A bit ago, I did the Starving Artist tag, and one of the questions was: 6. What’s the favorite piece you ever made and why its special? Annie and Her Horse No 1 made my very short list of two favorite paintings. I sold Annie several years ago. She’s now living in Germany with a few more of my paintings. I’ve always missed having her hanging on my wall, but I never thought I could or would recreate this painting.

Ever since I answered that question in the tag, I haven’t been able to forget about Annie, tho. It started as a small voice inside my head, but it grew louder, and louder. Finally, I couldn’t take it anymore, and I got to work.

Recreating the painting went much smoother than I thought it would, but it longer than I thought it would. Part of it was my fault because I wasn’t all that comfortable recreating the horse. I ended up redoing his face and eye a couple times before I got it the way I intended. The time spent was well worth it to have the painting back in my life once again.

If you’re thinking what is splined canvas? It looks similar to this..

Oh, Sweet Sunday Annie and Her Horse No 2 WIP on the easel

If you’ve been following me for a while now, you might recognize this painting from 2010 (I think?). Annie and her horse have been living a splendid life in Germany, along with a few other of my paintings, for several years now. Ever since the day I packaged her up to ship out, I’ve missed having her in my life. So, this is what I’m doing this week..

Can I pull it off? I have no idea, but I’m trying anyway. You’ll have to stay tuned to see what happens.

I had a crazy dream about someone I knew long ago. Someone I haven’t thought about in years. It was so real, and I couldn’t shake it. All day I thought about the dream. Out of curiosity, I did a Goggle search, and found a phone number, physical and PO Box address, and also a FB page. Yes, I looked, but no, I’m not sending a friend request, calling or writing. What would I say? “Hey!! Remember me? Yeah, I know we haven’t seen each other in 15 years, but I had a dream about you. There were bad people chasing me, and you saved me.” haha Nah!! It would be way too weird. Best to just forget it ever happened..my dream, and the past.

Katherine Jeanne Wood - Masked Girls Series 02

Series of 20 masked girls on chipboard that I completed last week. I only have 15 chipboard left, so it will probably end up being a series of 35 before I’m finished. I enjoy working small.

Oh Sweet Sunday

Annie and Her Horse

I’ve been meaning to retake photos of this painting forever. The photos of this painting looked horrible. I was taking photos out on my back porch, and it would come out pink or too dark. Now, I have a simple way to shoot all my paintings indoors. I’ll do a blog post of it sometime to show you how easy it is.
