PLAY TIME

This is the third painting that is using time as a reference, which could result in a series that goes on and on!!!!! This is a painting of a toy elephant with that old pottery barn clock again. I have a basket full of toys for my granddaughter, and this is one of her favorites. I'm not certain if I will carry on this 'time series' ..... What do you think???? I am kind of running out of ideas ..... and am tired of painting the same clock ! Your comments are appreciated.

"LYLE'S ROSES"

Sunday,  was a beautiful fall afternoon here in Kansas City.  A friend and I dove out to the countryside and stopped at a lovely farm to do some sketching.  The owners gave us a bouquet of roses that had to be painted!!!!

"MUMS IN A CUP" SOLD

These tiny chrysanthemums are from my garden.  I love the autumn with all of the abundant colors.

"FRESH FROM THE MARKET"

More fruit today!  These apples are from our local farmers market.  I am still using a limited palette of Cad yellow light, Cad red light, and Ultramarine Blue plus Titanium white.

Your comments are welcome

"THREE RED BARTLETTS"

The colors of harvest are abundant!

"THREE ON A PLATE"

This is #11 of my "painting-a-day" series.  I am enjoying the challenge of painting something new everyday.  Each new subject presents new problems.  This one was to depict the freshness of the fruit.  One of the biggest challenges is to get something on the canvas within two or three hours.  I am painting each one, without additional editing, so that months from now.... I can see if I have achieved growth.  Your comments are most welcome.  

"DESERT ROSE AND A PEACH"

I love this set of dishes, and have had them for years.  Always beautiful on any table!
