WALTZING MATILDA- SOLD

           
                   DAY 27 OF THE LESLIE SAETA 30 PAITINGS IN 30 DAYS CHALLENGE

I don't know why I named this Waltzing Matilda except that the name came to me as I was doing the painting.  The lovely "falls" on the iris seemed like an old-fashioned gown swirling around and I envisioned the iris as a dancer.

This painting was labor intensive but enjoyable to do.  I feel that this challenge has really helped me break through some painting blocks (in other words I've learned a few things).  They say that to really get good you have to cover 10,000 feet of canvas (along with learning the principles).  I may get there before it's all over! ........THAT'S A "MAY", but the journey is half the fun!

ORANGE ICELAND POPPY

                           23rd DAY OF THE 30 PAINTINGS IN 30 DAYS CHALLENGE

I chose another Iceland Poppy today from my photo file.  I seem to be in an orange groove lately.  I do love the bright color, but will try to step back next time.  I can't wait until next spring to get some more pictures of them.  They are quite amazing, but so fragile.  I tried to plant some one time and the wind got to them before they were even at their peak..

ONCE UPON A TIME

My Panda Bear is working very hard to get more educated.  He is trying to read one book a week to further his education.  This time we are kept in the dark as to which book he has chosen to read...
Sort of still looks like a story book to me.
