Salt and Pepper

Challenge this week, paint without color. My very special pewter salt and pepper shakers. Vintage and memories of days gone by.

Painted on a sheet of 8x11 inch watercolor paper.

I Need Color

Painted this today in watercolor. As February winds down, winter hanging on with a vengeance,
all I can say is I Need Color.

Mat size is 11x14.

Tree in Spring

March is but two weeks away. This is a tree in my back yard, I have a little fairy door, window and steps for the bottom of the tree. Of course, the fairies and the fairy door are packed away for the winter. Tonight's temperature is zero. I'm using this time to paint and not venture out of doors.

Simple Things

A very simple palette knife painting of my daughter's pitcher. I love the minimalist design of this white pitcher, so elegant.

Painted in oil on a 12x9 inch board.

Water, wind, wonder

Day 16 of the challenge. 12x9 inch oil painting,,palette knife and brush. Small child at the beach.

Challenge day 15

Day 15 of the 30 day challenge. I wanted to paint these amazing glasses my son bought while at the Van Gogh museum. Adding to the still life a bottle of Chardonnay that had a beautiful label titled Ghost Pines.

The colors in the photo are not as vibrant as the real painting. Another challenge to living in the NE of the US.
