HI, This is the demo I did for class. I had it all drawn and then painted one of the orchids there. Today I've painted the second one. We had 4 orchids to paint from. This is one I bought. (There's always some excuse to buy flowers /orchids!! and I love flowers so.. )
It's a rainy day here. I had Tai Chi at ESO in Belle Haven this morning,my friend Beth and I are taking it. Jim Mahoney is the teacher and we have learned so very much. He's a very dear man and excellent teacher.
Puppy news.. Sarah,the mother yellow lab is doing well and getting larger as we speak.. Her belly is almost to the floor. She is due to have puppies the end of this month.( We get first pick-- I'm so excited!!!)
Now we need names.. anyone got any doggie names.. I'd love it if you'd share some. I'll get finally pick of course.. with a little say from John.. :) Girl probably, but some boy names too in case!!! Let me know!! thank you, talk to you soon,Diana
I am getting excited about the puppies, too!

ReplyDeleteThe orchids are gorgeous.
Oh a puppy. Lucky you!
ReplyDeleteWe are gazing at the same flowers these days. :) Just posted a photo of an orchid on FB today and finished an amaryllis painting this past week. I love the way you paint your backgrounds.
Dear Diana - the orchids are beautiful - I too never need an excuse to buy flowers (LOL) - Hmm - puppy names - perhaps you can do a google search. We are thinking of getting a new shepherd puppy and I have been struggling with names as well. Sometimes when you bring them home though there is something that they do that gives you a thought. How exciting - a new baby - Talk to you later.

Thank you for the beautiful things you said about me on your blog. you are a blessing to me.Thank you Kathleen.
