Romantic Dinner for Two...

 

  

"Romantic Dinner for Two," 9"x 12",

oil on stretched canvas, (available on etsy)

I'm hoping the sun will at least peek out at some stage tomorrow so I can re-photograph this piece as we are currently in the middle of a snowstorm here in Michigan and I wasn't able to get a good photo. The chairs are more lavender in color, and a bit darker than what appears, the hydrangea is a light blue, and the tablecloth has shades of grey and cream. Paintings always look better in real life! :)

Tea on the Patio, Still Life Painting in Oil

Tea on the Patio, 8"x10", oil on stretched canvas

(SOLD,thank you!!)

This is a piece I have been working on the past few days...it was actually taken from a photo I snapped of someone's porch chairs, I suppose I could have created a porch painting, but with it being summer I thought a patio was much more fitting.

I replaced the photo today as I realized last night I forgot to add the stems in the hydrangea floral, and I added a bit to the potted flowers...the blue still does not seem to show its true color, it is more of a cobalt on the teacups and periwinkle on the flowers in the foreground, the pink on the flowers is a richer shade of pink...the painting is much more vibrant in person....Paintings always look better in person, I promise! :o)
