Our granddaughter after a hard day of chalk painting with Mommy. Hayden is 2yrs 7months and an absolute delight.

I'm finally back to blogging. My daughter-in-law and I decided to take part in a neighborhood garage sale last week. It was held on the two hottest days of the year, so far. This was my first garage sale and it was exhausting. I'm still tired.

For this painting I decided to try a small circular composition of flowers from my garden. I like the movement and pattern created by overlapping the flowers and leaves.

KOREAN LILACS

These lilacs are growing along our front sidewalk. They grow quickly and have to be trimmed frequently as they grow over the walkway. This year they have more blooms than usual  and smell great. We are still having gray overcast skies and rain...all week! The garden is in bloom but not inviting for sitting outside and painting. Maybe next week.

OIL ON CANVAS

This is my entry for the Daily Paintworks Challenge this week. In this painting I have used a triad for the color scheme, red, blue and yellow. It seems to be a color scheme that I automatically gravitate to when I'm setting up a still life.

This painting is of a road in Germany. And no I did not take a trip without telling my friends. This is another challenge from Daily Paintworks. Two photos from Germany are available to paint and edit as we please. You can see the photos and some of the paintings by clicking on the link above.
