The first sketch you see is one I finished about an hour ago. I named it "Lincoln" because Pres Lincoln changed the world AND believed in The LORD. It is about the ninth time I have drawn and painted a horse. It's watercolors on paper in my sketch book.
The second sketch is also one I drew during the night last nite when I couldn't sleep, then painted it this afternoon. I didn't give it a name yet. When I was a child, I went somewhere with friends or family--that's sort of vague where and when, but the house had those heavy drapes and they were a maroon red. I never forgot the drapes, but did forget everything else about that. It's also watercolor on paper in my sketch book. I will think of a name for it later.
The third sketch is "Little red convertible" and it was or is on another blog of mine in the archives. It's also sketch on paper.
The fourth sketch is "Red Hat" and it shows the liquid acrylics to the right of it, as it sits on my drawing board. I use tube acrylics and liquid acrylics, interchangeably, but since liquids are so easy and quick to thin with water, I use them often. This sketch is in the archives of this same blog and it had to do with the red hat conference in I.T. {information Technology] that week that was in the news. I said this is my idea of RED HAT.
The last one in this series is an oil painting and is one of the ethnic series of paintings that I began in year 2007, when I was still in Colorado. I moved to Missouri Oct 31, 2009 and into my own apt on Nov 3rd that yr. I brought all the art I had in my possession in Colorado with me [but a few sketches and paintings were stolen from me]. I have the actual, tangible art that these photos represent in my possession. I added to the ethnic series this year with the oil paintings: "English Tea party" ; "Mexican" :"Irish student"; "American Rancher", "Sleeping in a stetson"; and in 2013 I painted "The Korean"; and "Peruvian"; and many many sketches for ethnic paintings to be done later. The oil painting below is one I painted in year 2007 and named "the Scotsman". None of the "people" in this post are real people. They are all made up by me with my pencil, and brush. Later on, I might make a mini-exhibit of the newest batch of ethnic paintings that I painted this year; and last year .
Copyright Notice: I, Gloria Poole, currently residing in Missouri but born in the state of Georgia, own all rights to this blog and to all content of it. I also own all rights to the art I create, in any place, for any reason, on any surface, with any medium or tool; and also to all words that I write. I am white, a woman, single again [divorced twice] and the natural mother of two grown daughters who are Jennifer and Leigh. I am Christian, republican, prolife; and a Registered Nurse licensed in Missouri. I am also a writer, blogger, photographer, poet, and author of a children's book. I am also known in art world as simply Gloria since I sign my paintings that way and it is my real name; and as Gloria Poole on some sketches and in real life; and on the web I am known as : gloriapoole; Gloria; Gloria Poole,RN artist; gloriapoole.RN; gloria0817; gpoole817; gloria-poole; gloria_poole; gloria.poole; gloriapoole1749; gloriapooleRN at yahoo; artist-Gloria; gloriapoole-paintings; G-L-O-R-I-A; and other variations of my real born with, legal name of Gloria Poole. Also, I paint in oils and acrylics,goauche,tempera, and watercolors. And I draw with inks, pencils, charcoals. Sometimes I leave them as simply pencil drawings and sometimes I paint them. I paint on canvas, paper, board, masonite, whatever.
For the record: I removed the Pappas name from my name forevermore; and I resumed my maiden surname of Poole after a second divorce in Arapahoe County Colorado in Oct 2007, after 4 horrible years of marriage to DBP; who tried several times to kill me and who injured me seriously more than once. It is necessary to write that, because someone who knows art told me that someone in Colorado is still using my name and art stolen from me to impersonate me {on web}; and someone unknown to me [but most likely exhusband who has a restraining order against him] is still trying to slam my phones and steal my art images. He is not me and he is not authorized to use my name, sign my name, or represent me in any way whatsoever. He is less educated than I am,and totally opposite every principle of GOD and I would not ever consent for him to represent me in any way and never did agree to that. He spit on me, called me "Jesus-freak" and other names, and tried to "kill me and steal everything I own" as he said he would do in year 2005, 2006,2007. I am trying to prevent theft of my name and my ID and my art by these words.
Back on task:
I put art I created on several blogs all along [for years] but this past week, I put art I created in which I used red paint extensively and named it a "mini-exhibit." Remember each blog is different, and has a different mini-exhibit of the color red [paint} on art I created. Those blogs with other "RED" art I created are [and they have art I created all through archives]: https://gloria0817.blogspot.com
https://gpoole817.blogspot.com
https://artist-gloriapoole-blogspot.com
https://gloriapoole-paintings.blogspot.com
http://gloriapoole.wordpress.com
http://gloriapoole1749.wordpress.com
And of course, if you scroll back on this same blog you will see the first post in which I grouped together red art I created. Also, I put cartoons I create on my cartooning blogs: https://cartooning-by-gloriapoole.blogspot.com; and there's a good bit of red there too; and https://sites.google.com/site/PooleGloria.
But I put art I created on almost all my blogs including my prolife blogs of:

https://words-that-work-llp.blogspot.com
https://news-for-life.blogspot.com
https://prolife-nurse.blogspot.com
https://real-women-have-babies.blogspot.com. today, I put art I created to illustrate my point on this blog. Think world will like it.

and all blogs I create on any platform!

Update at 8:20pm by me Gloria because I omitted two of the ethnic paintings I painted in 2013 that I have already displayed on other blogs.
Update by me Gloria Poole of Missouri at my apt in Missouri, 22-Feb-2014 at 4:04pm to update the blogs with red paint art I created. And to notify the public that Facebook is brain-dead it seems. Their automated system cannot tell the difference in the name Gloria and the name Antwon. There is NO person named Antwon in my apt or in my life or authorized on any sort of account of mine. I do not know anyone named Antwon yet Facebook sends his updates on Facebook to my gmail, so it seems "Antwon" is an ID thief. Facebook is trying to help one of their notorious ID thieves steal content from me as far as I can tell and Facebook s-p-am-s me with notices about people I never heard of! AAAGH! . Explain that to a NON-Facebook person, as I am thoroughly disgusted with Facebook con-games. I do NOT have a Facebook account and do not really care if Facebook HQ gets swallowed up by the next tsunami! So, this is a help to the good #FBI and to #Google to get rid of "Antwon" from using any email or any sort of account of mine! I also do not have a Pinterest account and never had either a Facebook or a Pinterest acct and do not want either. I create original art that I am not willing for cyber-criminal "Antwon" to steal using Facebook fraud.
