More Stuff! Green Living

What is the Story of Stuff?

From its extraction through sale, use and disposal, all the stuff in our lives affects communities at home and abroad, yet most of this is hidden from view. The Story of Stuff is a 20-minute, fast-paced, fact-filled look at the underside of our production and consumption patterns. The Story of Stuff exposes the connections between a huge number of environmental and social issues, and calls us together to create a more sustainable and just world. It'll teach you something, it'll make you laugh, and it just may change the way you look at all the stuff in your life forever.

I will be listing a 16x20" Florida Landscape w/ a starting bid of $49. on eBay April 3rd.
Please watch the video, it is enlightening & entertaining! ;)

Florida Landscape Painting - COWs

All this cleaning out has motivated my muse so I've stopped to paint a bit. This scene was inspired by SR 70 near Myakka Florida.
I want to paint the cows so bad...they look so serene lounging around under the humongus swooping oak branches. Well, these are faraway cows....I'm working on close up cows, it's a work in progress 4 a while now.
9" x 12 inch x 3/4"

Oil Paintings

Reducing prices on oil paintings. These are from 2003 when I first began painting and trying out all the different mediums.....I am a very MESSY oil painter, plus they take months to dry/cure, so I don't do large oils any longer. (just miniatures because it is so much fun to smoosh creamy oil paints around!)
Anyway, they R listed at eBay for 3 days and then I will put them in my Etsy store, http://WildPelican.Etsy.com at the same low starting price if they are still available.
There will be a total of 12 oil paintings.

Procrastination & The Muse

Ok, all this digging around trying to organize is not working...WOW! I forgot about all these canvas'! Poor things, they are all white, the muse is too strong, OK, I give up, I will stop cleaning! I am wanting to add to my "CORAL FISH" series....these take me a while, but I will post them as I finish....sorry, this one is not available, a travel agent owns it. How fitting!
