It’s Wednesday and time for another 1 $ deal! On Wednesday’s during the summer I try to post an older painting that has been hanging around my house. This is painting number 34.

We just returned from our annual family vacation in Colorado. I had a great time seeing my brother and sister; nieces and nephews; and mom and dad. Can't wait for next year! Now it's time to unpack and get paintings ready to ship...Thank you!

"Limes Inside", ©2010

SOLD

I thought I would stay with the "lime" theme for this weeks One Dollar Wednesday. See my original post here.

It might be fun to repaint these still life pieces and see what I come up with today.

SOLD

I'm just finally learning to like strawberries.

This is the last of the instant milk paintings for a while. It turns into a nice yogurt-ish consistency when it sits out for a few days. :)

Just in case you were wondering, I have been using instant milk for these paintings.

Mid-Century Milk

No. 240, 6"x6", oil on gessoboard

Last fall I found this glass at the thrift store. I couldn't believe my luck! It's so mid-century modern and I am crazy about that stuff at the moment. I finally got the courage to paint it. I think I'll give it another try tomorrow.

PLEASE NOTE: I'm trying to get better at taking pictures of my paintings instead of scanning them. This way I can post them the day I paint them...which is really nice. What I was thinking is much fresher in my mind. I think the colors are mostly correct. We can compare in a few days when it dries and I can scan it in.

Here are some fun Mid-Century Modern links:

• 15 Mid-Century Modern Dream Homes that will Kill Your Children
• The Mid-Century Modernist
• Google Images

Enjoy!

My scanned image is MUCH, MUCH more representative of what this painting looks like! I'll have to keep experimenting with photographing my paintings.
