I also painted these violets. Like I said it was a painting kind of day.

Enjoy your weekend!

a day spent painting

On this rainy day I spent my day painting in my studio. I'm working on shading and highlighting in my paintings. I used the same colors as the lilly of the previos post. Yellow light, white, yellow citron.
I have some daisies painted, I'll post them when I mount them onto cards.

my first creation from my lovely studio

I picked a lilly from my garden and painted what I saw.
I used yellow light, yellow citron, white and true burgundy acrylic paints.
The paper is watercolor paper.

Nick's First Communion

This is my brother Nick with Mom and Dad at his first communion back in June 1960.
I mounted it and put it in a shadow box frame and it now hangs on the wall in my studio.
Special memories!

my studio is complete!

Now for the fun part of creating!

Hope to be posting some art work soon!

lilacs

painted this lilac this winter.
It's not raining today so I'm working on the yard. Getting an area ready to transplant flowers from our hotbed.
We have some lilac bushes in our yard, so cleaned that area up and put some mulch around the bushes, there's some iris there too.
