White Horse Loosey Goosey - Palette knife painting by Debbie Grayson Lincoln

8 X 8 oil on linen panel
$150 includes shipping and insurance US
No, my eyesight isn't deteriorating, although that is the reason given to explain why Monet's paintings, in his later years, became so loose and colorful. I am in no way comparing myself to that great Impressionist, but I am continuing to explore using globs of paint to suggest an image rather than define it. This forces me to not only work quickly, but also to not linger over the details, which has always been difficult for me. Limiting my palette also forces me to simplify, simplify, which is something I need to do in all aspects of my life....
The garden has not washed away as it did last year, despite torential rains and threats of tornados. Spuds are doing well, ahead of everything else, and corn, beans and peas are all searching for the sun, which is abundant today.
All three cows are getting larger daily and I believe Abbey will lead the pack  and calve first. It can't be too soon, either. I did freeze a half dozen gallons of milk before we dried off the cows, but there is nothing like fresh, and although it's nice to take a break from milking, too, I will be happy to resume that chore and fill the frig with cheese and yoghurt and milk again.
Genesis 2:8  Now the Lord God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man he had formed.

Buckskin Beauty - oil painting by Debbie Grayson Lincoln


11 X 14 Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas 
$300 includes shipping and insurance US
I have frequently expressed how grateful I am to be living in an area of Texas chock full of gorgeous horses. I find amazing models everywhere I turn, and I have always had a special admiration of buckskins. Marshal Dillon rode one and so did Ben Cartwright - two admirable TV Cowboys of my youth.
The inspiration of this painting, Smoky, was bred and owned by Kelly Crawford, a long time friend and fellow horse and cow lover. Kelly and her husband, Steven, also lead elk hunts into New Mexico using horses they have bred and trained. Accompanying them on a hunt is on my very long bucket list...
Psalm 71:17  "Since my youth, God, you have taught me, and to this day I declare your marvelous deeds!"

Leader of the Pack - horse oil painting by Debbie Grayson Lincoln

18 X 24 Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contact Artist for availability
March entered like a lion and went out like a lamb, with April already a balmy 80 degrees. The garden is nearly all planted, and now we wait for May's gulley washers. And babies.
May is not only about thunderstorms this year. We are also waiting for babies - lots of them. In the merry month of May, Sophie, Abbey and Elvira are all due to calve, and my adorable daughter is due to have her third baby, a boy already named and loved and dreamed about. We are all eagerly awaiting Coleman's arrival with the kind of anticipation that only a new grandchild can cause.
This painting is a slight deviation from my normal offering, and I plan to continue with more "experiments". I have been painting a number of commissions lately as well as working on some mosaics, with little time left over to paint for ME!

Mark 5:34   He said to her, "Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering."
