Glen Rose paint out Linda Rupard
Click to contact the artist for more information about this painting.
These are 2 paintings I worked on Sat at the Paint Out in Glen Rose. First painting is one of the doors into the Courthouse & the second is of an old Post Office that really did have a short door, around 4 ft tall. Though I really like studio painting best, I did manage to get 2 small paintings going, even through the tears & sneezing. . I was able to stay in the shade of the big trees & this & wind helped me stay cool enough to stay the day. Glen Rose is a beautiful little town with lots of old buildings, museums , trees & rivers and friendly people. 3 rivers make for lots of places to play on or in the water. We stayed in the Tres Rtrees camp ground , wonderful trees & river access . I would like to live there. !8 artist were painting around town then a show an reception were at the art museum Sat night. Poor Tex was trying to help me get setup in a different place & got stung by a Bumble Bee. That scared me enough that I decided to quit for the day because don't you know that every leaf or bug was a Bee coming for me. I still am unable to crop my photos sorry about that. There is a pie store in town with fresh baked pies, lots of choices & yes I was bad & checked it out. Then near Tres Ruees is a store that makes fresh fried pies & I was bad again & had fried pie. They had many flavors too, even chocolate. Yummy!!! Uh oh wonder if that pie had no calories? We stayed for a week & 1/2 so maybe I didn't do too bad & I did say no most days.

I can't upload photos for some reason but had a wonderful Mother's Day with some of our Kids. Roses & dinner & lots of photos I hope to share later. I was at the LGAA meeting in Granbury & saw a great demo by Nancy Standlee who shared ideas for collage & some funny stories too. I will be going to a paint out in Glenrose Sat if the weather permits. We are thankful for all the rain but hope for a clear Sat.

Psychedelic Cowgirl Linda Rupard
Click to contact the artist for more information about this painting.
This is a painting I started many years ago & didn't like . I put it away & forgot it. I came across it a couple days ago & saw possibilities so I reworked figure, hat & face and moved color around keeping lots of the old color showing through. She can come out of hiding , I think I like her enough to frame now. I will set it up & study for a few days may have to tweak it a bit yet .

Greetings Linda Rupard
Click to contact the artist for more information about this painting.
I have been painting these small paintings that are greeting cards. I am still working on a big bluebonnet painting on canvas board but it is going a bit slower then these smaller paintings are.
I just enjoy doing the smaller ones & the smaller works in my journal so much it is hard to get back to the bigger works.
