The Princess Phone, oil on canvas, 8"x10". Sold.
I watched 'A Single Man' last night and became obsessed. Not so much with Colin Firth like most people would, but rather with the style of the film and more specifically with Charley's (Julianne Moore) house, furnishings, accessories, and her adorable aqua princess phone. This painting was well underway, but I just knew that princess phone belonged in this painting. It was the missing piece to the puzzle.
I think Tom Ford should make more movies, even though it made me cry.
Leona And The Yellow Bird, 16"x20", oil on canvas. Sold.
To be honest, I don't really want to sell Leona. There's something a little magical about her and I wouldn't mind holding on to her. However, I'm a reasonably fair person (most of the time) so I thought I would give her a little opportunity to find a home.
Ever have one of those weeks where everything just goes terribly? So much so that you find yourself almost laughing at the end of it because you just can't believe how much worse it can get...and then it keeps getting worse? Well, that was me last week. I must have lost my luck charm somewhere. However, some friends came by yesterday with beautiful summer flowers and we drank wine in the afternoon and somehow, things felt a whole lot better. I thought I'd share their wild beauty with you and hope that the upcoming week is a good one...for everyone.

Francine And Her Frenchie, oil on canvas, 10"x12". Sold.
Store Bought, oil on canvas, 10"x14". Sold.
I spent most of the weekend working away on that larger piece that I mentioned in an earlier post and I found myself so fed up with it that I needed to paint something a little looser for a while. This painting is the result. It's sketchier and looser than what I normally do and was a refreshing change from the detail of the big canvas. Plus, I've always wanted to paint chocolate mice. I think they may appear in a few more paintings in the future.
