 Happy Halloween to all!
"Oreo" is painted on a deep gallery wrapped canvas. 
"A meow massages the heart" is written on the sides.  This one is painted especially for cat-lovers.

 "Sylvia's Song" is one of the largest oils I've ever painted and the only triptych.  A triptych is a paneled painting divided into three sections. Usually triptychs were used as early Christian altar pieces.
"Sylvia's Song" was a bit tricky to install, thanks goes to my husband!

As the weather is cooling down I can't help but feel some Christmas spirit rumblings in my soul.  I love the fall as it ends one season and ushers in jolly Christmastime...my favorite!  People visiting my home studio are astonished to see the Halloween and fall decorations sitting right beside my new Christmas paintings.  Ah, that's one part of being an artist that I love.......celebrating more than one season at a time!
My chosen holiday subject to paint this year is snowmen.  I began painting them in July! "Bluebird" is special because this snowlady loves birds, looks like she's trying to coax the bluebird to visit the nest she is holding.
"Bluebird" will be on sale at Smellie Bloomers' Christmas Open House November 14, 2010.  Inquiries may come to me at kbunn@ec.rr.com
