Monday, August 30, 2010. Ghost Mountain Pastel Triptych. When visiting my cousin last fall near San Diego we went up to Ghost Mountain in the San Borrego desert. I fell in love with the view and took about a zillion photos. This is a pastel triptych I did on sanded paper. Each panel is 11” x 14”. Thursday, August 26, 2010. Brochure for my 'playhouse'. Liz said this photo looks like Gemma and Fitzie are on a brochure advertising for my 'playhouse'. Wednesday, August 25, 2010. Monday, August 23, 2010.

Sunday, March 13, 2011. Ellie and Natasha out for tea. Ellie (the yellow dog on the left) and Natasha (the malamute) are best friends. They go on a trip to the Bahamas, to baseball games and have other adventures. I have them in sets of note cards for sale. A cartoon and quote on the front, blank on the inside to write your own message. The girls are based on my best friend, Vicki and myself when we were in college. We have been friends since then. a very, long time! And I love their dresses!

Mary's art: September 2010
http://marysartblog.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 30, 2010. Rest In Peace, my brother Mike. This is a mixed media piece I created for my brother, Mike Telfer, who passed away last night. I made it for him last Christmas and he told me it was the best gift he ever recieved. I am so grateful for that. It's a collage about them winning the World Series in 2005 and also about our family. The Chicago White Sox were one thing Mike and I connected about very regularily. I love art, combining media, family, the White Sox and I love you, Mike.

Mary's art: Happy Birthday, Evie!
http://marysartblog.blogspot.com/2011/03/happy-birthday-evie.html
Monday, March 7, 2011. Happy Birthday, Evie! My daughter Liz rescued two racing greyhounds, Evie and Theresa. Here is a portrait I did of Liz and Evie from a photo of the day they first met. What incredible happiness they bring to all of us. The portrait is 22" x 30" done in Unison pastels. Evie is 7 years old tomorrow! Happy Birthday, Evie! If you would like a portrait of a human or animal - or both! And that painting really captures her weird greyhound stare just perfectly! March 8, 2011 at 7:02 AM.
