Cove mooring-sold

Oil on canvasboard, 6" x 6"

Yesterday my friend Janice and I went to the Newport Art Museum to see a show of paintings by Dora Atwater Milliken. Quite a nice show, I really admire her work.  Afterwards we went painting on Ocean Drive. I wiped off my first painting but was relatively happy with this one.

Tiger two-sold

Oil on canvas, 6" x 8"

Tiger lilies- they're so easy to grow, they're basically weeds, but the flowers are so very elegant and delicate. Unlike daylilies, they also seem to be good cut flowers; these have lasted several days, and they were in bloom for a while before I cut them.

Hydrangeas again.

Got the blues-sold

There really isn't anything in the flower world like a bunch of blue hydrangeas (and painting them small makes it easy to justify not painting individual petals)...
