A Blue Willow-aholic

Blue Willow-oholic,watercolor,5" x 7"

Well another obsession is taking hold it seems.

Was the seed planted with these over-the-top Blue Willow windows in Bergdorf's?

Yesterday I bought this BW cookie tin. fun no?

And these two cups + 3 dinner plates...ahem Of course it's all meant to go with my new re-decorating theme of blue an white.

Painting Blue and White

Painting Blue and White china,5.5" x 7.5"

I'm late posting today...I've been struggling with painting blue and white china. I bought a bunch of pieces at Tiny Doll House yesterday thinking it would be a whiz to paint.

Course, now that I look again at these ginger jars at Ch. Vaux le Vicomte.

Well, they don't look like a piece of cake to paint, do they?

In fact, maybe I should stick with painting cake.

This set was in the Chateau's divine gift shop... I spotted this Coalport china enroute to Tiny Doll House - definitely not easy to paint! In the same window...well someone was able to paint the damn stuff! HUMPHIn Bergdorfs' Xmas window this china would have been a killer to paint, but I LOVE blue, especially Cobalt Blue Light. Back to cakes toute a suite! This chaotic "former" still life is not the result of my wrath.

No way! I just happened to breath in the wrong direction and WHAMO! C'est la vie...
