Brimfield's back!  If you haven't heard of it, it is one of the best and largest antique markets in the U.S.  It's running now, the first week of September and is just a few towns over from me.

Back at its July show, I purchased some miniature redware vessels.  I knew I could use them for little floral arrangements and in still lifes. This one is a miniature (about 5" high) pitcher.  So in homage to the Brimfield Antique Market here's painting #3 in Leslie Saeta's "30 in 30 Challenge."

Thanks for popping by.

This is a little painting I have wanted to paint for awhile now.  I picked up this vintage coffee pot about a year ago at the famed Brimfield Flea Market.  I thought it would be interesting trying to create the illusion of glass, with all its distortions of the patterned background -- it was fun.  I hope you like it . . . and thank you for viewing my work.
