SQUASH SERIES #1

I've always been intrigued by the variety of fancy squash that we see in markets this time of year.  Thought I would paint a few of them just for fun.  This is the first of the series and I finished the 2nd today which I will post in a day or two.  The patterns and shapes of the various squash are all amazing.  I just wonder how they are hybridized?

WATERLILY REFLECTION

           DAY 28 OF THE LESLIE SAETA 30 PAINTINGS IN 30 DAYS CHALLENGE

Only 2 more days to go on the challenge after today.  The most difficult thing at this point is figuring out what to paint.  I pledged (to myself) to do flower for these 30 days and I am running out of inspiration and photos.  However, it has been interesting and beneficial.  I would highly recommend doing Leslie's next challenge for any of you who are painters.

This was from a photo that I took at one of the lily ponds at the Mission in San Juan Capistrano.  I wish it wasn't so far from my home as it always has a wealth of flowers to photograph along with the fabulous and interesting architecture.
