Imagine a this turquoise Chrysocolla art print hanging in your home. "The Geology Series, Chrysocolla 102 " is a large art print, from my original painting. The Chrysocolla print could be just the thing to brighten up that wall. Saturated colors of blue and browns give this fine art print the ability to blend with both modern art or southwestern art or cowboy art colors schemes. This large, colorful, Contemporary Art Abstract Print, with it's layers of brilliant color, would look great in any room. Imagine how warm and earthy this print would look hung on a earth-tone colored wall. The color of turquoise is so vibrant, so full of energy. And, at the same time, is soothing and calming. Chrysocolla is used to attract love...Place a piece of chrysocolla in your hand. Visualize a love being attracted to you.

Place the stone in a red or pink container half filled with water. Next, put three red roses in the container as well. Replace with fresh roses when any fade.

Your love will come to you!

The dimensions of this fine art print are 16 inches wide x 20 inches tall. Professionally printed on Matte Photo Paper, this print will come ready to frame and shipped in a study cardboard shipping cylinder.

I admit it, I'm a Rock Hound. I can't resist picking up rocks. So why not paint the things that I like? Painted rocks? No, paintings of rocks. Hence, The Geology Series.

I love the way these art prints look, the color is amazing. They always get noticed and commented on in my studio.

Big and majestic, turquoise painted steer skull print. This fine art print is so dramatic. This skull would look great with a cowboy, western or Southwestern decor. Maybe the wife would not mind this colorful steer head print hanging in the family room. This cow skull is more art than animal trophy.
  The original painted skull sold for several hundred dollars. Hang this print on your wall and spend time admiring it, instead of cleaning off spider webs and dust, like you would with the real skull.

I found the cow skull packed away in storage. Rather than toss it, or give it away, I decided to clean it ,and ask my sweet heart to paint it. She is a professional, award winning artist, whose turquoise paintings have sold for hundreds of dollars. You can see more of her art work at

Old Chevy Truck Art Print 1946 Digital Painting

 Old Chevy Truck Art Print   Here is another one of those "projects" that has been waiting for several years. Fortunately it belongs to my son and therefore it's his project. The colors are marvelous, so I decided to turn it into an oil painting.  Many years of sun, cold and wind have exposed the layers of paint, revealing it's colorful history.
I enjoy digitally painting old cars, trucks, buildings and landscapes. I can also render a portrait of your favorite pet.
If you have a photo that would look great as a portrait, contact me and I will turn it into a keepsake.

Pet Portrait Before and After

 

Our pets are a very special part of our lives. The before and after photos above are of Penny when she was around a year old. She loves to play in Liana's rose gardens, where this shot was taken. Adding a few extra roses and chive blooms really helps to frame her, very photogenic face. Her left eye looked a bit off, so I cloned the right and performed a digital transplant. She is a very cute little cat and made a great painting. Have your pets photograph turned into a portrait. I will create a one of a kind, artwork especially for you.

Horseshoe Vintage Glass Insulator Candle Holder

Here is a new style of Western horseshoe candle holders that I am marketing on Etsy.

As with all of my sculptures the recycled horseshoes are used. I clean them up and give each one a new life.

The finish is an antique leather look. The Vintage Glass insulator has an aqua green color that is enhanced greatly by candle light.

I have some more interesting designs to come so stay tuned....

Cowboy Horseshoe Sculpture - Walking Back

Howdy
My name is Tom and I guess that's why I call this Tom's Critters.
I started creating the sculptures many years ago , mostly as gifts for friends and family.
I have a sweetie now who is an amazing artist . Liana is her name and she suggested that I try my hand at selling them. Well I've been around long enough to know when something is "suggested " you had better get your butt in gear and do it !!
When I create a sculpture I start with old used horseshoes , sort them out and clean them up.
I believe this gives the piece of work some character. One could only imagine the story each shoe would tell, the miles and trail's traveled not to mention the stuff stepped in !
My goal is to tell a story of western life in each of my creation's . The statue above " Walking Back " tells of a wrangler who has lost his trusted companion and now has to walk back to camp carrying his saddle.
I will be having more sculptures and also a few utilitarian items to show , coming real soon.

Horseshoe Sculpture -The Cow Skull

Hello again...
This sculpture I started about 20 years ago.
My darlin' Liana "encouraged " me to finish it and here it is .
A lot of time and effort went into this piece. It has been so long I have forgotten just how much..
Well at any rate it is now finished and listed.
I really like the finish I have on this , it's an old leather look.
This will probably be a one-of-a-kind , it is very unique.
Reckon I had better get to work on the next creation.
See Ya
Tom
