I have been making good progress cleaning out many pieces of old or infrequently worn or the wrong size clothing and donating them to Misericordia . Lots of home decor items, jewelry and books, tools and holiday items and I have also gone through drawers and thrown out years of pieces of paper with little notes or addresses now expired. It feels so good!
My shoulders are no better, but my doctors appointment is coming up in a couple of weeks, so I will know if I need to put my life on hold for a few months of post surgery healing.
Here are this weeks paintings..............................
Number 17, I really like these colors
Number 18, now this is different!
This was an oil painting. I didn't like it and decided it wouldn't bother me if I ruined it, so just started playing with the pastels. Not much detail here at all. After I finished, I sprayed it lightly twice with hairspray as an inexpensive fixative. It got kind of crinkly looking, but sort of cool!
I sent this to my sister for her birthday. She had asked me for a painting for the Fall/Halloween season because they have none. I sent her two others also of oil paintings of pumpkins and moons and cats. I hope she enjoys them this Halloween!
And lastly, I added the confetti strings and dashes and dots to this mask pastel I had done before. It just needed something!
Happy Paint Party Friday. Go to the party, all are invited!
