It's 1 $ Wednesday time. I found this little mitten painting and thought it would be appropriate since...there's a lot of snow! Lot's of it! I really didn't think we would get any snow this year, but now we have some nice, fluffy, white snow!<br />
<br />

Another 1 $ Wednesday...posting on Thursday! (Sorry for the confusion.)<br />
<br />
One Dollar Wednesday is when I go through my painting archives and find what I think is a gem and is a couple of years old. Instead of it sitting around my studio, I offer it up on eBay starting at 1 $.<br />
<br />
It feels like yesterday when I painted this, but it's hard to believe it's been 2 years! What?!<br />
<br />
This is a cute little (4" x 4") cup and saucer painting. It would look cute in a dining room, sitting room, coffee house, or kitchen. Maybe propped up on a shelf or sitting on a little easel.<br />
<br />
Happy Bidding!Heather B.http://www.blogger.com/profile/07808725301328841174noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8474193641536004177.post-24235226666193572262015-01-28T12:00:00.003-06:002015-01-28T12:00:39.538-06:00Baby's Jacket<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The first painting for 2015 is finally here! It’s a little baby jacket that I wore when I was a wee one. Baby clothes have come a long way in 40-some years! I’d love to see someone snatch it up for a nursery…:)<br />

I stopped by Starbucks the other day for a coffee and was feeling lazy, so I went through the drive-thru. The person who took my order started off by saying...Welcome to Starbucks! My favorite color is COBALT BLUE...what's yours? So, I said CHARTREUSE! Then he took my order, which was a cafe mocha (of course). When my order came out I noticed the sleeve was pea green. Another great color, so I though I would paint it. I love the challenge of mixing color!Heather B.http://www.blogger.com/profile/07808725301328841174noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8474193641536004177.post-59354886471023429882014-09-01T20:55:00.003-05:002014-09-01T20:55:55.517-05:00Summer Treat<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

It’s good to be back painting still life again! The dress above is a maybe for a wedding I’ll be attending and it’s “a maybe” because I think I could have painted it better. A little rusty with the oil paints, but I knew that would be the case. I’m trying not to dwell on it too much.<br />
<br />
Summer went by so fast! I had a great time doing some, but not enough, sketching and improvisational painting.<br />
<br />
I’ve been thinking of making some changes to my blog/social media practices. When I work in oils, I usually don’t get a very good photo of my painting until it dries and I scan it so, I think I’m just going to post “on the easel” pics to Instagram. Then when the painting is dry and available for purchase, I’ll post it here.<br />
<br />
Also…Wednesdays are going to be “Watercolor Wednesday’s”. I’ve been using watercolors all summer and truly enjoy them. I hope to get much better at them and I’ll be sharing some of my watercolor work on Wednesday’s.Heather B.http://www.blogger.com/profile/07808725301328841174noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8474193641536004177.post-63401578682910183822014-07-13T09:05:00.000-05:002014-07-13T09:05:53.509-05:00Intermission<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Since I have been doing such a great job NOT painting, I thought I would embrace it and enjoy the summer. My son has exactly only 1 month left of summer and then he will be back to school and I will be heading back into the studio.<br />
<br />
I have enrolled in a few online classes this summer. The one I am in right now is <a href="http://www.sketchbookskool.com/" target="_blank">Sketchbook Skool’s</a> Seeing course. So far it has been great and I’ll be posting my assignments on Flickr and Instagram. I’ll share those links with you once I get something posted.<br />
<br />
My <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/porchceilingblue" target="_blank">Etsy</a> shop is still open and don’t forget to check out my deals on <a href="http://www.ebay.com/usr/heather-paints" target="_blank">Ebay</a>.<br />
<br />
Last week my kids and I headed out on a photo shoot. I have been wanting to paint some landscapes, so we drove out into the country to get inspired. The photo above is from that trip.<br />
<br />
Have a great summer! See you soon!Heather B.http://www.blogger.com/profile/07808725301328841174noreply@blogger.com0
