Paluxy in Paradise by Sheri Jones
12x9 oil on linen panel
I was blessed to spend the day with friends on the Paluxy River recently. The day started off cold so we bundled up. By the time we made it to the river we were peeling off the layers. It was a great day painting with friends away from the hustle and bustle of the season.

Promised Rose Garden
20x10 oil on canvas
This painting made my heart sing and reminded me of a song.
Rose Garden
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine
There's gotta be a rain some time.
Lyrics from the song Lynn Anderson released in 1970
An oldie, but a goodie.
