Peace, 8x8 Inch Original Acrylic Painting by Kelley MacDonald

$150 & $10 S&H

"Peace comes from within.  Do not seek it without."

Am I keeping you on your toes?  Fashion one day, Zen another... welcome to my world!  Over the summer I have been collecting photos of Buddhas faces.  Thinking of how much I enjoyed the mugshots with Karin Jurick, I wondered if I could keep going, with acrylic paint and the mediums that belong to acrylics alone.  AND metallic acrylics.  This was the first one I did, and I loved it.  Then for the North River Arts Society's Outside The Box Silent Auction I did this one:

On to the next Buddha face!
I didn't post yesterday, and I'm sorry, but I made it my own '9/11' holiday.  I spent a lot of time thinking about that day, reading about others' experiences, praying for the souls lost and the families left behind.  It's hard to believe it's been 11 years.  And though I try hard not to be a vindictive person, I definitely feel better knowing OBL is gone, baby, gone.

Beautiful In Blue, 8x8, Original Oil Painting by Kelley MacDonald

$150 & $10 S&H

When I go to the Brimfield Fair, I look at all the gorgeous evening gowns set up near the different dealers' tents.  This one was spectacular - and I have a friend with gorgeous blue eyes, pale skin and dark hair - I imagine her sweeping into a ballroom and dancing the night away in something like this! And in other news - I'll be having regular classes this Fall as WELL as 1 day workshops (3rd Thursdays)... the class info:
