Show rose #212

Daily painting #212. 5"x7" oil on primed canvas panel SOLD

A beautiful single rose for my beautiful girl who has danced her heart out in a show this weekend! It has been busy...and she is exhausted (so am I)... But thank goodness she has a week off of school because of all the public holidays. Time to relax, chill with a good book and time for me to spend some quality time in my studio! Other than doing my daily paintings, I haven't had much time for anything else! So well done my little sweetheart....I couldn't have been a prouder mamma this weekend and I know you enjoyed every minute of being on the stage....well done to you! 

A quick sneaky pic from backstage!

Brown mushroom #211

Daily painting #211. 5"x6" oil on primed canvas panel

There has been no time to cook fancy or time consuming meals this weekend! I have spent most of the weekend backstage helping at a show my daughter is dancing and acting in. You don't get more simple and delicious than big brown mushrooms grilled with some garlic butter and fresh herbs ....a simple juicy meal! Yum!

Moth No2 #210

Daily painting #210  6"x6" oil on primed canvas panel

Found on the concrete floor in my studio....a beautiful moth. A victim of my black and white cat, Noo-Noo who loves to sleep in my studio! Obviously he lost interest once the poor little moth just lay still and stopped fluttering around....unfortunately for the moth....it was too late!

Friday morning #209

What a soulful way to start the day.....and it's the start of a long weekend! Although in this house it will be a busy weekend! My daughter is dancing in a show and we have a birthday celebration on Sunday for her with grannies and grandpas. So a peaceful Friday morning painting is just what I need! I hope your weekend gets off to a good start....I also have a huge canvas I am working on ....I think I will have to share a picture with you ....

The same roses....only the full bunch of roses this time! They have been too pretty to not share! I promise this will be the last of them though....it's time to move them out of my studio and into my home to enjoy over the long weekend!

Birthday rose #206

Daily painting #206. 6"x6" oil on primed canvas panel

On the 23rd of April, tomorrow, when this post goes live....my baby girl will be celebrating her 11th birthday! After 5 grandsons in the Shedlock family, finally 11 years ago a healthy little baby girl arrived. But our joy quickly turned to heartbreak as within 24 hours she had picked up an infection in the hospital which went straight to her lungs and we were told our beautiful baby girl would not make it through the next 24 hours! I don't think I have ever experienced such despair and panic as I watched each breath she took hoping it wouldn't be the last ....anguish like I hope never to experience again! But she is a special soul, sensitive yet strong beyond measure....she never gave up the fight...a brilliant doctor and bucket loads of prayers (actually begging on my part) ....she is still here today and we are so grateful and blessed! Amy Rebecca Shedlock have a special birthday my darling girl.....your birthday will never pass without me feeling huge gratitude....reminding me of just how fragile and precious life can be!

Happy birthday beautiful girl....you always love my floral paintings...so a rose today....in all your favorite colors....
