II became hooked on painting by numbers in April 2021 when I completed my first canvas, Meadow Menagerie. Since then, I’ve finished sixteen more and am currently working on number eighteen.

Southern Charm
This was painting number 14. I actually started “Southern Charm” when I was still in New York before moving to New Hampshire. I had completed more than half of the painting, but it sadly got lost in the move. I decided several years later to try again and am happy that I did. I loveContinue reading “Southern Charm”
A Night To Remember
This was painting number 13. A lot of dark colors when I started, but gradually the highlights appeared. The fireplace glows. It’s a cool scene. I can imagine the sound of the fire and the crickets. Maybe even some loon calls from the lake.

Number 12 completed. This was a fun and colorful painting to work on. It’s called “A Taste Of The Past”. I love eating in these old diners. The classic cars are very cool too! We used to have one in Newport next to what is now the Salt Hill Pub (The Eagle Block). It’s goneContinue reading “A Taste Of The Past”
Standing Proud
Number 11 completed. I really loved painting this beautiful buck. It’s standing confidently in the woods, showcasing its strength and magnificence. This artwork gives me a sense of the wild nature in New Hampshire. Just looking at it makes me feel connected to the great outdoors!
Life On The Farm
I just finished “Life On The Farm”. Now I have to make a frame and mount it. Nice Fall colors. It won’t be long before it will look like this in New Hampshire . A beautiful time of the year!
Iconic symbol of freedom

I just finished painting number 8. This is a custom PBN (paint by numbers) kit that Tom ordered for me from Masterpiece by Numbers. He surprised me with it for my birthday. He had sent them a photo of our two cats, Pepper and Zazu, and they had created the custom kit for us. ThereContinue reading “Pepper and Zazu”
