Plane Green Tea

Plane Green Tea 6 x 6  oil on board

We've been on a green tea binge over the holidays. My

husband visited a tea shop in Hong Kong and 

spent a bunch of Hong Kong dollars

on this 'special' brew. 

It's supposed to be the answer to all that

ails you , short of making you immortal-

that's what 'they' said anyway...

This is an appropriate post for me since I'll be

'leaving on a jet plane'

very early in the morning for a visit stateside.

I haven't posted remotely before but I have

so many great trips planned this year I

hope I can figure it out!

Cups and Shadows

 

Cups and Shadows 6x6 oil on board

 

This painting was all about the shapes and shadows.

When I'm painting I try to forget what it is that I'm painting.

I try to not think about it as a tree, or a person,

or as a still life.  I feel I do a better

job if I simply look at the

shapes and values in front of me.

Somehow it turns out to be more interesting that way.

Tea Jubilee

Tea Jubilee 16 x 20 oil on canvas

In addition to the small daily studies I like to keep a larger

painting going as well.  It gives me more space to try to

apply the paint in different ways and

design the light/dark patterns.

This was so much fun for me to paint just by picking the

colors that make my heart sing.

Purple Polka-dot Pot

Purple Polka-dot Pot  6 x 6 oil on board

 

I was searching for striped fabric when I ran across this

polka-dot piece that I had to have. I went

a little crazy with the stripes and dots but

enjoyed every minute of it. Since there

was a lot of action in the light areas I tried to keep all

the darks very simple.

 

This might sound silly but it reminds me of a heavy little

tug boat chugging up stream through a

sea of fabric.

 

I grew up on the water watching the tugboats work

and always thought they were amazing.
