Bob's Elhew Jill
This is the 2012 NBHA Champion. Her name is Bob's Elhew Jill and her owner is Bobby Phillips. This painting will be given to the owner at the next field trial in March. This painting is 16x20 and painted on a linen board. It is framed in a wide rustic frame. I haven't painted for quite awhile so was good to get the oils out and get busy.

Pomme de Terre River
I have finally gotten out my paints and played around today with them. I have not painted for some time due to another knee surgery. With my studio in the basement, it is not too easy to get down there to work. I did two small watercolors today in a couple of hours. One will have to be a greeting card as it isn't worth a matt and frame. I think this one turned out a bit better than the other. This is a 6x8 watercolor of the Pomme de Terre River, just below the dam near Hermitage, Mo. It is such a beautiful spot and I have photographed it so many times. And I have painted it before and put some children playing in the water under this big old tree.

Rocky Hollow Firecracker "Cracker"
I am replacing a previous posting of this dog as I took another photo with better lighting and it does show the color better. This female pointer is last year's winner in the 25th NBHA Futurity Championship and the owner of the dog will be presented with this painting in March, 2012. The owners are Brian and Georgie Casey of New Columbia, Il. The dog was handled by Brian. It is a 16x20 oil, painted on a linen canvas panel.
Rocky Hollow Firecracker
This is a painting of the Futurity Champion. I painted this to be given to the winner's owner at the annual competition in March 2012. I am blogging it in the frame as I think it adds so much to it. My frame came from laframe.com. They are always so prompt in getting frames to me. I ordered from them on a Monday and got the order in on Friday and that is with a few custom sizes. This is a 16x20 oil on a linen canvas panel.
