The Husband Catcher Cake


The Husband Catcher Cake, oil on canvas, 10"x10".  Sold.

There appears to be a bit of a romance going on in this painting.  I'll leave it up to the viewer to imagine the details.  I think I've mentioned in previous posts about the 'Husband Catcher Cake' lore in my family.  My grandmother had a cake called the 'Vienna Torte' that seemed to appeal to many of her daughters' suitors and soon became known as the 'Husband Catcher'.  My mother made it a couple times for my suitors and like magic the husband was soon caught.  Maybe there is something to it?

Tilly’s Magnificent Barbecue


Tilly's Magnificent Barbecue, oil on canvas, 16"x20".  Sold.

Sometimes a good barbecue just needs a large white porcelain elephant adorned with exotic fruit.

The Wild West


The Wild West, oil on canvas, 12"x16".  Sold.

I think the owner of this lovely country house might consider pest control.  I've been watching some Deadwood episodes which of course in no way really reflects in this painting, except for the coffee pot and mugs, but it's there....sort of in the most sweet, tame, pretty way possible.  I thought it was best to leave the saloon and the 'ladies of the night' out from the painting....this time.
