For Mother's Day





I have been busy painting these ity bitty paintings as a gift for my Mother-in-Law. They are so small and I haven't painted this small that I can think of. They range in size from 1 5/8 inch, 2 X 1/2 inch to 3X 2 1/2 inch. Whew! So I will paint tonight and get something new on for tomorrow. This project just took time.

Tiny little paintings for mom-in-law how nice. I'm wondering how they will be displayed? On easels in tiny frames, hung side by side? You are ambitious and ahead of schdule i'd say. Good for you .

How delightful, Linda! The texture of the canvas on the photos gives me an idea of how tiny these are! I supposed you used a macro lens!

She should be so pleased! The colors in these are gorgeous! I especially like the roses. Don't know how you did that so small!

Thank you all for wonderful comments! They are so small, but, I actually enjoyed every minute. You couldn't get too absorbed in detail because of the size which was a good thing!!

VANITY SOLD

I LOVE 'girl' things like lipstick, perfume, nail polish bottles, and pretty little compact cases. In this painting I was working for limited strokes. I would lay down the paint and leave it without manipulating it in any way. 6X6 inches oil Raymar canvas panel (Archival)

LITTLE ORANGE TEAPOT SOLD

Red Orange is another of my favorite colors. When I saw this great tea pot in one of the stores in town I wanted it right away. But, I thought and thought about it and when I went back to the store it was still there and I decided that it was mine! I am not a tea drinker but I have always loved the shapes and sizes and variety of design of teapots. In this painting I backlit the teapot with natural and studio lighting. I was experimenting with the changing values and shadow. 8X8 inches oil Raymar Canvas Panel (Archival)
