Cute Pup

Posted in daily painter, Dogs, tagged , , , on January 17, 2011| 3 Comments »

No new paintings today.  I spent part of the weekend recovering from food poisoning.  NO FUN!  We were out at the cabin so I have cute puppy pictures to post.  For some reason Lincoln kept sticking his face down in the ditch where the snow was deep.  Not sure what he was after but he ended up with snowface!

Cardinals for Class

Posted in Art Class, daily painter, tagged , , , , , , , on January 13, 2011| 2 Comments »

I finally remembered to take my camera to class and get some photos of things we have been painting in the kids classes.  These are the cardinals that I did last week for the Wed. and Thurs. classes.  The kids really seem to enjoy painting animals.  If you have a student 8 – 12 years old that would like to paint with us, email me at kwalker@doubledogdesigns  to sign them up for a class.  I know they will have fun.

Last week I posted about the cupcake hat that I made at the request of a friend.  Here it is on it’s new owner.  Doesn’t Lara look cute in it?  Love it!  Click here to see the original post about the hat:  https://lifeofadailypainter.com/2011/01/06/the-cupcake-hat/

I also got photos from my cousin Linda of her new hat and the one she gave her mom, Aunt Myrtice.  They look great in their new hats.  Don’t you agree?

The stats helper monkeys at WordPress.com mulled over how this blog did in 2010, and here’s a high level summary of its overall blog health:

Healthy blog!

The Blog-Health-o-Meter™ reads Wow.

Crunchy numbers

The average container ship can carry about 4,500 containers. This blog was viewed about 17,000 times in 2010. If each view were a shipping container, your blog would have filled about 4 fully loaded ships.

In 2010, there were 237 new posts, growing the total archive of this blog to 382 posts. There were 545 pictures uploaded, taking up a total of 283mb. That’s about a picture per day.

The busiest day of the year was April 11th with 946 views. The most popular post that day was About Kelly.

Where did they come from?

The top referring sites in 2010 were suzannemcminn.com, mail.yahoo.com, chickensintheroad.com, facebook.com, and everydayruralty.com.

Some visitors came searching, mostly for helen frankenthaler, across the universe, old truck, impressionists, and singing in the rain.

Look at what a great job the Wednesday afternoon art class did with their cardinals.  Thursday class also painted cardinals but I forgot my camera last night.  😦  Next week I’ll remember it so I can show off the Thursday students too.

Good job everybody!

Hats, hats and more hats

Posted in Crochet, daily painter, tagged , , on January 5, 2011| 1 Comment »

While I didn’t paint much over my vacation I did do quite a bit of crocheting.  Here are the hats that I made that will be available at Delilah’s should you need a warm, fashionable hat during this cold weather.  It’s very satisfying to put colors and textures together to come up with new hats.

Tomorrow, a special order cupcake hat.  🙂
