Let Your Conscience Be Your Guide, oil on cradled board, 18 x 24
Remember when Disney used to make good movies? In Pinocchio Jiminy Cricket tried to lead Pinocchio down the right path by telling him to "give a little whistle and let your conscience be your guide."
This tin wide up Jiminy and the plastic Pinocchio are from my collection of vintage toys. As I'm downsizing these days my vintage toys will be the last thing to go!

All the the Vintage Game Board paintings I've been creating recently
have been 'Boy' games (Cowboys, Indians, Super Heroes). I decided it was
time to do a 'Girl' game. And what could be more Girly than Barbie, The
Famous Teenage Fashion Doll?
My favorite barbie accessory is the Cat-Eye sunglasses. This game
includes Boyfriend cards and Formal cards among others. And what
teenage girl could live without her Telephone?
This game has a copyright date of 1960 from Mattel. In this game you are
Barbie. You win if you are the first player to be crowned Queen of the Prom. But in order to win you must have a steady boyfriend, a prom dress and be elected president of a school club.

Here's my latest Trompe L'oeil painting in my Vintage Board Game series. This game was manufactured by Parker Brothers in 1959.
My Orbit game is in pretty good shape. Fortunately, I have 2 very beat
up Monopoly games that I used for inspiration for the tape, dents and
dings.

I just felt like doing another painting with my cowboy friend Howdy Doody.
This unlucky fellow has a broken rope, A horse shoe with the luck flowing out and a few bullet holes in his sheet music. But he just keeps on smiling. There's a lesson there somewhere.

PB&J #2, oil on linen, 24 x 36
In a recent survey when asked about Peanut Butter and Jelly preferences 36 % say strawberry jam is favorite (grape is 31%); favorite bread is white bread (54%); favorite type of peanut butter is smooth (56%) and a whopping 80 % like their PB & J with the crust left on the sandwich.
This painting reflects 3 out of 4 of the top choices. I'm fond of Apricot jam, wheat bread, Crunchy (!!!) and crust on. How about you?

Superman's first appearance was in Action Comics #1. Superman became popular very quickly. By 1940 the amount of merchandise available increased dramatically, with
jigsaw puzzles, paper dolls, bubble gum and trading cards available, as
well as wooden or metal figures.
This 1940 game by Milton Bradley is the first and rarest of the early Superman board games, which
was also offered as a premium in the Superman Bubble Gum Club prize
folder. The box shows Superman stopping an
oncoming airplane.

A happy and innocent looking mouse has spilled a jar of colorful gumballs. He has one in a bag ready to make his get away.
Wow! I was awarded 2 place Overall in the April Plein Air Magazine contest but I thought this was an online show and it didn't occur to me that I would be in the magazine. So I was surprised when I got a copy of the Sept issue and there was my painting "The Making of a Cowboy" on page 80!
I love unexpected blessings. But aren't all blessings unexpected?
