Mostly Acrylics this Week

The Saturday mixed media class taught by Jo is doing
joint acrylic paintings on wood panels. This has
been around the room a couple of times and has
arrived back to me. We will still be working on
these when we meet on Saturday.




I painted two small canvases which I thought would go
above my sofa flanking the large painting. However,
I like the little ones on my mantle so they may never
see the other wall.

The jardiniere was hand painted by an ancestor in 1898.

And lastly, a little sketch I did a while back.

Visit Paint Party Friday to see some really great art.

  6. Congrats on having one of your beautiful watercolors showcased this week. And I love your acrylics. Nice to see them hanging and put out instead of stacked in closet, or behind a door like some of mine. Happy weekend. Hugs-Erika

  8. Your paintings look perfect on the mantle, especially flanking that beautiful jardiniere. That truly is precious being hand painted by an ancestor way back in 1898. I'd be petrified to dust it!
    Enjoy your weekend. Happy PPF to you

  11. How wonderful to see your paintings in situ. ..I adore those colours. They are larger than I thought and the scale sets them off beautifully.

  14. Hi Faye! Congrats on being spotlighted this week! What an honor and a beautiful flower too. I can envision you and Valerie-Jael teaming up for amazing creativity and fun.

    I love the mixed media pieces you made and they look fantastic on the shelf. My opinion (oops were you asking, lol) is the shelf for the home. They look like they were purposely made to go in that spot.

    Happy PPF and have a Wonderful Week. Hugs, Rasz

  24. Your two acrylics paintings are marvellous, and still painted with the delicacy of touch you use on your watercolours. They look great on the mantle.
    Your girl "sketch" is lovely too, love her stockings and hairstyle.

  28. The paintings you did for your home are lovely. I also love that hand painted jardiniere done by one of your ancestors. Thanks for your visit on the 15th, and sorry for my late visit, but I was out of town. Blessings!
