Tea With Mollie

I can hardly believe its been almost a week since my last post!
Hope this painting makes up for it - my version of a Mollie Jones demo on Painting Friends ( you can see Mollie's version HERE)
Mollie is a wonderful artist and person, always ready to help. I've named this painting for her, as a homage.

  6. Thanks, Sandra!
    Can't remember if I've tried silver before - but Mollie made it sound so easy with her demo - and voila!
    I'm sure there will be more on the horizon :) xx

  19. Pat...tried to comment earlier, but Blogger doesn't like me today. This is just gorgeous...you did a marvelous job with the silver and the reflections. Really love the blue in the teapot gray also...grays can be so flat...and this one isn't flat. Good job.

  21. The spoons look hard...getting them to shine like that...but then I know that your new fun is crystal and such so I bet you enjoyed painting them. Love to see us BOTH having fun with our creations! xx

  30. Love this one Pat! Great color and contrasts!

  31. That's a pretty good attempt at silver Pat. It's not easy I know. It was difficult enough for me when I tried painting a car with chrome headlights and wing mirrors. You know what you can see, but it doesn't feel right when you are laying down the paint!

  32. Wow, Pat.... haven't been around much this summer (busy, as usual) but I see that I've missed a lot of gorgeous paintings on your blog! This is awesome... love the bright colors, the crispness of the reflections and the cleanness of all the colors. Great job girl!!
