Miss Piggy - Ruth Andre


"Miss Piggy"
6"x6" oil on canvas
by Ruth Andre

This little pig is a commission that has been on the back burner for awhile. It is going to Texas to be with her brother, another piggy painting by yours truly. I do hope this is the last pig painting for a long while. Love the critters but I am pigged out. It has been, "A Piggy Painting Day".

Texas Small Works Show


I look a little wild and wooly in this photo but I thought it might be one to share.  The photo was taken at Texana in Goliad, Texas for the "Cow Paintings by Ruth Andre" exhibit a few years ago.  I was lucky enough to visit historic Goliad and meet some wonderful collectors at the reception.  Photos were forgotten until near the end of the evening and I had been busy talking for a few hours.  I mention the show because I just shipped 32 paintings off to Texana for an upcoming Small Works show and the reception will be Saturday, October 8, 2011.  The paintings are 4x4 up to 10x10 inches, framed and ready for that special collector. Texana is located in the town square and if you are in the area come and enjoy the great offering of paintings and art items as well as a very fun evening.

Mustangs


This is a painting I painted awhile back and it still holds my interest due to the mix of horses and knowing they are Mustangs, horses that represent our heritage and our west.  I admire the Mustang advocates that continue to fight for the freedom of Mustangs and responsible care of culled Mustangs.  My love of the Mustang made for, "A Painting Day".

Standing Tall


On the way to Galt, California to buy a few bales of hay for our three hay eaters.  My husband was at the wheel of the truck when he heard me say, Stop.  I saw this beautiful paint gelding in the field near the road and wanted to get out and take a look at him.  This stoic fellow was very happy to have company and seemed willing to pose as I took a few photos.  Paints are a beautiful breed.  Their coloring is always a lovely surprise, like puzzles in a box.  Heading to Galt made for, "A Painting Day".
