| Candle 2012 |
And . . . this year's version of the candle. That bowl of blueberries only got away on one card! A simple mug works very nicely. And adding the red curtain really balances the candle. I painted two copies of this card simultaneously, one of them for my art teacher--I'm waiting to hear his critique of the painting! Last year I actually set up an assembly line, doing four cards at the same time. In fact, you can see one of them here; can you spot the differences between it and the one above? I realized, after the cards were in the envelopes, that I forgot to paint in the snow piled on the window frame ledges, and the falling snowflakes! Oh well, I guess the blizzard is already over this year! Which of the two cards do you like better?

I like the shading on the candle and curtain of last year's. Very nice.
Well, this one is more simple and serene, which I like. The other one feels cozy with all the snow outside. So I would have to declare a tie. You can send me either one. :)
I'll have to be sure to do that! :)
