It’s Summertime again…Y A Y !!! The Artist i.e. the husband will start back to work this week. He’s happy and so am I. Time to get back to my life as a homemaker and the #painterswife <3 …
Today I’m going to feature 2 of the Artist original oil painting’s. We have also been researching on how to market his original oil painting’s and have found a way to make prints of his original works which will make it much more affordable for you to own some of his beautius original oil painting’s…
The Artist
Today the 1st piece of artwork is his finished piece of an original by Vincent Van Gogh. The title of this piece is the Potatoe Eater’s…
The Potatoe Eater /Vincent Van Gogh
This was his latest piece that he worked on during this past Spring.
The 2nd featured oil painting for today is an original piece. I thought it was kind of creepy but it really feels like the title. The title for this painting is, “Pandemic.”

If you are interested in any of this artwork, you can leave me a msg. in the comments section of my blog.
I am in the process of getting our Instagram set up and you can also see more of his painting’s by clicking on the, “Elan Creations” widget on the right side of the blog.
Happy Summer everyone, let’s make it the best one ever <3 Blessings <3 .
Happy Tuesday AtoZer’s…Hope your week is going good. The weather is absolutely gorgeous with sun and temps in the 80’s. Believe you me that is a rarity for April in the Midwest i.e. Chicago. We could still be having snow, not kidding.
I thought this might be challenging to find a painting that I could use that the Artist did for the letter “E” but then he said just use Elvis. Of course, one of his favorite performer’s and naturally he has a few different images of The King 😉
Maybe we could do a little music with today’s post (One of my favorite songs by the King) and now I get how the Artist could do so many different looks with his painting’s. He sure was a handsome guy <3
I have picked out 3 paintings for today’s post…I told you at the start I would have no trouble with finding an original painting for each letter in the AtoZ Challenge.
My first choice is the painting titled, “Boots” I really love this one because I see apassion in his work… He has always had an amazing work ethic and this painting has that certain feeling to it … He has always been an extremely hard worker, he just doesn‘t quit and quite frankly that is why he had me at, “Hello” <3 .
Boots
My second choice is one of the Artist’s favorite thing to paint and that is the Beach…I’m sure that is where his heart lives and breathes…
The Beach
The third choice for the letter “B” is going to be, “Boat”. I have named this boat, “The Tradewinds”…
The Tradewinds
As I revisit his paintings’s, I am reminded just what a talented artist he is <3 I hope you are enjoying his beautius artwork <3 Happy Friday, Happy Easter…
Rememberyou can check out his artwork for sale on the link below….Enjoy your weekend AtoZ blogger’s
I’m going topic off a bit. I usually concentrate on one of the Artist’s Masterpiece’s that he worked on over the weekend, but this weekend I took the Artist out for a treat. Actually it was his Christmas Present. For Christmas this past year I bought him tickets to Immersive Van Gogh Exhibit in Chicago.
It was amazing !!! Just take a look and see for yourself 🙂 Much better live !!!
I got to take a few souvenirs home with me so that too was kind of exciting !!!
Vincent Van Gough
I just had to put up some music with this too. One of my Favorite songs of all time…
The artist had a really great time and so did I. I even saw a lot of Vincent Van Gogh Painting’s that looked a little familiar…Definitely a very deep, complex man.
The Potato Eater’sSunflowers
Okay I’ll share one more…He’s been a very busy painter !!!
Okay just one more b/c this was definitely at the show !!!
Looking forward to AtoZ which starts in a couple of days…April 1st to be exact. I got worried that I didn’t have enough art to make it through the AtoZ…Well I have plenty of art and then some. Really looking forward to sharing it with you. Check back on Wednesday where I’l have a bio on the Artist 😉 (Husband) . He really is very talented !!!
Happy Monday fellow blogger’s. I hope everyone had a great weekend. They do go by so fast though. Mine was really busy which is a good thing and the weather was really good !!!
Monday’s Masterpiece will always be the featured picture of the blog post, unless I change it. In that case, I will let you know… 😉 Today’s Monday’s Masterpiece is one of my favorites. The Artist (Husband) painted this one for me and had it framed. It is hanging in my Kitchen and I just love it. The title of it is, “Basket of Apples”.
The Artist was painting a lot this weekend. Here are a few of the images he is currently working on…
I bought myself some flowers this weekend and that always bring a smile to my face 🙂
Pretty Weekend Flowers
One more picture to share. I found the cousin picture that I was looking for. I did a post on St. Patrick’s Day of the 1st Cousin’s picture, then I found the later one where we are older <3 There were a lot of us…
1st Cousin Picture
I am one of four sister’s…We are on the end, stage left. Sister Liz is in the green dress, I’m down in front of Sister Liz, with my hand in my mouth…Sister Kay is to the left of me and Mary the oldest Sister has her hand around Sister Kay’s shoulder. We were close in age, only 4 years separating all of us from oldest Mary, to the youngest me…Let’s just say, high school was interesting for our dad.
