Eddy the Teddy

2011-12-30T15:33:00.003-05:00

He's quirky,
He's Eddy.
He's a heck
Of a Teddy!

Made of soft cashmere, Eddy is one of a kind. He's my sweet little black bear. He's sitting right here with me and saying: Tell them, tell them how nice I is... nonono, how smart i is! He's very nice AND smart, for sure! I love this little guy. You can find him in my Etsy Shop: 3crows

Follow Your Bliss

2011-11-10T09:25:00.002-05:00

Here's a commission I did for a lovely lady for her daughter's room. I believe it was Joseph Campbell who coined the phrase, Follow Your Bliss...

Santa in a Box!

2011-11-04T11:16:00.007-04:00

I'm so excited about this Santa that I made and the beautiful cedar box that my partner in crime, Felix Caruthers, made for him. The box can serve as a gift box to house Santa in, just tie a bow around it so no one peeks! It also serves as a storage box for when Santy has to go back in the attic for the season, because it's cedar it'll keep the moths from eating away his vintage Pendleton wool outfit (I also added a bit of pine tree oil to give it that Christmas aroma). You of course can do anything you want with the box. It's a light shade of warm green, distressed, with little red wooden feet and lined in a burgundy fabric. The lid is made from old picket fence. Felix makes things to last, so rest assured, this box will last for many lifetimes.

Santa was entirely hand sewn by me and his face is painted to look grungy and aged. He sports a rusty jingle bell (which he rings when he's feeling merry!) amongst a spray of vintage holly. Santa and his Box is listed in my Etsy shop HERE

Dancing Fox and Owl Painting

2011-10-30T11:39:00.009-04:00

Yup, you knew the time was near, a dancing fox and owl, big surprise. The really big surprise of this 8x10 on canvas now for sale in my etsy shop AHEM is the color scheme. Observe the odd pairing of Burnt Orange and Eggplant Purple lightly joisting (or rather dancing as in this case) on a bed of fresh Parisian Green, garnished with a dollop of Mint and a smattering of a warm and fluffy Peach Sorbet and you have the makings for a totally new color combo. Feel free to ogle in wonder.

magic wand

2011-10-14T21:45:00.003-04:00

i found this magic wand today, at the beach. i'm not sure what kind of powers it has but it's a really awful shade of beigey-pink. I wonder what that means. It looks multifunctional.

Dreamland

2011-10-11T18:44:00.007-04:00

I live near an old amusement park that closes after Labor Day. An empty amusement park is a sort of bittersweet and beautiful thing. No more loud happy noises or mad shrieking, no more aromas of fried sugar waffles and french fries...just the rides, abandoned but still colorful and charming. The park I live near is called Sea Breeze but it used to be called Dreamland, which is what I named this painting.

20x26" acrylic on masonite.

Halloween Decoration

Henwy

2011-10-01T22:50:00.005-04:00

This is my Bubs Wubbles, otherwise known as Henwy....part Shar Pei, part Irish Terrier, Henwy comes from a broken Amish family from the dark backwoods of rural Pennsylvania. Rumor has it his kid brother was trampled by one of the cows there by mistake. Yep, life was hard back then. Henwy was three months old and beginning to starve to death when a kindly soul stepped in and got him and his remaining brothers out of there. Shortly after he came to live with me. He was small but already looked like an old man. One of my friends wanted to call him Benjamin Button, but my sister suggested Henry and it stuck, sort of, ya see, Henry is abnormally small for his age. His poor upbringing has stunted his growth and his Shar Pei features keep him looking quite youthful (well..he's only about 14 months as we speak) but...he's my little forever puppy. He's got a bad heart and some other tough issues but I gotta tell ya, this little guy is so full of life and personality and charm. And when he 'talks', he talks wike dis...whatrya gonna do?

the end IS near

2011-09-26T16:38:00.007-04:00

Here's my latest in signs..well, they're kind of like signs, they are meant as wall art, this one is ironic (or apocalyptic depending on your faith). I've made some nice lyric ones as well. Sailing Heartships Through Broken Harbors is one. I also did: There's Nothing You Can Do That Can't Be Done and an Alphabet one and a Numbers one. It's really hard to show how cool these things are on the wall. They fit in tight spaces too, like above a door or window, or below a painting. In either case, they are a lot of fun. I'm thinking of offering house numbers (I did my own with a colorful painted stick or stick in the ground) or family name, or I can always do anyone's favorite lyric. If interested at all, let me know.

