90- Holly Hocks

The last little one of the day is a sweet little painting of Holly Hocks. One of my favorite flowers. And one of the reasons I almost didnt marry my husband last summer. (He doesnt like them. I came home frome taking care of some elderly people to him "helping me" by "weeding" my flower bed and in the process he removed all my Holly Hocks. I seriously concidered not marring him.)

89 - MORNING GLORY CLOSEUP

This one is bit more abstract than I normally paint, but one of the great things about ATCs are the ability (without guilt for me) to play with something new.... I like that. And I love this little one.

88 - THREE SUNFLOWERS IN GLASS

Yet another for the trade.

87 - PINK ZINNIA

The next of the trading ATCs. Zinnia have small yellow flowers in the center of the rest of the flower. It was quite difficult to allow my mind to accept this. I know sound weird, but when something is different than I expect them to be, I have a hard time painting it.

86- BACK PORCH ATC

This morning I'm getting several more ATCs ready to mail for the FLOWER project in wetcanvas. This first one is BACK PORCH. It was a quick project and I like how it turned out.

85 - About to Blow

Another ATC, Oil on canvas paper, for the wetcanvas swap.

Already more than last year

I just noticed that I've already (March) finished more paintings this year than I did the entire year last year. I know I feel I've gotten to paint more. And that always makes me happy.
