I’m an old person who lives in New England.
I have gone back to my love of painting animals and pet portraits. Website: sandraolsonart.com.

Fierce supporter of democracy, equality, truth and reality.

I love all Boston sports teams.

No DMs.
Haven’t posted for ages. Had some health issues to deal with but the worst is behind me.

I’m working on a few commissions but they are holiday gifts so under wraps until January.

In the meantime here’s a painting I did of our dog Bella who we sadly lost about 4 years ago.

From me, a list of Trump supporters who killed, or tried to kill, Democrats and opponents of Trump in recent years (since the right are now claiming all the political violence is from the left!)

It’s International dog day and tongue out Tuesday. It’s a two for one with Yoshi.

Good morning,

The last of my Wild Horses of America series are currently marked 50% off. Gotta make some wall space!

Check out my website and let me know if something is of interest.

I can get a shipping estimate prior to purchase using your zip code.

Thanks!

Just a quick note to let you know that my commissions are now open!!

It’s not too early to think about a gift of a pet portrait for yourself or someone else for the holidays!

I’ve included a few portraits I’ve done below.

Details are on my website: sandraolsonart.com

Thanks!

It’s been about a billion degrees and so humid that I swear I live in
The tropics not New England.

Thought I would post one of the few snow paintings I painted so I could cool my brain off a little.

Love our backyard critters

I received this from Social Security this morning. Very surprised, is it real, is any of it true??
I say sarcastically to the creators of this disastrous bill…does this mean I might hold off eviction while i figure out about losing my Medicare?

I had a moment last night where I was overwhelmed with the thought that the bad guys are winning. Tough one for someone like me who grew up truly believing that good triumphs over evil.

I thought I would take a minute for cute. We have lots of rabbits in the back, here’s two I painted.

A number of years ago I was able to get permission from an incredible photographer in the Czech Republic to paint some of their white deers.
They seemed so magical to me.

I think it’s time to paint some more of them.

Thanks!

Meant to post this yesterday but got sidetracked.

Yesterday was three years since Yoshi’s “gotcha day”.

Here are a couple photos of her pouring on the charm with my husband at the shelter.

I ran across a post by an artist who said one of the most important things is to keep posting your work. Doesn’t have to be new work.

With that in mind (since I haven’t picked up a brush in months) here is a photo of a tiger painting I did several years ago as a gift for my sister in law.

I know, I know, I’m a day late for tongue out Tuesday but here’s a cute picture of Yoshi. Just because she’s cute.

In a world of the courageous and the cowardly, be like 60 Minutes, not the bragging big law firms that folded before any fight.

Courage after the fact is cowardice trying to sleep at night.

In all things, be courageous. Our neighbors deserve nothing less.

This is one of my favorite paintings. At 11x14 it’s not huge but still a favorite.

I really enjoy painting sheep. So much color in their thick coats.

Gift link to a @washingtonpost article in 2020 I wrote about police/law enforcement hiding their names & faces from the public they serve. Seems applicable now. With few exceptions, cops must not be anonymous. We shouldn’t be so afraid of our neighbors