2011-09-20T18:15:00.002-04:00

One of my latest commissioned pieces...they wanted something American Gothic-y and this is what came out...these really make fantastic gifts, I ALWAYS get very happy responses..HERE's my Etsy Commission page.

15 Dogs here: 3crows.etsy.com

2010-08-04T15:35:00.005-04:00

Wow, 15 dogs...all at once? Yup, all vying for your unmitigated attention but jeepers who has enough unmitigated attention to satisfy all these crazy pups? Not me that's for sure so I just put them all on this one painting and you can buy it and light a little candle under it and that'll be enough for a little bit at least, then you'll have to break out the scooby snacks..

new original in my etsy shop

2010-06-02T09:40:00.007-04:00

Dogs need pets too. Everyone needs someone they can control I mean take care of. This dog here feels like a king because he found a dog much smaller than him wandering around his backyard the other day. He quickly captured it I mean the little dog came right up to him and hopped up onto his lap. Now the big dog has a pet he can torture I mean be real nice to.

This Way Kids!
Mama is teaching her pups how to get to the snack shop in the quickest possible way. She learned this difficult trick many years ago when a very wise Collie noticed that she was getting calluses on her foot pads due to her voracious appetite for potato chips and cottage cheese. Back and forth to the snack shop she'd run til Collie finally stepped in and showed her a new way. Ever since, she's been flying like an old pro...WHOOPS...hey Mama! Look out for that tree!!

sanchez and the dog

2010-04-26T20:45:00.003-04:00

Sanchez was taking a nap in the Sugar Creek parking lot one day after having tied one on with his buddy Jeffery (who had long since disappeared on Sanchez's old Schwinn bicycle) when he was awakened by a startlingly heavy gallop on his extended belly. Sanchez opened his frightened eyes and came face to face with his new best friend. He didnt know right then that the dog would be his new best friend, in fact he threw the dog off of him and started down the sidewalk towards the city. Darned if that old fool dog didnt follow him. Even when Sanchez yelled at him to leave him alone, the dog simply wagged his tail and lick Sanchez's hand. That night, Sanchez bedded down for the night under a picnic table chained to a tree. The dog waited until Sanchez was a sleep and curled up next to him and fell asleep.

Favor From Fox

2010-04-15T18:57:00.006-04:00

Foxy is taking his bird neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. Teedles, for a little ride to the store for snacks. They'd fly but they can carry more bags of sunflower seeds this way and what the heck, Foxy offered. They might even pick up a few grapes and surprise Foxy in the parking lot with them. They're just plain neighborly that way.

Totam Poles

2010-04-15T11:12:00.012-04:00

My last class and we made totem poles, which became a competition of who could add the most "layers"...what a great bunch of kids, and even though they all try to copy one another, their creations are each uniquely their own. My favorite quote comes from Devin:
"I have no idea what you just said. You know we're just little kids!"

The Owl Family

2010-04-13T23:09:00.004-04:00

Father is a bit tired after taking the owlettes out for a little stroll through the neighborhood. Jinky saw a mean ole cat and got REALLY scared while BeeBee is just plain out of it (actually, she's considering moving to the next forest down, for this really cute boy named Cubby and she's trying to come up with a way to tell Father).

The Party

2010-04-01T21:58:00.008-04:00

OK, it was Barnia's birthday, she's the big owl right? OK, so Barnia's two best friends, Joey Lewis and NeeNee, came to Barnia's party ready for some fun, right? Well, lo and behold... no one even THOUGHT about any of the snacks anyone might be hungry for. Eventually, the entire party was ruined by party food starvation. A bag of fake popcorn could have saved the whole day. For some reason, NeeNee thought this was great adventure.

Some people are always running around doing things that are frankly really unnecessary. They really need to be more like you and learn how to just relax. This is the card to get for these freaks. it probably won't do a bit of good, the first thing they'll probably do with it is find a place to put it. Then they'll have to deal with the envelope and fuss about getting a reciprocal card for you...all before they even READ what you've written...these people...sheesh!
