"R Daisies Blue?"


 I painted this Yesterday, and I didn't do anything else.  The canvas was painted awhile ago with left over paint from my Tall Trees painting, mostly orangy tones...   reference was a photo i took of a vase of flowers years ago.  Fascinated by the daisies being blue. Way before AI ..  ha.  

 Background is a bit messy and streaked but I'll call it "Abstraction"

Tall Trees and Some Rocks


 I'm enjoying painting on this format. It actually took me 3 days to paint this in Acrylic.  I wanted autumn leaves against dark sky.  I had a photo taken in Oregon in 1996 with a zillion trees and loved the color contrast.  I kinda made up the lower 3/4 of this work as i went along. And I used my 'stay-wet' palette that i hadn't used in years .

Arranged by B


 My niece Becky has retired (What??) and has gotten into gardening and arranging flowers in the most beautiful ways.  This is my interpretation of one, using a photo she sent.  I painted it yesterday cause i was needing to create something.

Humble Hummels


 We are having an ancestry themed show at G4 next month.  I am mostly German, What to paint??  My parents brought these figures back from their trip to Germany in the 70's.  They were prized and special at that time.     They reside in my china cupboard with a lot of other weird stuff.

Turquoise

I did this image in Watercolor many years ago. Loved the colors .. Painted this one in Acrylic yesterday afternoon to keep my mind off hearing about a friends husband being SO sick.  It brings back thoughts of Carl's illness and treatments.  AANYWAY  .. I may post the old w/c on here as well.   i found it..   "Lone Chair"was on my blog in 2009. ..

In A Fowl Mood and Worn Out

This is how i spent the 4th, painting small.  They are 5" x 5" in acrylic.  I have painted these images before in different formats, so i feel like i "know" them. Do I need more ideas for subject matter?  Really??
