man's recollection of the poodles eyes being black. Oly, the little white poodle I keep sometimes, has coal black eyes. Sometimes I wonder if there is anything behind those eyes. You always put so much emotion in your ravens. They are a delight to see.

You were very brave to tackle the beloved poodle. A touching story, he is pleased! And moved.

The raven too is wonderful. I have only done a few commissions, but I understand totally the disappointment factor. Ah well....

These are wonderful!!!! I agree, you were brave to take on the poodle portrait but it is awesome and his reaction is so touching. Very good!

The poodle turned out excellent; know just what you mean on the *pure white* and *pure black*..... <:) Yep. I do.
St. Peter is very happy here guarding the entry way and the art. He was the perfect finishing piece for oen wall, and I have to commend you on the Live Oak leafs, which are pretty unspectacular in nature; they were depicted excellent.
I might add, the only thing I told Lolo was I want the raven holding the twig of two live oak acorns....and seriously, this is almost EXACTLY what I wanted, but did not want to put extra pressure with *this here, and that there* because I've been thru that!
Thank you!!!! MUCH!

XXOO~~♥
Anne.......and St. Peter.....

holey holy moley!

these are FANTASTIC!!!!

oh the eyes. i see brown in the poodle's eyes but you managed to do your artist tricks so well so yes, they are black! there is so much expression his his (her?) face, lo. what a memory you've created. and you can be sure your cars will be well taken care of forever more

and anne's raven is stunning. how nice to know that you 'aced' it for her, a forever memory for her too. you know how jubilant i am over your leaves, in part for reasons between you and me (what happens in rome stays in rome) :)

great work, lo. you make it look so easy. you are a master artist.

love

That last one made me cry. These are beautiful Lo. I have been thinking of painting a raven, I used to paint them a lot before I went abstract, but you have inspired me. xoxo

Raven-Sister.... we were on the same page today. because I did my HAW post about a very clever Raven...(and a not-so-clever pig)!

You KNOW how your Raven paintings move me.... you capture their mystery, power and wisdom....like no one else. I love the acorn in his mouth.... Anne must have been thrilled when she opened the package....

The poodle is adorable.... (and yes, I can see some brown in his black eyes and a little bit of colour in his white fur....

I am repeating myself.....but it warrants it....your art is on FIRE!

Love,

♥ Robin ♥

The paintings are wonderful. Your work is beautiful. The Old guy and his Poodle brought a tear to my eye. You brought him joy even if it had a couple tears around the edge of that joy.

Whether a desired idea or a memory, you served them both up beautifully. I was especially charmed by Max and his "crusty" owner. Isn't it funny how men are total suckers for small dogs? They think they want a big one but get a small one in their arms and their innate protective instincts instantly emerge. I know. I'm married to one of those guys.

WOWZERS, both are gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love how you touched the heart of the car mechanic. I cried too. LOL Really, a tear or two was there.
Both paintings are great. Love the raven and leaves/acorns. You are so good at what you do!

Your style is always amazing!The raven is wonderful:)

Your paintings always tell such loving and remarkable stories. These are both top notch. Your acorn raven has stolen my heart!

That's the way I felt when I saw the painting of my Samson that you did. somehow you "caught" him - his sammy-ness. I still say hi to him every day in that picture I love it so.

Ah aren't they perfect!!!!!
Two beautiful pieces! I love the eyes on the dogs and you had to use some brown to make them look black! You are so good at eyes dear. Well on just about anything!
Frida's eyes are watching me right now in her calm way.......
Tomorrow I will have a very busy day Hope to do a TT post with Frida in the evening.


How nice both of your "customers" were that satisfied, then you know you hit the right spot!

You are the best!

Love
♥♥♥

Oh nearly forgot......

HAW!!!!

Oh ME oh MY! Lucky, lucky Anne to receive her own beautiful raven! The leaves and acorn are wonderful, and I love that the raven has his head up. Quite regal.

And Max! Such an adorable poodle. You did an amazing job. Isn't it heartwarming and so very rewarding to know that your art touched someone to the very core. Awwwwwwwww.

Oh my goodness this is the most heartwarming post. Both paintings are so beautiful, and i love hearing how much each owner loved them so.

You are amazing to me Lolo, to be able to interpret an idea and even a photo and make it come to life like this. And brave i might add, a commissioned piece would have me stopped like a deer in headlights.

happy animal wednesday!
xoxo

What a grand job you've done Laurel! I always love to see your Ravens and this little poodle has obviously hit the spot! I used to paint children's portraits and remember only too well that nerve wracking moment when handing it over! I think you put so much feeling into your paintings - they are wonderful! x

Thanks so much!!! I love squirrels, chipmunks and acorns, I really enjoyed working on the bright green acorn and the little blue berries against the orange ground. I thought it was fun to put the sweet pea reindeer in sweet pea flowers.I will post some more for this set as soon as I can climb out from under my work.

wow... these are really fantastic. I especially love the horse, so the movement swirling around that piece and the splashes of color, just amazing! I am in awe of your art. Thanks for sharing.

Where were these when I was a horse crazed little girl?! I love the little poofy reindeer. They make me smile!
