Violet Serenade

Violet or shades of purple have become one of
my favorite colors.  This piece is Colored Pencil done
on a Pastel Board.  I like the pastel board as I can
add many layers to the piece. The background is
accomplished with Pan Pastels in an abstract design.

"Red Clay Pot" 6 x 6 Original Oils
The pot was a gift from my husband
and as always it was calling to me to
paint and I could not resist.

stretch my self by painting things I am not usually

accustomed to painting and getting out of my

comfort zone. 8 x 10 Original oil on panel.
