Damsel Fish, originally uploaded by Citrinepoint.
Technically it’s not a real Damsel Fish. It’s an artistic iterpretation of one. I really hope you enjoy this as much as I enjoyed painting it.
Snake in the Grass, originally uploaded by Citrinepoint.
This one has quite a bit of symbolism to me.
It also helped me break through a mini block I had recently.
Figaro, originally uploaded by Citrinepoint.
Figaro is one of our cats. He is a tabby Persian mix. He’s a sweetie and probably one of the prettiest cats of the four we own.

Tiger Spirit, originally uploaded by Citrinepoint.
White Tiger
huntress
keeper of the West
I finished the Four Chinese Guardians of the Compass when I realized that I had done White Tiger horizontally and the others were all vertical. I had been wanting to re-do Tiger anyhow and so here we are.
I am a bit happier with this one. It is the least abstract of all the paintings but I felt the subject called for it.
If you like this work you can still buy a print on Imagekind.

Black Warrior

Earth Holder
Part of a series I’m doing called Compass Guardians.
according to Chinese legend the Black Turtle holds the
Earth on his back. A symbol of longevity and indestructibility.
The Guardian of the North represents the Universe and creation.

Phoenix, originally uploaded by Citrinepoint.Today I decided to challenge myself to do 50 paintings in 50 days. Phoenix is the first painting I completed for the challenge. How appropriate I thought. Having been burned in it’s own fire the Phoenix arises a new from the ashes. A new beginning in my life in many ways. The wonder and beauty in this painting certainly reflects my outlook on life right now.
