Lillies

 I bought these lillies before the weekend expecting them to open quite quickly.  They didn't!  So I decided to go ahead and paint them in bud and will hopefully get a second painting out of them once they are fully in flower.  

El Agua, Water,

 A painting for the Venezuelan Watercolour Association, AVA virtual exhibition. "Water" was the theme of the exhibition, and although I live right on the water it has been far too cold to sit out and do a painting.   I have been enjoying the challenge of painting glass and including either pewter or brass trays so this is what I decided to submit.

I like the challenge of painting glass.

                                      Some glass collected over the years on a pewter tray.
