This is a new song I wrote.  "Most of All I See Dreams"

It's all about the journey of the dream, the people you touch and the experiences while trying to achieve your dream.

A Painting for Autumn

I painted this for myself personally.  I am going to hang it in my dining room for the fall season.   It was done in acrylics and plaster.

Portrait of Casey

I have been updating portraits of family members and I chose our daughter in law Casey this time in honor of her 40th birthday which is today.  The painting was done in acrylics.

Portrait of Denise

This is a portrait of my niece, Denise.  It was painted in acrylics.

She Had a Boy Friend and a Friend Who Was a Boy

This video is of a song I wrote telling the romantic story of how my daughter and her husband now of almost 18 years got together. To illustrate the story I scribbled some pages to make it fun.    

The Grand-kids at the Beach

I used a photo of four of the kids at the beach and since Jake was not there I added him to the painting.  That is the beauty of art.

Fused Glass Pendant - Looks Like a Seal

If you look closely at this piece you will see a seal.  That is what I find fascinating about fusing glass.

The above link is to a video I recorded with the song I wrote " Everyone's on the phone." Several of my family members including all of my grand-children contributed with video clips of themselves on the phone.  My thanks to all of them for helping me with my Grand-ma project.  It will also be a keepsake.

Also my thanks to Walt Mills for recording, arranging and producing the video.

Portrait of Angie

This was painted in acrylics and part of a series of family portraits that I am updating.

Try To See the Sunshine Through the Rain

This is a link to a music video for a song I wrote and sang.  The photos illustrate the song.  At the end of the song is a painting I did from the photo. The silhouette is of my son John searching for the sun. That photo  was taken by my daughter-in-law Casey. I thought it was a good representation of the song because he is searching for the sun and the rainbow represents God's promise that the rain will stop.

The production was recorded and videoed by Walt Mills.  PhotosByWalt.com.
