Psssst Auction Starts on Saturday

To my blog-insiders, here’s the painting that will be put up for auction on Saturday.  It is called Wonderful Day, Delightful Night because it reminds me of years past after a special candlelit dinner and that ever so special cup of espresso. The candle has burned down, the espresso awaits and the very satisfying feeling of contentment emerges, declaring it a wonderful day and delightful night!    If only I was 35 again and could stay up high on caffeine all night!

Wonderful Day, Delightful Night
Thanks to GB for this challenge, even though I misunderstood the concept of a "night" painting.

Feel free to forward this email and link to my blog so others can find their way to Daily Paintworks and the amazing art auctions.  I need your help in getting the word out there! 

Hoping to get a chance to paint tomorrow and definitely plan on attending the Diff4ent Strokes interactive painting demo on Saturday 4-13 at ArtSquare in Leesburg.  Open to the public.  http://www.loudounacademy.org/galleryindex.html#upevents

One of my pet-peeves is poor grammar. . . what was I thinking with the last title?  It should be My Shadow and I.  This is a famous song, which maybe explains why our grammar is so challenging to learn.  Funny Lady (no pun intended, look it up).

Anyway, I’ve decided to glaze my next painting, so the first layer has to completely dry.  Since that one is not ready to post, here’s another that I plan to auction once I figure out how that whole process works.  BTW, I have one currently on auction (click here for “Tranquility”) if you’re interested in bidding or know someone who might be – as always, please forward this blog to your friends and encourage them to sign up for email updates! 

Wonderful Day, Delightful Night

A special evening by candlelight topped off with a great cup of espresso.  We have these beautiful tiny gold spoons that I thought went quite well with the brass candlestick and candle who's job is to show that the evening started long before the espresso!
