Faded Roses

Faded Roses
Sometimes roses only get better. I love those shriveled ones which have dried
out. The faint fragrance still lingers. It is one of the wonderful things which God has given us.
Along with the smell of a puppy's breath, and children's hugs. Life really is wonderful.

I wanted to paint an egg because usually I struggle with them.
 I have even been thinking of painting a series of eggs just because.
We will see but for now it is just a thought because I only have
one egg in the fridge. Maybe I will buy some more soon.

Label Still On

Label Still On
One outstanding thing about this pear is that little blue label.
As I painted this pear I really tried to simplify yet maintain the beauty
of the label.

Of course I changed it a little which is not always a good thing but
then sometimes it is. I did stay a little messy with the leaves or I guess I
should say loose instead of messy. Oh well! I do kinda like the end
result. If you go to paintanddraw you can see all of the entries.

I just attended a workshop In Birmingham at Alabama Art Supply. The

panels black before painting. Loved it.

I found these bowls at TJ Maxx

them and I will move on to something else.

I just couldn't resist painting it one more time. I chose to change the color of the vase but
that is what art is all about. I like being able to change anything I want. It kinda gives
me a sense of control. I like it. Control I mean.

Sweet and Sour Pork

Sweet and Sour Pork
This is a painting of a little clear tinted blue vase I found somewhere
about two years ago but have been kinda apprehensive about painting it until
today. It was quite fun. I must confess that I did study Helen Coopers paintings to determine
how I should approach the colored glass. Check out her blog. This was so much fun.
I do find lemons quite a challenge too. Oh yeah and that crazy wide up pig was
just begging to be painted once again.
