Cherry-o's

Forever ago I bought some fabric paint called Neopaque, and have just started to experiment with it. It's great stuff. Way better than just plain old acrylic paint (duh). You iron it afterwards which gets out all the kinks from the wet paint. I painted these little circle-dots yesterday and today found cherries were back in again! Yay!

Reaching Right

One great thing about sunflowers - they are unwavering. I've had these guys for about a week and they are still going strong. For this reason they are probably my favorite still life flower.

Don't Spill Your Milk

I just couldn't help painting this cup again. See, I had this vision when I bought it. I was going to paint this cup with milk in it and it was going to be "awesome." I guess there was so much anticipation, doing it once just wasn't enough. So here it is again.

Letting Go

I found this cute vase on a recent trip to Portland. I still can't believe I live 2 hours from Portland, OR. Not that I'd rather live there, but it is pretty cool to visit.

Vintage Milk

This is my example painting for this week's Daily Paintworks Challenge - The Polka-Dot Challenge! This is my favorite recent find on Ebay. Doesn't it remind you of the requisite glass of milk we all drank as kids with dinner?

NEW ARTBYTE: I just put out a new online lesson. This one's on proportion. It is called "Getting Proportions Right" and if you're interested you'll find it in the DPW ArtByte Store.
