Commission for Sandy

July 5, 2016 by kellywalkerstudios

Sandy's Painting final2I have been working on a commission for my friend Sandy on and off for several months now.  She had a very specific need for a long narrow painting to put over a cabinet in her dining room.  She wanted in the style of Matisse with “The Dance” included as well as teapot and certain colors.  She was happy with it when she picked it up.  Whew!

Happy Independence Day!

July 4, 2016 by kellywalkerstudios

FlagAs a history major I feel that there are several important documents that every American should read on occasion.

One of the most important is the Declaration of Independence.  Several years ago I started making it a tradition to read it every Independence Day.  Please take a few minutes to read it.  It’s an amazing document.  There is a copy here that is easy to read.

Happy Independence Day!

Flag in the Valley, Acrylic, 12″ x 4″,  SOLD!
