This is soooo good, Gwen! I am so impressed with your paintings of prints and then you've carried one step further with the reflections in the silver. Well done!
This absolutely rocks Gwen! I love it! And I admire your patience and skill with that reflection, that's one hell of a challenge. Brilliant, I'm very impressed.
Love the reflective quality of your bucket. About my mug collection - I've been collecting for 40 YEARS and have well over 60 different mugs from around the world. I'll send you a picture of them so you can drool. LOL
Love the shiny blue ribbon... and the whole composition is great. nice reflections. metal is so hard to achieve and you certainly nailed this beautifully.
This painting has such a refreshing feel to it. Love the tension between the dots, the shine on the plain colored ribbon and the pail. Very nice composition!
What a great still life set-up. The retro motif is not only fun, but the ellipses make the whole composition dance. The blue ribbon was a great way to tie everything together (no pun intended, honest).
Love your series of print fabric backgrounds! My career before kids was managing a fabric store and I collected alot of fabrics. Just this year I've painted a few floral backgrounds also. It's tricky. You make a believable background. And your silky ribbon is wonderful!
Love this. I have done several very small paintings utilizing ribbons in the composition - something about the sensuous curves and the way the light shines on some areas. I have more "ribbon" theme stuff in my head and maybe your painting has inspired me to get on with them!
Smart girl! The dotted fabric could've easily stole the viewer's attention away from the bucket but by having them reflected back onto the main subject that doesn't happen!

I am hoping that this Blog journal will allow me to see style progression. Who knows what the subject will be? Today animals, yesterday Still Life. I'm willing to go anywhere the Muse takes me. I hope you'll follow along with me!

You are really on to something with pattern. This is one of my favorite paintings.
Wow! Your fabric and reflections are amazing. You really captured it!

I just scrolled through your mug paintings and was struck by the lovely colors and patterns you chose. The reflections are beautiful.
You're in the EBSQ Friday Five!
Gwen!

Love the blues and browns working together!
Clever composition!
