Bird Dogs


I'm particularly proud of this because I painted it when I was 12 years old. I won a blue ribbon at the Mid south Fair. This is the painting that really got me interested in Art. I painted it during art classes at the Mason YMCA in Memphis. I wish I could remember the teachers name, I have fond memories of her.

Fisher Woman

This is my maternal grandmother, Eva Gertrude "Wowo" Thompson. Yes, we call our grandmother Wowo! Blame my brother. The photo I painted this from was probably when she was in her mid 80's. She's 97 now and as feisty as can be. She has the best mind. Almost a photographic memory. This is the perfect pose for her, She liked(s) nothing more than to be fishing. She cant get around so well, so she hasn't been in a while. I need to take her.
