AZ Church Linda Rupard



Click to contact the artist for more information about this painting.
This is a watercolor with Ink of a church in  Sedona AZ that I have painted many times.   So much fun to go to Sedona & get inspired.    They have lots of artist there & many galleries.    The color just makes you want to paint, photo, sketch or just  walk & see all that beautiful color .

Skull Collage Linda Rupard





This is a collage I started before we moved & it has been lost.   Found it & got excited about working on it again.    I have worked on it most of the day not   finished yet but needs a bit more work  before I can call it finished.     I will study it tonight & hopefully finish it tomorrow.   Used lots of paper from the Cowboy & Indians magazine so lots of western objects can be found in it.   I also used some rice paper on top of the head that had squares in it that are more transparent in the center, so some of the under painting shows through that part.

Chicken Soup Linda Rupard

This is an acrylic on cradle board with edges painted so no framing needed.    Painted from a still life set up & some imagination.    Still needs to be varnished & then wire attached inside the cradle  to eye screws.   This will help the board to  hang flush to wall & makes it easier to keep painting straight on the wall.

Girl in Checks Linda Rupard



Well I am trying again this is not easy burrrr  .    Third time around again, I don't like this new format for my blog.   Guess I just have to keep on trying & maybe I will get er done.    I  have the new Spring 2012 Journaling Magazine & I found an article about a great artist Adriana Almanza.   I love the way she does her eyes in her Doll Dreams article.   So I had to try the eyes in a photograph I have & it was fun to do.   I like the muted backside too so have a photo of it also.   I may have to do this one on canvas or watercolor paper.

Bluebonnet Barn Linda Rupard


I hope I  can figure out this new blog system that blogspot has come up with.    When you don't have computer savvy all changes are a chore.    This is the third time around for me to try to get a post on my blog.     This is a bluebonnet painting in acrylic  done on canvas.   Painted from photos taken in Fredricksburg TX,    I think on the Willow Loop.     Many more in the works hope to post soon if I can get them on this new blog system.

Zentangle Merlin's Chair Linda Rupard

This is a Zentangle from my sketchbook. We had to go to Lubbock today so I worked on my Sketchbook on the way home. I started this Zentangle with an abstract drawing of a chair.

Strawberry Pie Linda Rupard

We were eating in a restaurant and Tex had already cut one bite of his Strawberry Pie before I saw what an interesting painting it would make. I don't like Strawberry so Tex had this piece & we took the other piece home for later. The next time we went there it they had chocolate or coconut pie so being my favorite pies I eat one & Tex took the other home for me. Wonder why I didn't think of taking photo of them? Maybe my fork was too busy. That is really sharing , letting someone have you chocolate pie. Yummy! Wonder why the chocolate & coconut pies are so much smaller pieces then the red pies. Um
