Cherry and brandy Christmas cake #460


Daily painting #460. 6"x8" oil on primed canvas  panel

Today was the last day of the season's festive feasts...a traditional lunch on New Years Day at my mum's house. The last of the feasts ....and the last festive season painting until next year ....heaven willing I am still daily painting! My clothes are all feeling tight, a price to pay for all the feasting! For someone who loves to cook, I can honestly say I am tired of being in my kitchen! On the 3rd of January we are heading off for one last get away before my husband returns to work. We are going to a place called Pumula down the south coast. For those of you who have been following my blog for a while, you will know this summery place on the beach has a special place in my heart....my children have grown up here and we have been holidaying there since before Andrew and I were married! One of the best things about a trip to Pumula for me (besides quality family time) is that the food is delicious and I don't have to cook it!!! So I guess my clothes are going to get tighter still ....it is going to have to be back to some exercise and seriously healthy eating when we return! All the feasting is taking it's toll....and NO more cherry and brandy Christmas cake for me!

Old year, new year #459


Daily painting #459 5"x7" oil on primed canvas panel

It is the afternoon of the last day of 2014....and my last daily painting of the year! I have completed 459 daily paintings in as many days ...and 2014 is my first full year of daily painting...one each day of the year. 2014 you have been kind to me! As I bid farewell to the old year and welcome in the new year, I am grateful for the health, determination and passion that has kept me going throughout the year. Who knows what 2015 has in store but I am ready to give it my best shot! Happy New Year to you all....wherever you may be....make 2015 a good one!
