What a bathroom! its even bigger than ours here at home, and thats in a Hotel? Love the still-lifes you set up. I once sent my parents a spectacular French Flower bouquet when they had their 35 wedding anniversary in Paris. Their was no room to put it, due to size (of bouquet and room) so they put it in the bidet, and their my Mum painted it!

Now I will try another one. On a partially finished piece you had in one of the photos, you had washed on all the warm colors, with some value, but obviously the cooler colors would provide a darker set of values. Do you always start you paintings this way? I do admire the soft "glow" you have created in your work.<BR/>I adore the bathroom shots. I drove my son crazy when he was young by doing things like that. I think he still believes his artist mother to be well south of normal.Kathleen Barneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05646385858931164718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-1163691793715675722006-11-16T10:43:00.000-05:002006-11-16T10:43:00.000-05:00Yr version of the hotel bathroom looks much more i...Yr version of the hotel bathroom looks much more interesting. <BR/>And all those goodies waiting their turns! <BR/>I hope we'll get to see more results..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-1163687104516922172006-11-16T09:25:00.000-05:002006-11-16T09:25:00.000-05:00Merci pour le coup d'oeil: two teapots in one shot...Merci pour le coup d'oeil: two teapots in one shot.
