Teapot & Autumn Leaves

Isn't this a pretty teapot? It blends nicely with the leaves and the background. This teapot also appears on one of my sold paintings, "Fruit & Teapot". Now it stars in "Teapot & Autumn Leaves".

Hot Chocolate


SOLD

To finish this painting took me nearly 6 hours. Maybe because of the book on CD, which I was listening to very carefully all the time I was painting. I feel exhausted but happy now.

Teacup & Rosebuds


SOLD

And I'm still painting October leaves. This time I added a few rosebuds, that way more color will show on the painting. For my next painting, I'm thinking of adding tea to the cup, as somebody commented on my other Autumn painting. Thanks for the suggestion, Lowalady! Have a nice weekend.

Teacup & Two Strawberries


SOLD

This is another one of my autumn leaf paintings. I gather the leaves from a field close to my house, and sometimes from my backyard. Since it's October, I find inspiration in these red-and-yellow autumn leaves. The strawberries add lightness to the painting and are also shown in the title.

Teacup & Flowers


SOLD

You can see the beauty of what you are going to paint, but it is a challenge to represent it on canvas. This is what I've been working on.

Tea & Strawberries


SOLD

Nobody in Russia would believe me - strawberries along with autumn leaves - that's impossible. We have strawberries in July and leaves become yellow and red in September. But I enjoyed that change.
