BALANCING LIFE DAY-TO-DAY

4 GLOBES * 14"h x 8"w pastel *Courtesy of Tirage Gallery Funny how some paintings resonate above others with an Artist. This is one for me and always have been quite fond of it. Such a balancing act with the elements. . . as with life.  All appears calm and orderly, but just takes one slip!

A STICKY JELLY CONTESSA!

ORANGE + JELLY 4 1/2" x 4 1/2" pastel 8" square archival white matte, glass + gold frame $150 + $15 insured priority shipping Everyone knows the Contessa is so fond of jelly.  Her donuts are so dramatic while oozes with the sticky stuff. What can I do but strike with another jelly?  ps my fingers are sure sticky!

JELLY BATTLEFRONT

YIKES! A little birdie told me the Contessa is striking tonight.   So I'm getting my soldiers in a row  to prepare for her jelly siege.  When . . .  oh when will she strike?

STILL IN THE GAME

WHITE FROSTING 4 1/2" x 4 1/2" pastel Okey  . . .  time has passed with no sight of the Contessa. But I'm still in the game! Anyone else want to play? Got Frosting?

TRIP TO THE TURRET

TURRET AT THE DEL 6 1/2" x 6 1/2" pastel SOLD - PRIVATE COLLECTOR With spring in the air and the sun shining,  I believe it calls for a trip to the beach. So what's more famous than Coronado beach?

AN ELEGANT SERVICE 4 1/2" x 4 1/2" pastel 8" square archival white matte, glass + gold frame SOLD - PRIVATE COLLECTOR With rain and thunderstorms predicted for the next few days,  I just want to snuggle in a blanket and drink coffee.  And how luxurious is it with a silver pot?  Seems others are in the same mode for many fellow Daily Painters Originals have been creating  tea sets and cups as well.  Karen Bruson is one.

YOU SCREAM, I SCREAM COFFEE

A MORNING CUPPA 4 1/2" x 4 1/2" pastel 8" square archival white matte, glass + gold frame $150 + $15 insured priority shipping What is a morning without coffee or tea,  especially on a cloudy, overcast day?
