Happy New Year!

Artist Note

I am still working on this painting. 

Taking my time to think it out.

Tweak or not to tweak...

that is the question!

As the sun sets on 

2020

I  want to thank you 

for the support you gave me and my art

during this weird year. 

It has meant so much.

My painting habits have changed 

due to being at home with a

dear hubby - who is delighted to have

me around due to him being able to enjoy

regular meals served on time.

(I do not kid myself it is 

due to my scintillating personality!)

I have always worked and been a do-er

so learning to be idle has been quite a feat.

I miss teaching and the wonderful artists 

I was around. BUT... I am grateful to be healthy

and in a position where I can stay safe and

 thanking heavens for Walmart grocery pick-up.

I am also becoming a ping pong player!

Let me know how YOU have adapted

to the new routines 

with any helpful hints you may have.

 I want to wish you all

 a much better new year than this last

one has probably been.

May 2021 Bless YOU with 

Health, Joy and Peace

Artist Note

This painting was started after seeing 

the hollyhocks on my morning walk.

I came back with hubby who napped

 in the car while I got a start.

   I finished it at home.

I wonder if any of you still get my blog

because it has been almost

 three months since I last posted. 

I have never gone that long before.

AND...what months they have been.

Covid has turned them into 

an anxious time of worry 

for our loved ones and ourselves...

The lucky artist can work at home

 IF 

the creative drive is still flowing.

 I am happy 

to feel mine is slowly returning 

to where I am 

at least "thinking" painting

as I go about my day.

I am sending warmest wishes for 

safe and happier days 

while we adjust to the new norm.

Blessings.

much success with. Please go to

Artist Note.
The red and green color
combination - although a recognized
color harmony
is hard for me to handle
without
adding blue or purple.

So why paint the leaves at all?
Well, that's the way my friend
gave them to me... right off her tree
and it looked wonderful.
Just hard for me to paint!

It seems the paintings of pomegranates
 I like have no leaves... or just a few.

Julien Merrow Smith did this one
and I love it.

How about the mastery of  Duane Keiser!
Have you seen his new pomegranate painting?
It is only 33 seconds so treat yourself.

Check out all his videos - they are a real treat.

Do you have a favorite pomegranate painting?
If so, please give me a heads up where
to look so I can check it out.
I want to be inspired!!
