"The Things We Love" SOLD

"The Things We Love"

12 x 12in oil on museum quality panel

$550

The things we love make us smile, warm our hearts and keep us coming back for more.  Market umbrellas, a glass of wine shared, and sunshine spilling out over it all---Italy is that and more. Here is the courtyard of Italian Kisses from a slightly different angle--we always return to the things we love:))

In Other News:
How do I love to teach?  Let me count the ways:))
Workshop in Paris (KY) well under way, palettes full of inviting color, laughter of friendship, busy brushes all add up to a very full heart.

 Me--lucky??  You bet the cat's pajamas (yes, Eddie wears pajamas.  Silk, of course, with a smoking jacket.  Cuban catnip cigars.  I know, I didn't know they made such a thing either--there's just no accounting for taste.)

We listened to French songs while painting a bit of Italy.  Tomorrow I guess I must play Pavarotti while painting France:))

Wish you were here with us! Pin It

 Writer Deepak Chopra talks about how we perceive things--are we in the world or is the world in us??
