Radishes on Glass Plate

Found this gorgeous bunch of radishes while at the store. My older son loves them with salt, so I had an excuse to purchase (and paint)! Thought the glass plate added some nice shadow interest.

Roses on Stripes

My mom sent me flowers the other day. So sweet, and double bonus! Not only do we get to enjoy their beauty, I also get to paint them.

Daffodil Dreamin'

​We have had unseasonably warm weather here in Southern Wisconsin. The mid-60s in February, which as far as I can remember, is unheard of! Received some beautiful tulip and daffodil bulbs and completed the spring dream.

Hydrangeas

Went to a baby shower recently and brought home some blue hydrangeas and pink tulips. I've been enjoying having fresh flowers in the house! Such inspiration for painting. :) Love the glow of this top one and also the whimsy and fun of the one on stripes.

True Love

Yes, I'm one of those saps that gets excited about Valentine's Day--all that pink and red together...!

Flowers Galore!

Well, I think I've gotten the florals out of my system--for now! There are about six total and all have been added to my brand new website. Check it out if you haven't yet.

I was feeling the round vase on these two and just love the freshness of the arrangements.

Peonies

Happy New Year! I felt like celebrating the end of a tough year painting something I love--flowers. They are painted from the same bouquet of peonies, but two different angles. The brighter is also painted on a black gessoed panel, much looser. Can't decide which I like better, how about you?

Grapes on Glass Plate

The last glass painting was definitely looser than this one... However, after painting the grapes I felt the plate needed to be tidier or it would attract more of the attention. SO much fun experimenting with this glass; going to keep at it!

Glass Cup & Saucer

This antique pink glass was catching the light in the most beautiful way. The pattern is multi-faceted, like a prism. Love it!

Cocktail, Anyone?

It started with the Moscow Mule and then I was inspired to try painting other drinks. Glass is one of my favorite things, and equally fun to paint. Using transparent colors, I tried to keep them loose.

Decorative Kale

Thought it was such a great idea to put this kale from my garden in a vase!

Beer Flight

The beer culture has really taken off these past few years. It's fun going into a liquor store and selecting craft beers or ordering some favorites from restaurants. This flight was from a great place in Milwaukee. No decisions necessary!

Vintage Seltzer Bottles

Went to the Iron Horse Hotel in Milwaukee this summer. There were vintage seltzer bottles all over the place--in the lobby, the bar, and in their adorable little boutique. These were set up on the window casting a beautiful glow.

Peppercorns

Thought these glass jars of peppercorns would be another excellent excuse to paint glass. :)

Purple & Coral

A friend I taught with asked me to do a commissioned painting for her newly remodeled bathroom. She provided a color palette and wanted flowers in a glass vase. I couldn't pass up another opportunity to paint glass and felt spring with this one! :)
