"Extra Special Just for You"

7"x5" mixed media on paper

Just as promised! A martini for you! Yes, well it does look like I may have had one or two before I painted this one... but I didn't, it just looks that way!

This is the water soluble oil paint with oil pastel, that's the mixed media for this one!

Hey, it's Sunday, enjoy a celebratory drink to start (or finish) the week!

One for Myra, one for Martine, one for Hilda, one for Randy, one for me.......... extra special!

See you tomorrow.

"Good Morning Mamma!"

7"x5" mixed media on paper

This must be a subliminal cup from a restaurant we like to go to on Sunday mornings. The restaurant is Good Morning Mama's and it has a lot of yellow going on! Very happy!

This happy cup made me think of breakfast there. Number 72!

The mixed part of the media is acrylic and oil paint pen! Oh, some india ink too!

First Trip to the Coffee Pot

Second Trip to the Coffee Pot

Third Trip to the Coffee Pot

Remember the three coffee cup paintings that were all connected? Numbers 64, 65 and 66? Well, yesterday they all received their titles! "1st Trip to the Coffee Pot", "2nd Trip to the Coffee Pot" and "3rd Trip to the Coffee Pot". Thank goodness my art buddy Martha is keeping track of me and the coffee cup paintings too!
Thanks Martha!

64,65,66 and "Studio Joe"

Three acrylic paintings on 7"x15" paper soon to be seperated!

I know I shouldn't do it, but I'm doing it anyway. Here are three of the four coffee cup paintings I finished today. Oh, I will post number 67 tomorrow, or should I now?  Oh, I can't resist, here is "Studio Joe".

The windows in the background are what the windows look like in my studio, maybe not quite as clean...

Sometimes, I read art books over coffee in my studio for inspiration. You know like Van Gogh and who else can I come up with? Hmmm.... uh oh, I'm thinking again! Watch out!

Number 59, line 'em up! We're going to have a coffee party and browse over our favorite art books!
Here is a cup of coffee for Myra, for John (my friend that is going to pick up the art books) and me!

Did I say yesterday that I was painting three at a time? Here is an image of the three still stuck together, soon to be separated and put into a nice presentation mat!

See you tomorrow!

"A Trace Coffee"

Oh it's three cups of coffee! One for you, one for you and one for me! A little play on words too, tres in spanish is three, or this is a trace of coffee for the three of us! My coffee is really falling out of the cup lately, may need to add more drips or drops!

I worked on three at a time today and this one I felt is totally, pretty much finished. The other two... very close, but I need to stop for the day and paint with the Wine and Canvas group. Hope I can loosen up those painters, or maybe the wine will!

Chat with you tomorrow over more coffee!
