For me, painting isn’t an immediate accomplishment that goes by rapidly. I have spent a month painting on a painting so the only thing that I can hope for is progress. Here’s what that looks like.

I love pastel paintings and I love painting pastels. And can you believe there is a color that I do not have and that I need. Crazy crazy.

The beginnings of two paintings. Cake & icing with a cherry. First layer in. 6 x 8. Second, a new holiday painting, 4 x 4. Needs a lot of work but the idea is in. Both are oils.

Sometimes the paintings that I create when I’m just doodling turn out to be wonderful. Sometimes not. This is 5 x 7 watercolor. I’m not in love with it. Let me know what you think.

More good progress made today on this painting. Finally getting somewhere and I’m enjoying working from the top down. Skies are a favorite of mine to paint! 😊

A sunset in the right place at the right time can create glorious colors! I want to be there. I might have to settle for painting it. 🤣
