I'm sitting here drinking my coffee and so thankful that I am in a nice warm, cozy place - very thankful indeed. I think winter is a beautiful season but the older I get the less I like the cold temp's.. A month of winter would probably be sufficient for me. The sun is shining and I think we are to have a bit of a heat wave this weekend - mid 30's. Anyway, I decided to put a cheerful little painting up today. It is a 5" x 7" oil painting of one of my favorite cups and saucers filled with mini roses. It is looking for a good home.

What a beautiful setting & I love the two kids (brother & sister) hanging out together in the sun - reminds me of my two when they were young.
ReplyDeleteThanks Rachel. It makes me think of when my siblings and I were young(er). I still love to sit in spots where the sun is streaming in -such simple pleasures. As you probably know, I enjoy figurative art, especially painting children. I love not only the mood of the piece but I think the lights and shadows of the architecture create an interesting composition. I think the simple, daily acts of life are beautiful. Thanks for visiting. Helen
