1060 Summer Love

 My rooftop garden vegetables are winding down, but the flowers are exploding in number and with color.  I'm fascinated with the every-which-way of the nasturtium leaves and flowers.  Putting together a still life arrangement is often the most difficult part of making a painting, but this was a no brainer.  The wine bottle is a favorite and was given to me by a dear friend.  I purchased the Van Briggle over 36 years ago, and it has been a treasured souvenir from Colorado.   I really love the way all these colors came together.

1057 Intoxicating

 A dear friend of mine gave me an empty wine bottle that is an artistic masterpiece all by itself.  It has color blocking and I love incorporating it into my still lifes.  

1051 Summertime and the Living is Easy

 I got a lot of mileage out of these sunflowers and other props during my week long painting class last week.  Sunflowers are such a happy flower and brighten up any room.  I am growing them in my garden this year and they are growing to be enormous.  I was given the seeds by my friend Roberta and I had no idea what kind of sunflowers they would be, but now I see they are bigger than life!  Hopefully they will FIT in a painting.
