Let's Play Operation Trump

I had a little fun this week doing a few paintings of Donald Trump, I don't hate him or love him , he is just makes great material for Humor. I posted the "Big Wig" one in another blog but I will post it again here. The one I finished yesterday is called "Operation Trump" I hope many will get a good laugh!

Donald Trump With A Big Wig?

Hello everyone I have been working on a few paintings in a Donald Trump series for fun, here is the first one finished and it is a unique diptych that is 28x11 when put together and separate they are 14x11 each. Prints can be purchased with both together and each separate. I would love to hear what you all think about it. Thanks, Leah

Mickey Mouse and Childhood

I finished this painting today and is now available in prints also. One of my first present's I ever received as a child was a Mickey Mouse Watch. My series is about preserving childhood memories, so I thought Mickey would be a great addition to the series based on my own child hood, he is #4. The 3 others consist of a Frog, Sock Doll and Raggedy Ann also all available in print's. Just check out my website by pressing the painting image. I thought about doing commission's with this piece if someone might have a personalized object I can put in a jar for them for a painting. I think it's a cool idea.

Nude Washing Clothes At Nighthawks

"Laundry Day 5" Done! My Mom kept saying how this piece reminded her of Edward Hoppers work , so I thought it would be cool to name the Laundromat Nighthawks since it has that same color feel and loneliness to the woman, my mom thinks someone came in and took all her clothes. I guess there is so many things that can be read into this one. My intention is that she ran out of clothes and they are all in the wash.lol Has anyone seeing my blog ever been in this situation?lol

Have You Ever Run Out Of Clothes To Wear?

I am continually working on my new painting and here is the progress in"Laundry Day 5" one of my most popular series. I have maybe 2 days left in it. Would love to get input on a humorous laundromat title to put on the pink sign if anyone has any input. If you want to check out more of my unique humorous work visit my website I have prints available also. www.paintingmaniac.com

here is another sample of one of my piece's and a link to my whole site

Naked Woman Doing Laundry??

I started the 5th in a series called "Laundry Day" a few days ago one of my MOST popular series ever! You would think I would do more of them, but I only get around to one very 4-5 years. Here is the work in progress with a few days in it. I am still working on toning the body and am going to cover up the thumb on the right side because it's awful. I am still looking for a funky title for the laundromat and it doesn't have to do with nudity just something clever if anyone has any thoughts. Has anyone been in this position where they ran out of clothes? Many have I have many write me from all over the world about being in this exact situation lol. I should be done in a few days keep posted!
