Friends

One of those days that I knew it would be interesting to see a
beginning.
The canvas already had the background color.
Sure enough, it was meant to be covered.

I have been on a bit of a painting strike. We just didn't want to paint.
It was a good feeling.
To paint.
And to get a bit of paper napkin therapy.
Today.
Sharon

    Reading this post was like watching a miracle happen...the way that canvas turned from that red color to a wonderful portrait of friends with no red...wow. When I come to your blog...I really do EXPECT and am never disappointed. Pat

    I love this piece Sharon! I am having a bit of painting withdrawal and I think a little paper napkin therapy is in order.

    Lovely - and thankyou so much for showing the stages of your painting. I must try incorporating napkins into a painting (I'm not a painter) - this week I've been making napkin eggs.

    How do you know when to stop? It is so lovely at every step. Which part is the paper napkin? The butterfly, the flowers or both? So interesting to see this come together!

    How wonderful to see your work go from beginning to end. Apparentlya break was what you needed - your work is beautiful- so soft and inviting.

    This is GORGEOUS! Thank you for sharing the stages of your work. Sometimes the finished product looks so intimidating. Seeing it in "Baby Steps", is inspiring.
