Neck Deep in Flowers!




I just finished the flower painting for my Grandma. She wanted me to add a touching verse that has been an encouragement to her over the years.
The lettering was tricky to color, but with the added black in the flowers it all balanced out. The painting was done in acrylic paint on canvas with paint pen accents. In one of the photos you can see the view from our sunroom. A wall of flowers! Very inspiring until I look closely at how much I need to get out there and weed! Ugggg....no guts, no glory eh? ")

Houses for Dad


I have officially moved out of the "Cake" phase. Now  it is Monet & the Impressionists! Dad asked for a street scene after seeing the flowers I did for Grandma. (See last post.) Took this one right out of England where Dad was born. I am still really working on technique, but for a three hour piece, I am very happy with it.
