All "Dressed Up" With Somewhere To Go

This little ditty will soon be heading to its "forever home." I enjoy painting packaging and this one was no exception. This commission is joining five other paintings I painted for this collector last year. I'm sure it will fit right in. Here's the rest of "the family."

Many thanks to my collector.  This was such a fun series to paint!

Have a terrific weekend. 

A Closer Look

Here's a closer look at my latest Ben & Jerry's painting.

Remember These?

A few weeks ago I gave you a couple of "sneak peeks" of the commission I was working on.  Well here are the "peeks" and their finished paintings.  These are the final two of the group of five paintings.

It's been a bit of crazy week so far and I admittedly haven't done much painting --- gaaaahh! So nothing much to show. But I'm gearing to get back on track tonight.

Here is the final commission all together.  I think they're pretty neat.  Have a great rest of the day!

So . . . I didn't do any painting this weekend.  I played in a golf tournament with some dear, old friends on Saturday. And quite frankly I am so out of shape that on Sunday I felt like a limp dishrag. I did nothing all day but lounge around and watch "The Office" on Netflix.  Pathetic. And we rode in carts! Hahaha!

Anyway . . . I am posting two of the five commissioned paintings I worked on this summer.  They made it to their forever home so I can now share them.  It was a very fun series to do.  Each painting is of a favorite food for each member of my client's family.  The paintings can hang together and then go with each family member as they leave home.  I thought it was a nice idea.

Golfing with my club cover who is apparently near-sighted.

And here's a quick pic from Saturday's antics.  Lots of laughs!  Have a good Monday . . . hope you are feeling rested, I know I am . . . and ready to work!
