I am having a 1000th post celebration sale that will last until Friday, October 17th.

All 6x6" paintings will be half price until then.

E-mail me, fterry@nc.rr.com and let me know and I will change the paypal button price for you

on any unsold painting from 2014.

Today is my 1000th post on this blog! I am happy to say that I have really enjoyed the habit of painting daily. I send out a huge Thank You to Carol Marine who got me started with Daily Paintings when I took her workshop in February, 2011.  I have learned so much from doing these small paintings and plan to keep it going for a long time. The main emphasis for me is on honing my skills as an artist, so  every one I paint teaches me something.

My 2015 desk calendars are now available while supplies last.  Each

month displays a different painting from the past year.  Below you can

see each month's art selection.  The calendars measure 4" x 8" and are

self standing.  Perhaps a stocking stuffer, hostess gift, or gift for a favorite 

friend or teacher?

I never tire of painting this beautiful vine. I love all that is blooming right now and the sun is shining. Yay!

Love Bug

The Love Bug

This is great to have around--what else could 

spread such happiness?  It makes you laugh, it's cheerful, waits 

patiently, never gets angry, and never shows you

anything but a smile!

Forsythia In Delft

Forsythia In Delft

One day they are bare branches

and the next day you see them loaded with

cheery yellow flowers.  This happens in late

February in North Carolina and it

never fails to catch me by surprise.

8 x 8 " Oil

Sainte Crepin, France

Saint Crepin

We had a nice picnic in this village

last September and a very nice man from the 

neighborhood brought us several bottles of wine

to have with our lunch.  He liked the fact

that we were painting there.

It seems Bentley the cat has been

spending a lot of time with me in my studio.

The dogs are both very jealous so I

came up with this little bowl full of treats to 

appease them.

Spool Buddies

Spool Buddies
I have a strong connection with thread.
 It reminds me of all the sewing I used to do.
I'd pick up a Vogue pattern, some great fabric, and
I made everything I wore.  I even made some
clothes for my little ones.
My sewing machine retired a long time ago!

The Last Of The Almonds

The Last Of The Almonds

6 x 6 in. oil

I love to eat almonds-they get me through

the day and keep me from getting too

hungry while I am working.  Now I

need to re-stock because these

were eaten after the painting was finished.

Pansy In A Jar

We plant hundreds of Pansies

every October and they bloom all

winter with an occasional slow down

if we get snow and ice.

 OOps--On second thought, it wasn't "we" this 

year because my husband did it all.

Blue Cup With Apple

Blue Cup With Apple

6x6" oil

This cup was made by a potter in

Provence and has a lovely feel

to it.  Looks especially nice holding summer

blossoms so you will probably see it again.

Good News:  We have our first grandbaby, Brynlee

Rae, born on 2-25-11.  She is an angel.
