Birthday Present

For my birthday last year Nate gave me one of my favourite presents. A day to paint. He cooked, cleaned and took care of the kids all day while I sat on the back verandah and painted. I was going through a red and turquoise phase, though all I had to use was blue and red house paint and some black and white water colors, hence, the finished product...


I copied the flower painting from one I liked on the internet (search turquoise and red flower paintings), I painted a panera (winnowing basket) that got moldy in the rain and used a branch from the back yard as inspiration, and the little rectangle painting is my attempt to give a birch tree effect. (Hubs didn't realize it until I told him :).
