A day of blessings

Today has been a very big day for me and my family. My youngest son Benjamin has graduated from High School. My baby is no longer a baby.... so sad.. yet i am so very proud! Both my babies are now graduates. Both are men.. Wow the time went fast. I have been so very blessed with both my sons. Thank you God for allowing me to raise such fine men.

Here is my latest painting. I am still working on it, I feel the ground needs more detail, but i am thrilled with how this painting is turning out. I think it reflects the mood i have been in the last few days. I am so happy! I am feeling so very blessed. Well that is it for today. I shall be back! Blessings!

City Romance Painting

It has been a very long time since I have last posted. I became overwhelmed with Blogger truthfully. I started to instead post all my works on my facebook page, or on my painting website especially set up for displaying all my latest works. I have missed blogging though , and missed my blogger friends, so i think i might just start writing what is happening in my life and posting my latest works again. For tonight i am going to just post a painting, and maybe tomorrow I will take the time to write about my thoughts and feelings, and also try and catch up with all my blogger friends. Is there anyone out there that still looks for a posting from me? Maybe i have waited to long, and everyone has given up on me? This painting that i am posting is called City Romance. I am doing an entire series on this very topic. I love exploring emotions using parks and lighting. In this painting i wanted to express a first kiss. I wanted to express how engrossed a couple can become while in love that they do not even realize that it has stopped raining. I hope you all enjoy. Blessings Tracy Jo

Amazing Grace Painting

Here is my latest work. I am calling it "Amazing Grace".
I felt so many feelings while painting this. My spirit was filled with pure Joy, knowing how very blessed I am. This painting represents spring... Music playing and the body swaying in time to a special song.
I hope you enjoy this latest work. All comments are always welcome. :)

Western Round up Paintings

These paintings together measure 8 feet by 3 feet. I painted them to go into my great room high up on the walls. It is hard getting the exact color right in the pictures. The bottom picture is more true to the real life colors of the paintings.

They are much more vivid and stunning if truth be told when looking at them real life. When looking at them I feel such peace, yet also a sense of adventure. I feel they pull you in while looking at them. I hope you enjoy!

"Lady In thought" Painting

Hi all,

I just finished another painting today. It is the first time I have painted a face on one of my lady works. This painting took me some time to do, for not only that reason but also because the topic is very close to my heart. I have been meaning to do this painting for some time, but never felt i had the ability or talent developed yet to do so.
I hope you enjoy.
All comments are always welcome. :)



"Lady In Thought" Painting
Quitely she stands under the light.
Waiting for that special moment.
Waiting in hope.
Dreaming of things only she can see.

*Painting done in memory of a special lady who was not only my family, but was a cousin i cared deeply for. She is also someone close to my heart. This is my interpretation of her, and how i see her in my mermories.*
Kim you are missed.
