"Cream & Sugar"

6" x6",Oil on gessoed hardboard

Yesterday I was trying to decide what to paint. I get bored doing the same subject matter over and over again. I walked around my house looking for inspiration and took a good look at all the pretty things I've collected over the years. I realized I have enough subject matter right under my nose to keep me busy for a long , long time! So, in honor of turning 50 this year (ok, the word is out!), I decided to start a new series I'm calling, ''50 of My Favorite Things''. This is the first of 50 paintings ... a pretty antique cream and sugar set I picked up at a flea market years ago. I rarely use them(I grab a Splenda packet and pour milk right from the carton into my mug every day) so I'm glad I can put this cute little set to use! Hope you enjoy....
