1011 Grateful For The Simple Things

 You may notice that this painting looks an awful lot like 1011 Copy Cat, which was an online class assignment from Trisha Adams.  While I was very happy with the original, I didn't feel it was "my" painting, so I made some changes to it while still implementing the lessons I learned from Trisha.

981 Freshly Picked

It is very exciting for me to grow my own vegetables in my garden.  In this case, these went directly into my studio for my still life set up.  I couldn't dawdle because the fresh vegetables don't stay fresh for very long.

Gardening and painting are my two favorite pastimes, as if you couldn't tell.

882 Hidden Away

In all the visits we've made to Door County, I had never seen this little vignette.  When we were there last month, there was a "Stop the car!" moment, when I got out to photograph this little house amidst the trees.  I love when that happens!

777 Place of Honor

I apologize for the terrible photo.  I can't get the colors right on this.  The "table" is more of a soft yellow/ochre color.  I found this little iron chair at IKEA several years ago, and it was crying out for something to sit upon it.  I think it elevates the importance of the orange.  Silly, I know, but that's how artists think, I think.
