Some Favorite Things

This is what I have been working on yesterday and today. I just completed it and hope you enjoy it.

It's always fun painting things you love which for me that includes Pansies and baskets.

Our Camellias have already begun to bloom so I will probably be starting to paint them soon.

No sooner did I say "paint outdoors"than the rain came in buckets to keep me in the studio.  I was happy to have some unplanted Pansies on the porch like this one which begged to come inside and model for me.

I purchased three sizes of these baskets to help better organize my studio. I am putting them to good use but just had to empty this one out again because I love painting it.

Pansies are planted here in October and bloom all winter. They keel over when the first hot weather arrives around April.

Thank you for following my blog. I welcome questions and comments always.
