I think she’s smiling.
Personally I don’t know about this one.
I mean, where’s the background? Anne says she likes the way the paint looks on the surface of the paper, that she’s playing and having fun and she doesn’t care what I think.
Anne is happily painting Sofie these days.
It’s her current project/obsession.
She is back with the Anneplanne.
It’s stinkin’ hot outside so I’m staying in the house
and doing some PAPERWORK.
okay, here we are again. the basic unit, sort of/almost.
Joe is in the kitchen chopping chard.
we’re expecting company for dinner.
and the dog gets a little snacky.
the dog will do anything for a bite to eat.
oh how she loves her food.
don’t get me wrong.
she’s really quite charming.
Another portrait for you.
It’s Marzipan as Pup. And the photo shows her all grown up. In her boat. I think she wins the hairdo competition.
This is the famous ‘Sam and Louise’ painting (of the famous Sam and the famous Louise). I thought you might be interested in seeing the photo the painting was based on. As you can see, Anne doesn’t do a literal translation. She does capture a certain ‘je ne sais quoi’, (excuse my french) of the subject at hand.
Anne went to Basin Harbor to paint and she took Cookie with her. Cookie didn’t care for the place.
She wasn’t a swimmer and I think she was just homesick. Also Cookie didn’t go for playing ‘catch’ or any of those other stupid dog games.
More of Sofie. Her middle name is Dorothy. In case you’re interested.
Anne just did this one this morning.
She’s back with the Anne Planne.
More on that at a later date.
She did this one from a photograph. She often uses the photograph for inspiration and then gets all wacko with colors. For example we don’t really have a red floor. We do have a big comfy chair on which I am sitting in this picture. Click on the image to see a bigger picture.
This is Sofie. Anne’s first official portrait of the big goofy hound.
Anne thinks Sofie is GORGEOUS and will always be trying to capture that gorgeousness.
Sofie has BIG FEET.
I don’t know what size shoe she wears but, believe me, they’re HUGE.
I don’t like it when she steps on my tail.
Anne says her ears are like velvet.
I don’t know about that.
