Day 24 - 30 Painting's in 30 Day's Challenge

How can you go into Trader Joe's and not buy flowers?

You can't.  It's not a joke.  The temptation is real!   haha

Anyway, here they are. Still needs some background work. 

The most difficult part still are painting the dang leaves and stems! 

The coffee pot I've painted before.

 It's from my husband when he was on board the Aircraft Carrier, 

USS Ranger CV-61, or as he say's  CV -by God 61 !! 

After it's final cruise before decommisioning, the Officer's got to take a piece of it's history and he chose this coffee pot from the Ward room.  It's probably about 60 yrs old.  I just love all the patina on it!!  

Day 19 - Pink Tulips

the set up - Live Tulips!!

Day 19 - 30 Painting's in 30 Day's -  This should count as Day's 17 & 18 because I was actually working on it then!

When I started this one I had some sunlight shining on the flowers then of course the sun moved and it kept changing...I know better but was too lazy to get out a ladder and block it out.  By the next day the open flower had of course changed again!  Made some adjustments and here ya go!!

Do it for the process right?

Edit: This painting has been STOLEN.
It has been reported to authorties and if ever found please contact me.
