I seem to be going through a floral phase.....
The Silver Sugar Bowl
Posy
Posy, oil on canvas, 6"x6". Sold.
It was a sad morning as John and I raked up nine more bags of leaves from our backyard. I can no longer trick myself into thinking that winter isn't around the corner. However, I can still paint some pretty flowers, so here is a little painted posy and I dedicate it to all of those who despise winter as much as I do. I'm also now so sore from the bending and the lifting and the hauling of leaves that I'm walking around the house like Frankenstein's Monster. Even sound like him too.
Snow White’s Bedroom
Snow White's Bedroom, oil on canvas, 9"x12". Sold.
If I had a wicked stepmother with a deadly vendetta against me, this is probably where I would want to hide out. Books, pretty outfits, and a friendly watchful owl to chat with. Not sure about the apple though. That looks a tad menacing.
I should mention that there will eventually be more in my Black Walnut Manor series for anyone who may be interested. I've actually worked on a few paintings for it, but haven't quite worked out the direction- it's dull artsy stuff that's too boring to really explain very well. In short, when it doesn't feel entirely right, I just set it aside and come back to it when it does. Of course, that's my excuse for a lot of things- laundry included.
French Girl
Nola At The Club
Nola At The Club, oil on canvas, 9"x12". Sold.
Nola appears to be a woman of style and substance. And it was great fun to paint a capelet.
