The Watering Can

She slips out to granny's garden. Oh no! the flowers are

wilting. She runs back to the shed and finds it, her little watering

can. She is happy as can be as she sees the wilted leaves perk up.

This is a good day, a day for memories.

Tipped Over

Tipped Over

I am intrigued by squash, goards,and pumpkins. Actually I am intrigued by a lot of things.

I guess as most other artist I almost drool at shapes and values, hues and down right color.

I found these goards at wetcanvas and had to paint them. I have struggled to develop my STYLE.

What I ask myself  is my style? Sometimes it seems as though each and every time I sit down to

paint the canvas is new and I have forgotten how I did it the last time.

Yesterday and today I started out drawing

my intended painting which I rarely ever do but I am ready for some change. I also painted on 12x12

a change from my comfort zone of 5x7. Who knows what I will do tomorrow but as for today I am

pretty happy with the results.

When I Fall In Love

When I Fall In Love

This painting makes me think of love. The bold play of color, uncontrolled

brushstrokes, the play of light, reflections and even hidden things, things which need

a closer look to study its truth. Thus the title: When I Fall In Love

Pumpkins are so intriguing. The vegetable is so firm and plump yet the 

stem is crooked and many times bent. I loved painting the rich oranges and 

blues in this painting. Today was a good day of painting.

These flowers have a painterly look. No wonder because instead

of me having control. This painting controlled me.

I pushed paint around, added, softened and then finally just stopped.
