"Snowball Fight on Salem Lane"
The Franklin children on Salem Lane arrived home from school, where Mom had just pulled some cookies out of the oven. The delightful smell led them straight to the kitchen for a warm snack. They finished their homework when they noticed it was getting dark and begged to go outside to work off some energy before dinner. Little Johnny made snowballs for his sister, Jenny, to throw at George, while Linda safely hid behind the snowman. Ronnie decided to roll the base of another snowman while watching his dog, Charlie, all decked out in his new tartan plaid coat, sneak up on his brother.
Merry Christmas and God Bless!
This week I finished this painting that I'm donating to our church. We are going to build a new church since we have out grown this sweet, charming building. What a problem to have, right? Making Heaven Crowded! I'm sharing step by step images of how this painting came together.
In the quaint farming town of Orrick, there’s a charming country church directly across the street from the train tracks. Every year they have an old fashioned tent revival where dinner is served, hymns fill the evening air, and baptisms are done in a large trough. They pray for people in need and build strong relationships with God, family, and friends. They’re Bible believing, faithful followers of Christ working to make Heaven crowded.
If you're local and looking for a church, our service times are on the sign. We'd love to see you there! If you can't see that teeny tiny writing on the sign leave me a comment. All print sales will go to our building fund.
In this quiet little village lined with brick sidewalks and old storefronts Betty found her dream. This is where she opened her own shop, The Book Den. She restored the building with the wide plank floors and fixed an apartment upstairs where she could retire after the shop closed at 8pm. Grabbing one of the books off a shelf, she curls up in her favorite chair to read until she can no longer stay awake.
This 8" x 10" personalized painting is finished and available in my
Etsy Shop. You can have your name painted on the shop sign above the door of the shop, i.e. Holman Book Den.
Prints will be available soon.
I completely forgot that I needed to paint a book shop to add to my personalized paintings. Hopefully I can finish this in a couple more days and will have it up for sale in my Etsy Shop soon. There is a lot more detail to add and this is my favorite part of a painting. This book shop stays open late and the owner lives upstairs in her cozy apartment where she loves to read of course!
This little 5 x 7 inch painting was listed and sold yesterday in my Etsy Shop but prints are now available.
When the leaves begin to fall and cover the ground with vibrant hues of red and orange the Johnson family head to their lake house to do a little cleanup. Freddie and Ronnie spend more time jumping in piles of leaves while their parents rake them. Evenings are magical sitting around the bonfire roasting marshmallows and hot dogs with all the scents of autumn filling the night air.
