Original artwork description:

On March 15, 2015 I agreed to participate in a 100 Art Works Challenge. Whenever I do one of these challenges, I always try to do something that's out of my "normal" realm. For this challenge, it was working with neutral colors. I began by using simple objects - cups, bowls, jars, pitchers - and someone pointed out my work reminded them of Giorgio Morandi's. I wasn't familiar with his work but did a Google search and felt like I'd met my Soul Mate!!

In the meantime I'm offering these neutral, "vessel" still life paintings for purchase - they look great grouped together and go well in a kitchen or dining room. Most are 6" x 6" works on paper, and are matted in 14" x 11" white mats with 5.75" openings and weighted bottoms for easy framing. Some are signed on the front of the painting itself - and all are signed on the back and the titles/additional signatures are on the mats themselves.

All paintings are finished with 2 coats of protective UV varnish; mounted in a 14" x 11" white mat and sealed in a clear cellophane bag before being carefully shipped in a thick, sturdy cardboard envelope.
