Open Door - day 16 in the challenge


Open Door
9x12in oil on canvas  
unfinished!

Artist Note.
This is a larger size than the others in this Challenge
 and when I started out I had a dog
included...
- took him out -
- put him in -
- took him out again -
 And I still want to see if I can put him in there,
This chair belongs to good friends and I feel
their much loved dog
should be included
Because of the pressure of the daily challenge 
I needed to post before completing it.

This is painted on black gesso canvas. 
You can see where it is not covered.

Tomorrow I start of a new theme - flowers!

Nap Time - day 15 in the challenge


Nap Time
8x6in oil on canvas panel  $125. SOLD


Day 15

This is my Grandcat. He is not longer
with us but left us with many happy memories.
This chair has a woven seat,
and sometimes, when he jumped up on the 
chair, his legs would go right through.
It was hysterical because he would
still nap with a couple of his legs hanging
through. After a while he learned to 
jump on the chest next to it, and 
carefully step down.

ARTIST NOTE
Half way through ...
Don't forget to take a look at all the 
other artists participating in the 
Leslie Saeta 30 in 30 Challenge

Artist Note

A dear friend's kitchen is where some
of the best Mexican food around
can be found.
I also could feast just on her chosen
palette of colors. Gorgeous!
I asked if I could paint a part of her room.
Received a yes...goody!

She shooed me out before I had finished yesterday
because she was preparing for company.
So back I went today...and as well as painting,
ate the best leftovers you could imagine.
As I said, a dear friend, who incidentally,
sweetly threaten death
if I mentioned her name on my blog.
