"Cone Flowere Garden" Watercolor

More pickles, these are way to much fun to paint.

No new painting to post because I am working on three different pickle paintings that will be finished this week in my watercolor painting class, so I though I would post an old favorite that I did now hanging in a friends home. "Emily" is the tractor I passed year after year at a farm down the street. About a year ago I saw a truck hauling her away and it made me sad to think what was to come of that farm. Sure enough, there are now 4 houses there with more to come. I sure to miss seeing that old girl and the beautiful pasture that once was.

WOW am I crazy about painting pickles right now. This is what we started in class today so that means I am working on my second pickle painting and I will end up with 2 more which I intend on making each one just a little different than the last. What fun, the pieces started in class today were looking really really good.

Another painting of bananas, so challanging to paint and to not look overworked, I dont know why. Anyway they seemed to get better each time and easier too. This was the painting for the first week of my spring time classes, they all came out quite nice. How nice it is to be painting with all of my friends again.

Working on watercolors of all kinds of fruit this week.
