Bamboo and Bouquet
Merry Little Christmas
From a free photo on Pixabay by Croisy, this elegant duo helps me wish you a very Merry Christmas!
Sunflowers and Roses
This bouquet served as a table centerpiece last spring, and I finally decided to render my photo of it in paint.
Girly Shoes
What little girl would not want to skip around in in pink tennies with hearts on them? Upon posting, I see that I have not yet finished off the eyelets nor signed in the lower left…back to the easel.
Soup
Mmmmmm…savory.
For the Ages
Enticed by a beautiful free photo on Pixabay, I decided to render it in paint. From an art point of view, I think line designs add so much interest.
Miniature Tulips
Every now and then I am drawn to paint a still life. Unusual muted hues and arrangement are what entice. The peaceful beauty of mauves, grays, and aquas in the free photo I used could not be resisted.
All My Heart
Weather has been sub-zero lately, making me want to snuggle with a cushy little bear. Oh, and they always love you back.
Criss-Crossed
Have you seen these flowers in bouquets? They are great fillers if not used alone. They’re name is as playful as their look: Billy Balls.
Decked Out
Even before Halloween this year, I noticed some commercial “decking of the halls” around town. Traditionally, we Sisters of Notre Dame try to put in a somewhat solemn Advent preparation before we pull out all the stops for wondrous Christmas Day. However, joyful anticipation undoubtedly fuels celebration.
