Still Life #9

Shells with Pebble 
Okay, so I ditched the apple and painted #9 with The Paints That Annoy. At least I didn't have to deal with red colors and get angry. Next week I will be shopping at the nearest art supply store. I have had it!

Nice....I like it without the apple. Wish I could help you with your paint problem. I am only using Grumbacher but I don't do watercolor.

Great colors :) I'm a Grumbacher girl too but I can't pull off the watercolor business ;)

Go Dora!! I am so happy for you! I wonder what you will first want to paint when you have paint you like in your toolkit??! Have fun.

Dora- I always love your shells and at least you aren't letting the apple get the best of you!

Cheri- I did enjoy the nice red apple color though. With new paints I'll try again!

Meowlissa- I'm still practicing with these watercolor paints. I even tried using them as oils. Eventually you fine your groove!

Dora Sislian Themelis said...

Lorrie- soon enough I will have to change it up! Yes, it is fun!

Sheryl - thanks! New paint, maybe new subjects!

Haha...I love your description "The Paints That Annoy" --makes me think of something out of Harry Potter. You always do a great job with your shells, regardless of the paints.

Actually, Kelly, it's Lorrie's description! But thanks for the vote of confidence on my painting!
