Day 7 of challenge

Way way too gloomy to paint oils yesterday ...so I got out my trusty watercolors and did a quick orchid study.  Might not be in the spirit of the challenge but makes me feel better about myself.

Day 6 of painting challenge...bougainvillea


Day 5 of painting challenge

Getting tempted to throw in a few watercolors to make me feel better about myself...oils are HARD.  But Told myself what better time to try something new than what we're going thru right now...

Well, I guess I'm not learning if I'm not making mistakes and having a few failures.  Yesterday's painting was horrible...but hopefully I've learned something

Day #3 of flower painting challenge

You'd think living in Hawaii we'd be surrounded by flowers...but our yard is not really blooming this time of year.  I'm really having to scrounge to find something other than plumeria to paint.  Found these on a bush next to the golf course...

Started a painting challenge... 20 paintings in 30 days

Here's my first attempt.  I'm confident with watercolors...oils is very new to me. Posting it to the challenge website is a big step for me.  You can see other's attempts on Instagram #30days20

Who wants to grocery shop these days?

Seems kinda of scary to shop these days...since we were out of bread I decided to bake some instead.
White bread yesterday, whole wheat with honey today. Easy peasy...and the house smells great!

Coronavirus MASKS!

Put the oils away for a couple of days so I could make some masks for friends and neighbors.  I have so much scrap fabric and most of my pals don't sew...so...here's the link if you want to make some ⁠DIY Mask - Face Mask Pattern - 2 Styles⁠⁦‪blog.treasurie.com‬⁩



It's a strange time...but if we keep our sense of humor and good will we should come out on the other side.  My neighbors were so cute they insisted on paying me...in toilet paper hahahahahaha
