The Millinery Shop

 
18x16 Oil on texture panel
 This is my copy of Edgar Degas "The Millinery Shop"
I loved painting this. I'm glad I used the textured panel.  It gives a nice look to the lace on the hats.


"Parakeet"

 
8x10 Oil on linen
Our local zoo has a bird aviary filled with parakeets.  They will fly down and land on your hand so you can feed them.  This guy liked having his picture taken.
 


"Silver Teakettle"

 
 
11x14 Oil
I found this teakettle in a thrif store.  I don't think it's very old but I thought it had a lot of character.  The handle was interesting with the missing paint.  I painted this on a smooth Artist Panel with 1.5" sides.
