Red Dog Designs is a small home-based craft and fine-art business tended by me, Holly, in the wee hours between sleeping and my day job.
My painting style is a free form mix between impressionistic and realistic. I enjoy painting subjects from the natural world both in the field and in the studio. I gain inspiration from the many beautiful places I have worked and the experimenting with texture through the integration of paper and acrylic paints on canvas.
I am thankful to be able to express my creative side and share some of that vision with my friends and family. I am thankful not only because art has greatly enriched my life, but also because recently diagnosed with MS, I have had to slow down a bit and find activities that are enriching but that don’t require a large amount of physical assertion. Returning to my love for painting and fiber arts has made the challenges of chronic illness easier to bear.
No, it hasn't snowed quite this much yet...but I am looking forward to cross-country skiing. I finally did the deed today and unpacked the new crate I purchased for Popcorn. I didn't want to have to use it, but her newly developed talent for opening the doors in my house to get to her favorite pooping spot has pretty much forced the issue. She is for the most part, a delight. Her personality is starting to blossom. She is a true cattle dog, with the smarts, humor, and intensity found in the breed. When I hobble down the street with my little 1-eyed red and spazzy deaf blue all who pass comment on her beauty. Poor little fuzzy Ginger is no longer the attention-getter for alas!, Popcorn's good looks steal the attention from Ginger's eye-hole.
ooops, hit the wrong button. I was saying, get Ginger an eye patch and a scabbord. Then she would look like a pirate and I'll bet she would get more attention that way.
