On my easel

I have three works that I hope to finish by mid month. The first is the still life with the silver pitcher, a silver bowl of green grapes, red grapes, an orange, and a plate from my mother’s collection. I really liked the design on the plate and the two cut out areas, as well as the blue and orange color combination.

The forest scene is from one of my photographs from my trip to Alaska with my daughter. I liked the roots in the path. They were are reminder of the important roots holding those tall trees in place. Lots of detail work ahead to finish this piece.

It was spring and spring time is iris time. They are in a favorite vase of mine. Lots of work ahead for the decorative lines on the iris.
