Still Life Daily Painting, "Bunny Mug", 8x6", Oil

My "sister", LaVerne, brought me this cute little bunny mug, filled with chocolate eggs, several years ago.  The eggs are long gone, so I planted "Baby Toes" succulent in it.  He doesn't seem to mind.

I like to keep it on the work table in my studio.  That way, I am reminded of LaVerne every time I see it.

Have a great Monday :0)

WHITE CUP ON PINK, 6X8, OIL, SOLD

It's a rainy and dreary day today, just the kind of day you want to curl up with a soft blanket, a great novel, and a cup of hot chocolate.  I thought it would be the perfect day to post this coffee mug I painted a few weeks ago.

The purpose of the exercise was to paint an object with reflected color.

It was a fun exercise.

Now, time to find my blankey and book.

I am told that to successfully market your art, you must have a "body of work" to show. Makes sense to me, but, I could never find something that I wanted to paint over and over and over and over. I thought. Come to find out, when reviewing my paintings, I have done a predominance of still life compositions. So, I concluded, "I must be a still life painter!" Acting on that assumption, I have had a happy few weeks painting fruit. Or maybe it's just too cold to go outside and paint. Anyway this is the latest one. I wonder how long it will take me to get tired of this! Probably not too long, as I am attending a Gay Faulkenberry workshop this weekend. Enjoy!

STACK O' MUGS

Now that my blog is back in one piece, I was able to finish this little painting. There is a reason that artists and computers don't mix well and I became very aware of them this weekend. Every time I came near the computer it would wipe something else off my blog. If it wasn't for the good graces of my husband, I wouldn't have a blog left at all. The only problem I have now (computer-wise) is that FEEDJIT decided that I live in Charlotte, NC for some reason. I'm still trying to convince them that I'm still here in Florida. I fear for the world which now operates totally on computers, and nobody really understands why or how things happen. Didn't anyone but me see 2001, A Space Odyssey? Does the name HAL mean anything to you?

Anyway, here is my little painting, I hope you like it. Oh, my the way, for all you people lined up to buy my paintings (ha ha, just kidding) just click on the Etsy ad on the sidebar. No more Paypal buttons.
