Bird on a Wire

I did this while looking a Van Gogh's  Vase with Irises against a Yellow Background. This was a challenge from Daily Paintworks, an on-line art community, full of wisdom and encouragement.

Everyday Breakfast

This was submitted to The DPW Painting Challenge. We were all asked to paint our breakfast. Not literally of course, I mean we were asked to paint a painting of what our breakfast looks like.

I Break for Tea

This is this week's challenge for DPW we were supposed to paint our favorite mug. Since no photo was supplied I took my stuff outside into the sun and set up my own composition. I had never done that before! I enjoyed playing around with the objects. I then took a photo and printed it off and begun to paint. I LOVE tea and this is one of my favorites, Peachberry Jasmine Sutra which has a lovely color and smell. The big mug allows me to stick my face in it and smell it as well as taste it.

I'm Sill in Love With You

This was for the DPW Challenge. The challenge was to get the values correct. We were given a black and white photo and told to paint it then check our own painting in black and white to see if we got it right. I think I got the values pretty close . 5" x 7" $ 100

Glorious Groundcover

This was painted for the DPW challenge. We were limited to the colors we were to use, we were asked to paint from nature not a photo and we were given an hour. So this is what I came up with. Definitely better than an old painting of mine that I painted over. Still if I had more time...
