Flower Cup

                                                
                                                   SOLD

This pretty little cup makes me think of its (imaginary) owner, an elegant English lady,
to whom this cup belongs. While I was painting, I tried to make this cup as perfect and elegant as I could. I believe I was close.

Cherries & Nectarine

                                          
                                                     SOLD

                               Working with the brushes #1 and #2 was fun.:)

Orange & Grapes

                                                  
                                                       SOLD

I forgot to post this one yesterday, so I hope you like it today! I've decided to use smaller canvas panels, and a more close - up image, and see how it goes. But these smaller panels are actually taking up more work than big canvases - that is one disadvantage!

Fruit & Teapot

                                          
                                                     SOLD

A colorful little teapot guarding a parade of fruit. One cherry broke free of the plate and escaped onto the tablecloth. I painted this "runaway" cherry last.

(My 12 year old daughter, Sofiya, wrote this description.) Thanks, sweetie!

Peonies in our little garden



That was the time when I was really fascinated with flowers, especially peonies, and here you can see where my inspiration came from
