RON EHRLICH

We have one large and one small painting by Ron Ehrlich and we have adored living with them both over the years.  The image below is of the larger painting --

I appreciate this YouTUBE video for showing the paintings' lovely surfaces.

RACHAELA diROSARIA

From a 2015 trip to New Orleans, we were blessed to bring home a work by Rachaela diRosaria.  We got a shadowbox painting by this fabulous tattooed artist and artist of tattoos: 

From our trip,  here also are photos of her (I love the phases of the moon across her face -- phase / face!), her supportive husband, and more of her works at the show where we met:

DENISE DUHAMEL

Denise Duhamel is known for her poetry. I don't know how much she practices visual art but, once, she also made this wonderful watercolor that is a cheerful presence in la casa:

GERMAN SHEPHERDS

When it comes to art, I have no standards as regards German Shepherd tchochkes: our family welcomes GSD in all of its forms. Thus, here are our 2015 Christmas GSD paintings. We tried to evoke Vermeer's light with the top image of Athena and our son on the dog bed. Achilles poses by the second painting for which he  had modeled. We just heart our dogs!
