Hmm! Not sure what happened to Day 4 and 5.
Maybe, it was because it was a Monday and
then a day at the doctor's office
Both of these were painted in December
Here's a little teapot. 5"x7" watercolor
And for Day 5, I cheated a bit. This was a commission that
I painted for a customer as a Christmas gift for her husband.
"Wayne's Corvette"
I saw "Lorie" at a craft show.
When I saw her hat (not cowboy) and her sweet smile
I knew I wanted to paint her. I needed to catch just the right light,
so we stepped to the door which just happily
happened to be red. YeeHaw! And her red plaid shirt, perfect!!!
"Tom Orsak" is an artist and a friend. Tom is a plein air artist and I love the hat he wears
when he is painting outside.
I was delighted when he agreed to let me paint his portrait.
He and his wife, Jeane live in Harriet, Texas near San Angelo.
This is day 2 of the 30 paintings in 30 days hosted by Leslie Saeta.

It has been awhile since I participated in Leslie Saeta's 30 Paintings in 30 Days, but it's time to do it again!!!
She suggested to choose a theme or subject.
so I am thinking...
I am working on a series - "Hat People" (will post later)
and for Christmas, hubby and I went to San Antonio.
We loved the Mission Trail. So, I am also painting missions.
