The Secret Diary Of Snow White


The Secret Diary Of Snow White, oil on canvas, 11"x14".  Sold.

There seems to be a 'Twin Peaks' theme running alongside my Snow White theme.  I've had the theme song for Twin Peaks stuck in my head for days.  What does that mean?

A Love Affair


A Love Affair, 12"x16", oil on canvas.  Sold.

There is no denying it.  I have a fetish for figurines.   Don't worry, when I paint them I don't make little voices and have them talk to each other.  That would just be weird.

The Poison Apple


The Poison Apple, oil on canvas, 12"x16".  Sold.

This one was a toughy.  It was really hard to control myself and carefully edit what I wanted in the picture.  The Wicked Queen is fascinating to me and figuring out what her living room would be like was very exciting. Her taste would likely be somewhat more flashy than her stepdaughters and she would definitely have a witch's familiar (black cat), but aside from that, I didn't want to unleash buckets of evil on to the painting.   Yes, that is a voodoo doll, and a bottle of poison, but she seems pretty restrained with the wickedness- I think.

I don't think I'm quite finished with this subject matter....there's likely a little more to this story.

Snow White


Snow White, 12"x16", oil on canvas.  Sold.

I wanted to paint my version of what Snow White's cottage would have been like had she not gone off with the seven dwarfs or the prince.  I think she would have found a crooked little cottage somewhere in the woods where she could spend her time sewing, taking long baths, and drinking Elderberry wine or whatever it was that they drank back in the days of yore.   It seems like she would have had a pretty beautiful life, although that half eaten apple does seem a little menacing.

Off now to start painting the companion piece....the wicked stepmother's house.
