In Memory of Carol Ann

Posted by PicasaThis teapot is a treasure. It was given to me
in 1988 by my dear friend of 30 plus years when I
moved into a new (to me)home. She loved adventure
and to travel. We learned to snow ski on a trip to Taos, NM
with my daughter Joy and her husband John. After that
we would not miss any chance we had to go skiing. She passed
away earlier this year. It is painted in oil on a
5"x 7" primed masonite panel.

Iced Tea Pitcher


Posted by Picasa6"x 6' oil on masonite
This pitcher was given to me by my
daughter. She knows how much I like
pieces of pottery and ceramics.
We both love to go to fleamarkets and
garage sales to look for treasures.

I painted these from photos I took of
the sunflowers in the previous post.
I enjoyed painted these but painting
from life is so much better.

Faded Sun

These sunflowers were given
to me by my artist friend, Tom.
When I got back from a trip out
of town their droopiness and color
so reminded me of Van Gogh's
sunflowers. SOLD

Black Coffee

Posted by Picasa5 1/2"x 5 1/2"oil on primed masonite
I am a big time coffee drinker. I like it black
and unsweetened and always
have a cup with me at my easel. Sometimes
I even dip my brush in the coffee. And yes,
I have been known to take a big swig out of
the cup after dipping the brush into it.
This cup and saucer is in the same set
as the salad plate in the last painting
"Vine Picked".
