Potted Plants

These flower pots are a quick go-to for me when I have had to do all sorts of uncreative stuff like wash clothes and add up receipts for taxes among other Monday stuff that required my attention. When I only have 20 minutes before washing my face and going to bed these pots are just the answer when the day is almost gone and nothing was created. I hate it when a day goes by and I didn't get to pick up a paint brush.

Day 23 of 30 Day Challenge

This is an 8x8 acrylic painting. I only have acrylic here in my home studio and I have still been a bit under the weather and not really feeling like going over to the studio so this is today's painting. It is an adaptation of a pot in one of my favorite inspiration books called Container Gardens. I so wish I could grow and tend a container garden myself but I think I am just better off painting them.

This will probably be my last painting for this "30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge." I almost made it to 30 but I have to admit, the pressure to paint and post one everyday and be happy with it is certainly a "challenge"!  I need to tend to some family matters and get well from this nasty old virus thing that I have so I will return really soon hopefully ready to paint again!
Congratulations to all who are still hanging in there with the challenge!!! Keep going!!

Day 21 of 30 Paintings Challenge

Oh man, the pressure in on now. I am determined to get to thirty. This is a crazy little 6x8 of a still life that tried so hard to work---and maybe it worked enough to post it and call it #21.  I am feeling like I am in the 4 grade again doing math homework--just get'er done! Anyway, this is a little Angus wannabe painting.

I have my favorite painters in which Angus is one as well as Trisha Adams. I will be in her workshop very soon! Ok! 21 done 9 to go!

Day 13 of 30-30 Challenge

Day 12 of 30 Paintings in 30 Days

This blue pitcher always makes a painting pretty. It's not the easiest to paint with all the designs but it's one of my favorite things to put into a painting. It was only $8 at the antique store. 

This is a 9x12 on a canvas.
