MA peppa-mints



These were a lot of fun! Lots of white.

Summer Shoes



My new summer shoes. It was fun to crop in close to these, makes the painting more abstract

I love the fishes cause they're so delicious!



This was another early painting, number 4. Looking back at these early ones I think I really do like that there is more than just the subject in the painting. It definitely adds more and makes the painting more interesting.

Garden Tool



This is a more recent painting. I exlored working on neutral backgrounds, I think that my white backgrounds were more successful than this brown color that ends up being in a few of them. I still like this painting, but I miss the colors!!!

breakfast



This was only the second Painting a day I ever did. I like this one a lot because it seems to have more of a setting. I have noticed that most of my paintings are becoming completely about the object in it, where this one includes the frying pan and gives you a way to picture where it might be.

This is another old painting, but I like the reflection i pulled off. I know i need to add my new paintings, this week is just killing me with everything I need to do, but I promise soon I will have new paintings up, maybe even tonight.

Robin's eggs 1



I love spring! I just wish we would have one already!

Andy's favorite cookies



I love this one! It was a lot of fun, I think I enjoy painting food the most. Luckily I did it while my boyfriend was at work. Otherwise he probably would have eaten my still life!

green sneaks



This was my first painting a day ever. It was done on March 18. I like this one especially since I can remember everything I thought about when I was painting it. I worried about so many different details and it took me longer than any of the others I've done since. Now I work hard not to do that. The best part about this project is that I am letting myself be more loose and I'm trying not to worry so much about the details. I think that it is really helping my painting style.

peeps!!



This painting I did a week or so before easter (once I get all of my paintings on here I'll figure out the dates). I had fun with this because I always enjoy doing paintings relevant to the time of year it is. I think it has some color issues, but I like it anyways!

Happy Birthday!!



This was my painting a day for April 9th, my birthday!! I have been wanting to try painting a cake or cupcake to see what it is like to paint frosting. I really enjoyed it, it let me be more free with my paint.
