Kitty Pitcher Oil on wood 8" x 8" SOLDClick image to see bigger.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart to all of you who emailed me directly and commented on the blog post before this one. Having the input of so many talented and vibrant artists and collectors is a treasured blessing to me. Not sure how "Mother Nature's Smack Down" will shape my future. I'm still sitting on the fence with regards to future outdoor shows. One thing for sure: My desire to paint is still strong and I count that as a blessing too.
It is so good to see another beautiful DH painting!! Your week must have been successful. I'm glad you are back with a new prop and enthusiasm to paint! :-)
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely painting Diane, it's vey clean and pure. I love the kitty pitcher, what a great find for still lifes!
ReplyDeleteThis one is a winner! That kitty pitcher is masterful, and again your color choices are beautiful.

Diane, you're stronger than any disappointment. Your art is a fire that burns bright within you. No one can extinquish that flame.
ReplyDeleteNothing can stop its brilliance from shining. It grows stronger with every brushstroke. Your talent develops and improves with every painting. New work is better than the old. Great artists don't get stuck in thoughts that hold them back, but grow with every new-found insight and motivation. This is your goal.
Now is your time.
Go get 'em, tiger ~
Diane, Thank you for your kind words. Since visiting your blog these past months, I see something in you that is unshakable and beautiful, so use that core strength to overcome any setback life hands you. I'll be cheering you on.

Hello Diane:
ReplyDeleteI had been a secret admirer from Japan. Please keep good work. I have been learning from your works a lot! I am especially impressed by your petals(both flowers and animals fur) and shiny surface of those vases and pitchers and toys. Thanks for adding pleasure to my life.
Ditto, ditto, ditto what DJ said. Hugs to you.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are back painting and this one is lovely. I always like your use of color.
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine the devastation of the outdoor show, but you are moving on....
So glad your back!! I totally understand how you must be feeling about outside shows. Your work is amazing!
ReplyDeletelove the still life here...the cat vase and the receding lines of the fabric!
ReplyDeleteSo glad to see you push on past the storm. This painting is so much fun and done in your unmistakably soft creamy style. Love that kitty creamer. You always find the coolest props. I like the way you've brought in so many green and yellow elements. The striped fabric brings is all together. Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteDiane, it was raining out side but you shine!
