Cutie love

     Sometimes the simplest subjects are the best.   The “cuties” that we buy in the summertime my granddaughter loves as her favorite snack. I always try to have some on hand

Stand up and look alive

         
                       This Spring I taught a workshop for a new art organization in St. Louis
                   called  Heartland Art Club.   I have resisted teaching since I retired, but was

                   for my students, and also completed a demo each of the 6 Tuesdays.   Here is

Day 3 of the 30/30 challenge

Back to the basics..

Day One Hundred-Five

                                     'My Favorite Mug'

6 x 8 oil on panel

40.00 + 6.00 s + h

     My favorite mug says ART as you can see, but I'm pretty sure it was meant for some guy named Art... oh, well, I like it better than all my others.  The coffeecake was a home-made apple one that my daughter made for Christmas morning.  Such good accompaniment for my 'studio snack'-  I went to set up and found myself wanting to paint my snack instead of eating it.... Now I can dig into that coffeecake !! walnuts, too... yum
