Another great photo from Rigelceleste! Have a wonderful summer day everyone!

“The Pumpkin Heist” by Deborah Gregg Halloween is just around the corner and the cats really really wanted a pumpkin of their own this year. The patch down the road was full of them. Beautiful big ones too. It didn’t occur to them that it was the pride and joy of the witch who lives there. They made their plan and sure enough. It could not have been easier! They joyfully marched along with their big orange pumpkin, unaware that the Witch watched the whole thing ( the bright lantern helped, Ha! ). Lucky little group, she loves Halloween and her precious pumpkins, but she also loves cats! This small painting is done with acrylics on 140 lb, acid free watercolor paper with acrylics. it has a protective finish and measures 4″ tall by 6″ long.

Its a thrill to read about Spooks out in the dark. And lighting is not a problem. Friends gather to help as long as you read out loud so everyone can enjoy it. Well maybe the dogs, bravely sticking it out, would enjoy it more inside! A tiny, primitive style folk art painting, done with acrylics on acid free,140 lb. watercolor paper.

A summer day! The windows of the barn are flung wide open to catch those precious summer breezes as the flock works on their patriotic contribution to the nearby towns’ July Fourth celebrations. A new flag! Of course a beer or two helps keep them all cool…root beer that is! Hope everyone’s summer is great so far! Having a bit too much rain here but otherwise alls well!

Yes, they are magic. Each egg is in possession of a small bit of something that only the owners of that egg will realize. Sometimes right away, and others at a time in the future. All when they are most needed. There’s an egg for everyone at the auction. Even the crows are bidding and have already won one! Its a wonderful day with so many good things in store for all. The season of rebirth and hope is very strong. This piece is an Art card (aceo). Done with acrylics on 140 lb watercolor paper with a protective finish. I would be happy to paint one like this one for you. The price, including postage, is $51.00 Have a great day!!

Its that time of year when new life begins to show itself. You have to look long and hard, and very close to see those first tiny green leaves. Checking branches for signs that they are “wick”, watching for the fine tips of plants pushing through the chilly soil. Its wonderful walking around the garden seeing that most everything survived another Nebraska winter!!! Still waiting on a very small, newly planted (last summer) peach tree! Come on little peach tree! I thought this photo by Rigel Celeste was perfect!

Every year the flock takes to the hills to show off their skills on skis. Margaret loves it but finds it most challenging (honestly though so do the others). Imagine everyone’s delight when she comes flying down the hill still upright (soon to be not so upright…) dressed in her snow bunny best! Nothing but love and support in this crowd! p.s. That one head first in the snow was quickly rescued as was the one in the tree, both are fine..especially after a few hot toddies in the lodge. No sheep were hurt in the painting of this scene.. Ha!

Beach Glass is beautiful. A photo taken by Brigittedale. Still so much snow on the ground here, I’m afraid that Spring may be late? Hope not but this scene is good for my soul right now! :)

>”Cupcake Assembly line”
by Deborah Gregg

This year the Valentine party for the flock will be in the warm and toasty garden shed. For the moment they have turned it into a factory of sorts. The ones assigned to the assembly line for decorating the many cupcakes ( a flock favorite) needed for the get together are serious about this…..as serious as sheep can be that is. Never mind the tell tale sprinkles on muzzles, cinnamon hearts worn as hair ornaments, and more than a few of these and whole cupcakes disappearing. Not to mention all the goodies falling on the floor (the chickens love the mess! ). Because when all is said and done the results are beautiful and scrumptious! Happy Valentines Day from the flock! …and me. A tiny, primitive style folk art painting, done with acrylics on acid free,140 lb. watercolor paper.
