Because I had lots of favourable comments about my last flower painting, I was encouraged today to try another stab at a flower painting. I like this result! I actually used a painting that I did in a workshop from a couple years ago as my model. Two years ago almost to the day I went to Pasadena, CA and took a workshop from Dreama Tolle Perry and Leslie Saeta. It was wonderful and you can read all about it here!
These two ladies have inspired me for many years now. They are fabulous artists and wonderful people to boot! I actually WON the workshop during the Artists Helping Artists show Leslie hosts on BlogTalk Radio.

Why do I have all this stuff in my garage (ignore the recycle bins and garbage cans...those are "normal"). I have a wheeled walker, raised toilet seats, bath chairs and crutches!! I picked them up today from the Red Cross in town. I am going in for bunion surgery (unless it gets bumped - something that can happen) this Thursday... YIKES! I have to stay off my left foot for TWO WEEKS! No driving ANYWHERE and NO WEIGHT on the foot for that time! I will be hobbling around.
So I may not complete the 30 Paintings in 30 Days...I have missed a week already due to homework and studying, kids stuff and just getting things organized fro two weeks of being on my behind!!
I'll try to post a couple more paintings before Thursday, but after that...not sure....I may try to paint on my lap...maybe some water colours...but I have to live downstairs for the first little while and need to keep my foot UP ABOVE MY HEART for Two weeks...and I paint standing up LOL...I guess I will practice my drawing, see if I can manage to paint on my lap, read, watch shows, study and surf the web!
Wish me luck!
