This tiny group is all over the place in style, but they are reflections of my current mood towards the current time.

I am still working on the landscape, which is from a photo taken by Sharon, from My French Country Home.

  2. Susan,
    Thank you.
    I feel my work is still all over the place. I keep trying out different things, most that inspire me in other's work. For a while there, I wanted my work to have large areas of colors/values (like the work of Carol Maine), but I have discovered in the past year that I keep going to a larger varied in values. I am still learning that although, I appreciate certain techniques in other's, they may not be "right" for my work. Have a wonderful day. Carolina E.

  5. Hi Carolina
    The painting arrived safely and I love it, thank you so much! I posted about it today, but neither your picture nor mine do justice to your painting.

Labor of Love

Sunflowers in Cobalt Blue Vase,   Oil on 5 "x7"   Linen Panel SOLD  Private Collection in San Saba, TX First, I must say that everything I paint is because I absolutely love. I don't like to paint things that I don't find to be attractive to me for one reason or another. Sometimes it's sentimental reasons and other times it's as simple as beautiful colors or the texture. Either way, it's something that I want to capture and stare at for long periods of time. I want to study it and how it affects the environment around it, as in the case of Sunflowers in Cobalt Blue Vase does. In that respect, I feel ALL my paintings are a labor of love.  More often than not, I have to create a painting, wipe it all down, and start all over again if something is just not working. Some never get completed and I just end up painting something totally different on that panel. Then there are some, that I just have to paint, no matter how much trouble they are giving

A bit more Flow Blue (or Flo Blue)

Pink Roses in Flow Blue,   Oil on 6 "x6"   Linen Panel SOLD Private Collection in  Langhorne, PA  School is about to start again and it seems when it does the Holidays are close by and time goes faster. I decided this week I would "make" things go a little slower to get myself to relax. I get a lot of inspiration from so many other blogs, for my home and for my art. So, I went to several blogs that I've loved for so long, but really got to stay for a while. It was absolutely indulging--I wish I could do that more often.  There are times when I "have to" paint a certain item and I search and search as it nags at me until I find it. That was the case with the snap dragons below. I was thrilled to find them after most of June and July searching for them. I think they are perfect with the pink carnations. Although I am also working on a painting that is just the snap dragons. I did have to go a bit bigger than my usual paintings on this one in orde
