On the easel...Window Boxes

Window Boxes

This painting is still wet. I painted it on Saturday, and I thought it was finished. But after going to the studio today and looking at it, I need to hit it with some more paint. At 10:00 a.m. the temperature inside the studio was 80 degrees. Trying to paint when it is so hot and humid makes me cranky. So, I hung it up for the day. Hopefully the air conditioning will get fixed SOON. I hope that your day was cool and creative. Thanks for viewing my blog.

Window Boxes

Window Boxes is one of my daughter's favorite paintings...It is framed in a wide, simple silver frame, 16" x 20". I have not painted houses, architectural details and flower boxes in a while. The photo I took for the inspiration and reference on this painting is missing, and I can't remember exactly where this location is. I think somewhere in Michigan. I have plenty of new photos from New Orleans with lots of windows, doors, gates, shutters, flowers, and beads. Lots of Mardi Gras beads. Thanks for looking at this posting...I hope to get to the studio this afternoon and finish up more of those paintings that are half-started, --- or half-finished.
