Day 30 — A Lovely Color But ... Not Edible

Day 19 — A Talent of Yours

Painting! I love to paint! You can see the slideshow of my paintings over the years at the end of all the posts on this page. I work with water-colours and pastels.

Day 17 — An Art Piece

California-born artist Loran Speck draws the inspiration for his still-life paintings from the realist artists of the Renaissance such as Caravaggio, Rembrandt and Rubens. I particularly like this work of his.

The Work Of Art

The brush flew over the pale canvass lazily. The tint darkened with each stroke. The babyish glow turned to a faint blush, delicate and flattering against the pallor. The artist kept on working to get the desired shade. The brush swept and rose, swept and rose for the last time; perfection reached. She looked it into the mirror and smiled at her work of art.
