This painting started out a little bit differently. It
was a dress. I don't know what possessed me to
take on a dress (with an invisible zipper...and lining)
after nearly 30 years of not sewing. It was a disaster!
But I did need some fabric to go with this bright red cup,
so not all was a loss.

Excellent work! This is very very beautiful!!!
You have outdone yourself with this one, Gwen!The mug looks so real..
And the table cloth is done superbly.
Beautiful, Gwen! Your cherries have that rich, deep red color and the reflections on your cup are perfect! Your fabric is lovely here, although it would have made a beautiful dress, too. :-)
I hope this means your back painting again! It's fabulous!!
Good to have you back and I hope that this rime you will not go away too long.
What a beautiful come back.
Please keep painting your work is gorgeous.
XOXO
So happy to see a Gwen painting! This piece is terrific. I love that it is a dress too. I love all the reds. Just perfect!
I was drawn to this fabric right away. Maybe that's why you wanted a dress out of it? Cool painting.
Wow, Gwen I almost wanted to reach into the computer and grab myself a treat.
This one is the best of the best!!!
Can't take my eyes off.
I love stories like that, when you started out with a plan and then completely changed direction! It turned out so beautifully! Your compositions are always so unique and creative! And your painting style is so admirable! Wow!
Duh, I thought you meant you started out painting a dress! I got it, I got it now. Yes, so beautiful. Your work is awesome and I always like the angle that you paint from. It's so interesting and so you!
Your orange mug looks so real... I can 'feel' the shinny surface!

Beautifully painted. I am dazzled by the complicated fabric and those reflections- wow:) I love the way you painted the milk- looks just like cold hint of blue milk! Cherries are a favorite of mine and these are so well done. Yay for you and happy to see:)
Stunning, snappy and beautiful Gwen!
No, I'd say that's a pretty brilliant rescue of a failed sewing project! Your painting is exquisite, Gwen.
Love the painting Gwen. I know so many people who want to sew suddenly now. And imagine this beautiful dress in a sea of grey, purple and military olive green this year. Glad you used the fabric for such a great result.

This is so striking, I really love your style. Glad the dress could come into use. LOL
Stunning Gwen, the color combinations are exquisite!
Gwen...astonishing. I love how this is so you and the way the milk is..just fab!
This is a knock out, Gwen. Love everything about it.
This is absolutely gorgeous!!!!!!
I love this even though I hate milk! You got the blue shadow color in the milk just perfect . The bright red cup with deep red cherries on the colorful dress fabric are gorgeous together!
As always your work is awsome. Irene :-)
Gwen, this is great! That mug is a thing of beauty. Your fabric and cherries are painted lovingly - can taste those 2-tone cherries. And I must say, awesome reflection in the mug : )
this took my breath gwen!! it's beyond beautiful! who cares about the dress if this is the result!! absolutely amazing!
You really amaze me.
LOL! The paintings is awesome! I like sewing, but I usually have to have a couple of disasters, then I have something great that jumps out of the machine! I've got a couple projects started right now!!
Love this painting, Gwen. I just got back from Bar Harbor, Maine so I'm trying to catch up with all my blogger friends! Love the reflections on this beautiful cup! Actually, my eyes go all over...I don't know what to look at first. Just beautiful!!

Oh my this is wonderful! I thought it was your reference photo and then realized it was actually a painting. Just perfect!
stunning work Gwen! you have the light down to a T !
Beautiful. Great reflections. So glad to see you back!
OK...I just got goosebumps! This is an incredible painting, Gwen. I think the way you painted that translucent edge of the milk as it meets the inner curve of the cup is GENIUS.
I love love love it!!!
The milk and the depth in the glaze of the cup are brilliant.
I love this one!! The patterned fabrics that you work with are lovely and they are working really well!
Gorgeous painting, Gwen. I especially love the handling of the tablecloth and color harmony.
A wonderful painting and a really beautiful blog !
Love this! The colours are wonderful! :)
still rocking it I see.... i really like all 3 of these new ones, esp those cherries and the milk in that cup. It so well done that i think i can actually discern how much milk fat is in there:) I sent u an email with new website btw .
