Framing Options at top of this page

This is what you paint when you have not decided what to paint at the end of the day.  I had just studied using Dreama's transparent oils and was attracted to anything white that I could put Indian Yellow under as the base for the block-in.  So even though I have the apple, broken spoon and the cookie in the painting, they only have bit parts and the cup is the star. This is my entry to Paint Party Friday.  Be sure to stop over to see all the other artist's work. Happy PPF!

The Daily Paintworks Challenge for the week of January 8- 14 is to paint a picture of your breakfast.  Well, this was not my breakfast because I couldn't cook in the studio!  I actually had 2 slices of bacon, two fried eggs, and a healthy juiced fruit and vegetable combo that was made from 1 beet, 1 carrot, 1 apple, 1 orange and a one inch square of fresh ginger.  Oh, not to forget the large cup of Colombian coffee  "straight"!
I painted this over a previously used canvas.  I have photos of the canvas and my value study below.

I haven't posted for a week because my children celebrated Christmas with me on the 7th. of January.  I was busy last week with some extra shopping and wrapping, and preparing or picking up food for the weekend.  So the ham in this picture is part of a Honeybaked ham we had.  I still have too much leftover, even though they each took some home.  Ham anybody?!

 I am proud to say that I had four paintings accepted into the Randy Higbee 6 Inch Squared National Juried show in Costa Mesa, Ca.

I tried something a little different here.  As I sat watching television, I drew on my canvas different things I like or enjoy.  A heart, fish(in a pond!), a cup of coffee, the telephone,my green tile kitchen counter,trees with the leaves drawn in house shapes, a rose, the wind, a rainbow and the star with various triangle and circles.  As I drew each one, I turned the canvas 1/4 of the way around to the right.  I hope you enjoy some of these things, too.  This can be hung either vertically or horizontally.  See below.  This is in the black frame,against my natural oak floor.  The colors in this bottom pix don't seem as accurate, I think I took this picture in a different place and at a different time of day.

"Baby Silver"

           

6"H X 6"W   Oil on Raymar Canvas Panel   $65.00 unframed plus S&H

My mother received this sterling silver baby cup in the 1940's with my name engraved on it.  At the time these little cups or silver spoons were baby shower gifts. 

It has been sitting in a closet for years, and I wonder if it was ever really used.  You certainly couldn't put juice in it, and I can picture a baby biting on the metal.

"Bee Tea"

6"H x 6"W  Oil on Raymar canvas panel   

$95.00  Framed in plain black wooden frame.

A friend gave me this little tea cup.  It looks like a colorful flower with a bee sitting on the leaf(handle) of the plant.  I love things with a bee motif.  What we do without their very bizzzy work!?      To Purchase email me at gloria@gloriajzucaro.com
