Preparation of Paintings for the Nostalgia Show
Painting Name: I Dream of Ice Cream When I Hear the Music
Growing up in the suburbs as a kid, during those hot summer evenings while out playing, the tinkling of music was heard which announced the soon to arrive ice cream man. All of the children would all rush to their homes, calling out to their own moms if we could get ice cream. If yes, the coinage or the allowances were pillaged or dispensed, then the rush to get in line and make our selection had to be made. The fond memory of ice cream delivered is an ongoing memory ongoing to this day.

Painting Name: A Vintage Christmas Morning
Christmas morning as a child, what is more Nostalgic than that? I remember the wonder and excitement of Christmas morning and the mad bolt down the stairs to see what Santa Claus brought. Such wonderful memories of Mom and Dad, and my 2 brothers, and the gift wrapping everywhere. The silver tinsel tree with the blue ornaments, that fancy color changing wheel, bicycles, Etch-a-Sketch, Mr Potato Head, Gumby and Pokey, Barbie and Midge, Easy Bake Oven, and presents and presents to tear up.
This was so much fun to paint.
