Playing with Pastels

"Onion in Gingham", pastel, 7x5" This is another in my mini-series of paintings of vegetables and gingham. The 30 in 30 Challenge is really good for me right now. It is helpful to have a goal! My new favorite quote is... "A goal without a plan is just a wish." Antoine de Saint-Exupery

"Where Have All the Flowers Gone?", pastel, 7x5"   It was 3 degrees when I woke up this morning and I was longing for summer!I found a photo I took in July of flowers from my garden. Where are they now!?! Playing with my pastels... Judy

"Red Pepper in Blue Gingham", pastel, 7x5" "In your cotton shirt and faded jeans, you came for me And the gingham dress was all I had to wear With a dollar in your pocket and a borrowed car You picked a yellow daisy for my hair That's the way it could have been" Dolly Parton - That's The Way It Could Have Been   Something about a voluptuous pepper and gingham makes me smile! The lyrics to this Dolly Parton song are making me long for warm summer sun!  I am going to try a few  other vegetables wearing gingham during the course of the 30 in 30 Challenge. Judy
