Gloria J Zucaro's "Laurole 1, 2, 3", 4"

On Laura Harms site "I am the Diva" she asked us to do a tangle using her new Zentangle pattern, and come up with a name for it.  Because of the circles and her first name, I decided on "Laurole".  Here is the finished version, then the steps going back to my design's beginning step.  I am posting to iamthedivaczt.com and to Paint Party Friday.  Have a great weekend.

Gloria J Zucaro's "Take-Off on Seuss"

Tonight I am posting some ATC's I made for next weekends meeting at The Barrington Ice House Gallery for the Barrington Cultural Arts Center.  We meet the second Saturday of each month to make and trade Artist Trading Cards.  This months' theme is Dr. Seuss.  Of  course we can't really copy his work, but can do our version.  I am joining the party with Kristin and Eva over at Paint Party Friday again, and can't wait to see what the other party goers are up to this week.

Yikes!  An attack frog!

Happy Paint Party Friday!

For some reason on days when I don't have anything in particular in mind to paint, pears and apples come to mind.  Is that like com"pear"ing apples and oranges?!  I decided on some nice plump pears.  And to give them extra humph, I decided they are French pears, la-di-da! 

This painting is entered in the Artist's Playroom with the theme of "rainbow", hosted by Jennifer Mclean at  http://www.justaddwatersilly.com/search/label/APR

Questions?

The Daily Paintworks assignment this week is to "Paint Your Donut".  So, of course, one was not enough since I would be painting at the Mainstreet Studio with my friends.  I ran(not literally!) to Jewel and picked some donuts from the bakery department thinking I would maybe just paint the green decorated Long John in honor of Saint Patrick's Day.  I had brought a red plate and a green plate with me, figuring that most donuts have a reddish tone to them.  When I started my set-up I thought I liked it better with a variety instead of just one donut.  I finished the painting by lunchtime, so these were our dessert.  Yum!
