After buying my lovely goodies yesterday, I finally got to work on a painting which I've had in mind for ages, I've painted my stacked white cups on linen - they're framed in a simple distressed soft white coloured frame - I've made a photo collage BELOW for you to look at - I'm not sure if I might give the cups a slight colour of some sort around the rims - will sleep on that one - or if you had ideas please let me know.
I did do a similar version on hessian and painted the rims of the cups red - blue - alternatively - not sure if I want anything as harsh in this painting though
I haven't at all been neglecting my Rosy paintings, in fact the one below will be ready very soon, the weather here has turned very cold and seems to get dark way too quickly, I need to re-organise my working day that's for sure!
OK ~ here's another photo of Tony and I on our "Special Day". I think this photo would have been taken around about 26 plus years ago!!! - YAKES!!!

Hi Gail love the white cups. Maybe something in the beiges like a small fleur de lys.
Great photo of you and Tony.

Hey you...
DONT touch those cups!! I love the white with the beige background... very elegant .... yet simplistic in its entirety.... very French... tres chic.... oooo la la!!! tee hee
Seriously ... they are quite lovely the way they are and to put color in would take away from the message of the painting...
The rose painting is beautiful ... I dont think I have ever seen you do anything that isnt....
Cute photo of you and Tony... what a little doll you are
LOTS OF HUGS

That painting of yours is quite beautiful!
Hi Gail,
Surely you don't really mean throwing your paint brushes away!
I looovvve your new paintings.
Ah, twenty six years of pure happiness. That's wonderful.
Hugs, Anna
How gorgeous is that photo of you and your husband? 26 years is amazing :)
Hi Gail don't you dare throw your brushes away. What are you thinking!!! You still have plenty of talent left in you as you know I love your paintings I have a few around my house. Will send a photo of that new one's home when my hubby gets around to hanging it. Have a great weekend. Carol
Am loving those wedding photos, you both look so sweet!! I had a bit of a brainwave with the cups (which i do love white also). How about the lucky buyer gets to have some monograms of their choice on the cups. I reckon they would look great in a soft grey or washed out red, or even blue for that matter.

an incredible day, I painted a picture with lavender of my garden in the basquet of my mom, and is very similar to your painting,we made inadvertently, we have artistic connection, I find it incredible. by the way your painting is better than mine!!!!of course!!!
