#006 Painting a Day. Week's theme is coffee.

#006 Stovetop espresso pot. I'm sort of ok with this. I found this image online and now wish I had taken one of my own. The pic I chose didn't have a lot of reflection and contrast in it and the outcome is pretty flat. So much for taking shortcuts when you are tired. Sheeshers.

#003 of Painting a Day. Week's theme is COFFEE!

The phrase, "I never promised you a rose garden," keeps popping into my head as I paint. I think my paintings are sending me messages. I'm coming to realize just how much goes on in my head when I paint. Lots of distractions. And it makes me question my end product. But that's what this is all about...sticking with it, trying to focus, and accomplishing a goal...tiny...bits...at...a...time.

This little baby is #001 of my first Painting a Day project. I'm holding my breath and keeping my fingers crossed that I stick with this!
