Two Small Ones for the Week

The plan was to do one hour paintings again this week, one as a warm to start each day and get me
in the zone to conquer larger pieces. Well, I just couldn't quit. So I spent 3 days on these two 8 X 8 paintings.

My daughter asked me for a Santa painting. So here it is Betsy.

This Thanksgiving once again I brought out and used my grandmother's china. It always brings back memories and makes me think of my loved ones who used these pieces. I love how the light hits and reflects and the way the shadowed curves accent the gold trim. It's part of the holidays.
