On Instagram, I took part in the ten day challenge. That is an opportunity to post older work for ten consecutivve days. I don't often look back, and the task of choosing was interesting. One thing that I noticed was that, in general, my work (of late) is much bolder and brighter, not to mention more detailed than what I was doing before. People liked my older work, and so do I, but what I'm doing now makes me happy, now.
Today I finished a piece that reminds me of a hawaiian shirt. That is an after-thought, but if I were shopping, it would be the shirt I would choose.

Last week was about romance and the cliche of red of pink (Bridgerton style). It turns out painting all that red is tough, though.

The week before was about colour and pattern and the hope of warm weather and would the pandemic be over enough for a trip to Maine.

And before that I wanted to bring the sunshine inside and painted a tribute to some beautiful golden apples.
