Snooker Shark



Snooker is a game similar to pool but with different rules that only the English could have come up with. Balls Used: Set of Snooker balls: fifteen object balls that are not numbered and are solid red (called reds), six object balls of other colors that are not numbered (called colors) and a cue ball (called the white ball). Point values for object balls: red-1, yellow-2, green-3, brown-4, blue-5, pink-6, black-7. I find pool difficult enough to play but I think this game would be impossible. If I had to bet on this particular game, I would bet on this young man.

Cord was the brand name of a United States automobile manufactured by the Auburn Automobile Company from 1929 through 1932 and again in 1936 and 1937.
The Cord Corporation was founded and run by E.L. Cord as a holding company for his many transportation interests, including Auburn. The Cord was noted for its innovative technology and streamlined design. I loved going with my Father to classic car meets on the weekend and this was a car I loved looking at at every show.

Red House



Since we have no snow here in San Diego, this painting was done from a photo reference. I loved the cosy look of this home and it's location in the woods. 6x8 oil on canvas board. $175

Goldfintch



I love these very colorful little birds. I have a feeder outside my studio and enjoy watching them eating nyjer seed. They hang from the mesh that contains the seed and sometimes seem to be hanging upside down as they peck away. At times, there up to nine or more of them eating at once.

Ocean Pier














There is something hypnotic about watching waves roll in and hitting the pylons of the pier. Here I've also added the surfer going out to catch some waves and enjoy the beach.

Stutz Bearcat



I love looking at antique cars and this Stutz Bearcat is a beauty. I can just picture Clark Gable and Carol Lombard racing down the Sunset Strip going for a quiet dinner at the Brown Derby.

Rothenburg

Rothenburg ob der Tauber is a town on the Romantic Road in Bavaria Germany, about halfway in between Frankfurt and Munich. It is known for its medieval Altstadt, seemingly untouched by the passage of time, encircled by the undamaged 14th-century town wall. In the Middle Ages, Rothenburg ob der Tauber was a free imperial city, reaching its apex of prosperity under Burgermeister Heinrich Toppler in the 15th century with a large population of 6,000 -- much larger than Frankfurt and Munich at that time. Now Rothenburg ob der Tauber is a small town and a big tourist attraction.
