Took this picture at breakfast the other day and had fun creating the two paintings. I don't know if I should paint in the "half and half" writing on the lid of the creamer, what do you think?

  1. Sheila-
    I love all of the colors blending in the top painting! I also like the composition in the bottom painting, with the napkin and knife. My advice re: the words on the half-and-half is to use "art writing." It suggests words but isn't legible. What size are they? Sorry you weren't at the SCVWS party yesterday. I miss seeing you! I'm off to Seattle for a week but hope we can get togther to paint-just like old times-after I return.

  2. Thank You Janice, Miss You! I think it would look better with the art writing too. See you when you get back girlie!

  5. hello Sheila, I like the first painting more than the second, the colouring speeks to me and yes I think that some writing on the milk pot would be better too, but not so it draws the eye away from the cup of coffee.

    Hope this helps... have a good day :)
