Silly Titles

Today,I framed the Chickadee with the Star Magnolias. Thank goodness I've got both paintings ready for the opening on Friday. It's the Eastern Shore Art League Spring Art Show at the Red Queen Gallery in Onancock.The Opening is March 16 from 5pm-8pm.

About a month ago we were asked for the titles of our paintings. Naturally, I didn't have a clue, because I hadn't painted them yet! I came up with some names but truly wanted to name them Spring Masterpiece#1 and Spring Masterpiece #2.. but I was good and didn't do it. They are "In the Spring" and "Springtime Blessings".. well I didn't know what I was going to paint either! ha ha..

Tell me about what you are painting now!! talk to you soon. Diana--The other painting for the show is the daffodil watercolor pictured..

Opening and Resting!

Well , the opening at Red Queen Gallery was wonderful. So many people came, and we all had a lovely time. Both Gertraud and I have sold some of our work and the show continues until July6th so we hope to sell more. I know I'm exhausted. I truly put everything I had into the paintings. Also I didn't get my frames until 2 days before the show, but I got it all done and we got it up and it 's wonderful. Hope if you are nearby you can go by the Gallery and see it. Their hours are Wed,Thurs.,Fri,and Sat. 1oam-5pm and Sunday afternoons.. Onancock,Va. or you can go to www.redqueengallery.com for more info.

Needless to say I've been resting and reading and drinking coffee and just hanging out for the weekend. My son came home for the weekend and that was nice. I did quickly sketch this, I love bottles especially the old ones and the blue ones. Take care and talk to you soon,Diana
