Sandbags a common sight in Cedar Rapids some have become inventive in their uses. |
The Cedar River got to it's 2nd highest level ever and I was evacuated out of my home for about 3 days. I ended up moving most of my belongings to the 2nd floor of my home. Then, I moved most of my studio and a few larger items to a friend's garage. It also affected my work which was almost directly across the river from my house. I must say sometimes it's not a good idea to be within walking distance of your work. In this case it was like having all my eggs in one basket. But temporary barriers and a whole lot of sandbagging managed to save most of the city and I was lucky.
But with all of that moving and what not I got a little behind on some of my commissioned pieces. But thankfully people were understanding. Here's some dog commissions that I recently finished...

Sorry to say that these are memorial paintings, but I hope they will provide good memories for my friend Polly. Thank you for stopping by and please feel free to leave a comment.
