red white and blue 4"x6" oil
I haven't had much of a chance to paint in a few days. My kids were sick and then i caught the cold. I like to stack things up partly for the challenge to get proportion right but also because it reminds me of the antique stores i used to wander through as a kid. I lived in Iowa in a little town with lots of antique stores. Sometimes after school i would go to the antique store down the strret and look at all of the items overflowing on the shelves. Now i go through antique stores and second hand shops to find still life items. I won't be able to paint for a little while. I have company and the guest room is also my studio. I am taking a break.
