REFLECTIVE TEA, by Dottie Martz, dottiefromvirginia






Original oil on 8x10 canvas panel                          website:  dottiemartz.com

This is the final (I hope) posting of this set-up.  My personal critic (my daughter Carol) mentioned that the flowers had more detail than the teapot so I  had to add blue on the bottom of the teapot.

Truly, when I looked at my set-up and the reflections...I ONLY saw the white...no blue.  I admit, though it does look better with more detail.  If one side is detailed...the other HAS to be too.

I like painting reflections...it is a challenge...and we can use that old  "artistic license"!

Please check oujt my web sitge...lots of good stuff there!

Wild Red Cannas by Dottie Martz



Oil on 12x9 panel.  Web site:  dottiemartz.com

These cannas would not grow next to my garage...so I literally threw them into the swamp in my back yard.  Now they are thriving! I can see them from my kitchen and I look forward to seeing them every summer.
