Day One Hundred-Forty Nine

                                                 'Patent Leather with straps'

8 x 8 oil on panel
60.00 + 6.00 s + h





     I got tired of all the veggies and found these cute shoes at Goodwill, so thought I'd change it up a bit.   We've had snow here for so long and we've just been inside the house getting 'cabin fever'.    Maybe I'll invest in a plein aire easel so I can go outside as soon as it's warm and paint !  Does anyone order from Jerry's Artarama ?

  2. What a darling painting! Great composition with the little shoes on the children's books. Really well done.

    I order from Jerry's Artarama all the time. I've never ordered an easel, but I order all kinds of supplies. They are exactly what they say they are, as far as quality. And they have great prices. I also order from Dick Blick. Same thing. Good luck!

  7. Sandy, this is a really nice composition and you did a really good job on it. Jerry's is my favorite place to shop..I have never had a problem there.

    Thanks for the comment on my blog. Yes, the background was painted with a knife (desperation move).
