Candace and Justin: 30″ x 40″ live wedding painting
Sometimes our world gets smaller and we are all the better for it. I’ve known Candace since the first grade, and so when I had the opportunity to do a live wedding painting at her ceremony, I was so excited. Candace and Justin exchanged their vows in an intimate setting on their peaceful farm in Ashland City, Tennessee. They set

“On the River” O.H. Ingram Whiskey Painting
I like a good story. And I LOVE painting one, especially when it’s tied to a rich history like O.H. Ingram Whiskey. That’s how my “On the River” O.H. Ingram Whiskey painting began. A few months ago, I started thinking about painting a whiskey series. I was excited by the challenge of capturing the whiskey’s story and history on canvas.

There are just a few holes that hold a special magic on a golfer’s memory. Hole 14 at Royal Dornoch, or Foxy, is one of those.

“No 18 at the Old Course at St Andrews Links”, Golf Painting
“This is the origin of the game, golf in its purest form, and it’s still played that way on a course seemingly untouched by time.

“No. 16 at Troubadour Golf & Field”, Golf Painting
When my husband played professional golf, our dinner time revolved around summer storms. A little rain won’t deter a serious golfer, but lightening will send them off the course quicker than a cat in water. This summer storm sets place on the 16th green at the Troubadour Golf and Field Club. Located in the stunning community of Troubadour in College
