"Awe Shucks" By Kelli Miller

You see the apple in the cup just gave the little apple a compliment and she is so shy she's trying to hide the fact that she is blushing!

"Bronco Fan" By Kelli Miller

The Denver Broncos won yesterday (huh?). So, in honor of their win, I am posting this orange and blue painting. (The Broncos colors are orange and blue:)

"All Grown Up" By Kelli Miller SOLD

I was bummed that the buds on these carnations didn't bloom.

"Pink Buddies" By Kelli Miller

These are the same carnations from my previous post. I am going to paint them every other day to see how the fill out. Kinda fun.

"Cheating... a Little" By Kelli Miller

So... did you know it's easier to paint carnations if you turn the blooms away from you? Lol. That's what I did in this painting. So I'm kinda cheating:)

I haven't blogged or painted for the past two and a half weeks. My father-in-law had open heart surgery. So spent a lot of time at the hospital plus my youngest has been home for the past 2 weeks and my oldest came home for a week. Now I'm back to being an empty nester again. It doesn't get any easier. She even took her cat:(

"Red Carnation" By Kelli Miller

This carnation was very difficult for me to paint. As hard as I tried I couldn't see the layers. I lost track of how many times I wiped it and started over! I finally got it on the umpteenth time. Woohoo!!

"Five O'clock" By Kelli Miller

Just got back from vacation. It was cooler in Mexico than it is here in Denver! In Mexico it didn't matter whether it was 5 o'clock or not. We saw people drinking at 9:00 in the morning! We at least waited till 12:01 :)
