The Girl In The Orange Sweater Vest
I was in the mood for an extra splash of colour this week and felt orange, pink, and mustard would be just the ticket!

The Lady Never Liked Having Her Portrait Painted
The Lady Never Liked Having Her Portrait Painted, oil on canvas, 12"x14". Sold.
I can relate. Except that it's having my photograph taken, which I'm sure I've complained about several times already. I don't know what happens and believe me I've studied it carefully and so has John. I never look like how I really look. It's like a completely different person staring back at me. At first I just thought it was vanity (naturally) but I've had second and third opinions on this and everyone is in agreement- the person in the photo is a stranger. Creepy. I think it's inherited or something as my mother doesn't look like herself in photos either. I even had an great aunt who is better known as 'Evil Aunt Kate' and she was a renowned beauty (but quite evil), and yet there is no photographic evidence as she refused to have her picture taken. I'm thinking that there's more to this story than what I've been told. This is where family legends start....

The General Was Known For Her Porcelain Complexion And Pleasing Countenance
The General Was Known For Her Porcelain Complexion And Pleasing Countenance, oil on canvas, 7"x9". Sold.
As I am still at war with the bunny in the backyard, I felt it was appropriate to post a military themed painting. Doesn't it just figure that even though this young 'Lady General' is busy blowing things up and setting fire to God knows what, she is still only valued for her looks. Sheesh! I do quite admire her hair clip though.

What Are We Going To Do About Julia?
What Are We Going To Do About Julia?, oil on canvas, 8"x8". For sale on etsy.
It's anyone's guess as to what is ailing Julia. Is she in love? Is she pondering the problems of the world? Or perhaps it's just a touch of malaise.

Wild Violet And Bluebelle Await A Lecture On Propriety
Wild Violet And Bluebelle Await A Lecture On Propriety, oil on canvas. 9"x12". Sold.
We return to the Manor house once again. These two are the 'troublemaker' cousins of Catherine, Greer, and Max. They may not look like it, but they wreak havoc wherever they go (pretty girls are the worst, you know). So it appears that the matriarch of the manor (Silke Westlake) is the only one who may be able to straighten them out. We'll see.....

Have a great weekend!