2nd Cousin Picture/At the Farm/Family Reunioun
It was kind of fun this weekend b/c we were all trying to figure out who was who and what year it was. Kind of a, “Where’s Waldo,” game… The years do fly by. I’m in the middle with the pig tails and red/white/blue striped shirt and the girl directly in back of me is my oldest sister Mary, and the one right next to Mary (stage right) is my older sister Liz. Another one of my sister’s is all the way on the end (stage left) I guess you might think I was a theater mom 😉 and you’d be right. Kay was all in blue with kind of a wonky look on her face. I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who wasn’t smiling. When the cousin’s get together, we all talk about this picture and how glad we were that Aunt Patti made us take the picture..Two more cousins were born after the picture but we never got another one taken with all the cousins.
This week looks to be warmer and wetter and then maybe even some snow… I really hate March but I’ll take the couple of warmer days. At least we are getting closer to April <3 . I’m going to be setting up my new planner which I don’t have a name for her yet. I’ll probably be posting a lot about that. Also I am working on getting our site for #Elan Creations up and running again, definitely stay tuned for that.
Have a Happy Monday and a great week !!! Blessings Blogger’s <3 …
So happy for Friday…Getting my hair done today. Survived all that snow OMG 2″ people. Yes I know it’s going to be below zero with AHHH wind chills below zero. Hello this is Chicago. Put on a coat and a hat, maybe throw on a scarf and get over it. I’m not staying in. It’s sunny and beautiful albeit a little bit chilly in the Midwest. I need fresh air.
I also wanted to mention my side widget, “Elan Creations.” I put that up on my site yesterday and it took me forever, but I learned a lot. If you click on that you will see many of the Artist’s (my Husband’s)original artwork. It hasn’t been updated in awhile, but there are some beautiful pieces available. They are all for sale, prices are negotiable with or without framing. Below are a few of his recent painting’s…
I just had to add some music to this…Vincent, one of my favorite songs of all time. Here it is performed by Don Mclean.
October Apples
This is one of my favorites !!! I had it framed and it’s hanging in my kitchen <3 It can hang in your kitchen too. This is the Original, I have a print hanging in my home. The original’s are more expensive and I’m not really sure he even wants to sell them. The prints are very good though and you can’t really tell the difference unless you are a pro 😉
One last thing, he’s also has some of his work hanging in a gallery out in Galena, IL and his artwork is also published in a book….Here is the link for that publication. Happy Friday 😉
Just start…I suppose that is just what to do. Learning might look different for awhile, but it will get easier 😉 I hope. If you know me at all, I love font’s and color buttons. It just seems like it’s more original than just straight vanilla all the time. I think it’ll be more fun but at the same time maybe a bit wonky !!! I’m sure you know what I mean.
I’ve also been a bit distracted as one of our dog’s, Bella is not doing so well and that has been taking up a lot of my time. I know what’s ahead and I’m trying to make her as comfortable as possible. I’m her human and she can tell whenever I’m upset and that is not good for her so I have to play it very cool, which is not easy to do. She has been a great loyal friend to me for a very long time and I really love her.
My Sweet, Sweet Bella
Hanging outside with dad…
She’shanging in their for now, we are just goingtake it one day at a time for now. The husband, my artist has been painting over the weekend and he finally finished the painting. Here is the finished product and I think he did a beautius job on it !!!

I think it turned out really nice. Happy Monday, Blessings Bloggers
OLD/NEW That is the prompt for today. Seems appropriate as I am trying to re-set my OLD blog. I did other things this past summer so my OLD blog went away. Now that we are heading into a NEW season, Fall, I want to start a NEW Blog but I’m finding it a bit challenging. When I left, things were a lot different on the OLD WordPress. Now everything seems different so setting up my NEW blog is going to be a challenge. The OLD WordPress was easier but maybe that’s okay. I’m always up for learning NEW things. NEW challenges are good and I don’t feel so OLD. I was very happy to see many of my OLD blogging buddies still around. OLD friends are the best friends. I’ll be working on my NEW Blog and I hope it doesn’t get too wonky. Should be fun. I’m still the Planner Girl and having so much fun with that. I’m also still the painterswife and he has been getting a lot of new painting’s done as he has been home with me since March 13th OMG. This is his latest painting
Will this ever end…Thank you for staying with me on this blogging journey. I’ll be posting the Artist’s paintings and my planner escapades. Life is good. Blessings Bloggers <3 . I forgot I’m suppose to tag and post this so I better get to it…
