Once again, two freebie bunches of flowers consolidated into one. Nice having a good source for fresh flowers, thank you Food Bank! Done with a big brush, very loose and sketchy.

Oh, I like this one, I couldn't tell you exactly why. Maybe it's the feeling of space, maybe it's the warm grasses in the field. Or just the overall sense of peace here in this big openness.

Since this one didn't sell at $25, I've revised it a bit, and lowered the price.
I deepened the color of the snow shadows, and added more light to the pines, filled them out a bit more, and added the twigs and grasses. Better I think.

We've got cold, raw, wet rain today (OK, I'm grateful it's not snow, but...), and I am thinking greens and colors. I'll still be doing still life, and snow scenes, but for today, I'm resting assured that we will have spring, summer and fall again. Greens and colors, and warmth.

Another visit to the Food Bank over the weekend. It's so nice that I can also get flowers there, pick a couple of packages, and then discard the dead flowers, make a new bouquet from the survivors. Along with my blue vase from our local hospital thrift shop.

I have to admit that I had help with this one. My 6 year old granddaughter loves to draw and paint, so she sat on my lap (lap painting, Yay) and did the white snow for me. But only to the edges. "I can blend, TT!" So I let her do a little of that too.

Here's Kayla painting outside on the deck this past summer. (See the tongue action?)

Our pastor on Thanksgiving Eve was a local rabbi who announced at the service that he also ran a Food Bank out of his third garage. We were invited to follow him home and it was a bonanza of lovely food, a lot of it from Trader Joe's. I've gone back about four times since then, and have had some wonderful meals, fresh produce only slightly marred, and this time when I went I took three almost dead bunches of flowers, picked through them, and made this freebie bouquet. What's not to like?

There was a nice sale on tucked canvases today at Michaels, 5" x 7" tucked into 8" x 10", tucked into 12" x 16", and two more larger graduating sizes of canvases. All five for $14.95. Good deal, right? So here's the first one on the 5" x 7", just a quick pepper, since I still have them.

It feels as though I've forgotten how to paint, it's been awhile. I got to have my granddaughter for the weekend, and of course, no painting then, but lots of play time.

This is Kayla, after church on Sunday. Isn't she a sweetie?

Once again, I have run out of canvas, and am using painting income to do shipping. So it's time for a watercolor or two. This one is basically from my imagination, twisty and frilly. The blue one is (intended to be) two irises, one behind the other.
