so this is the reference photo i took for this little piece..i needed to have one more ballet painting for the Addison Bakehouse...Joan has several of my ballet works in her back space and wanted one more so i used my daughter's old ballet shoes..not mine.. i took ballet but NOT toe!!.. pretty sure these were jen's..and i hung them in my kitchen to photograph them...fun!!

so here's this piece I've been working on...I may be done...but as I look at this, I think I need to tweak a thing or two...never done til it's over-done, right??...i have a show...did i mention I have a show coming up in may at the hoosier salon???...they need 10-15 new pieces and i'm ON IT!!!!...since my hubby has been sick for the last two days, I have plenty of time to spend in my studio..he really likes me out of his hair when he doesn't feel well...which is just fine with me...trying not to catch it from him...lots of work to do in the next two weeks..just watched michigan state get trounced by duke...now on to wisconsin and the evil Kentucky...go wisky!!!!!!!!!

oil on gallery wrap canvas

so we have had some stuff!!!...with all the cold weather last week..we had our electricity cut off for a while..only a matter of  hours but it lead to our freezer conking out in the last day or two...our pipes burst under the kitchen and no hot water for a while..but that's fixed...so here's another painting i've done for my upcoming openings..some pretty ballerinas waiting in the wings..can't decide what to name it exactly...
