Macaroons

I painted this for the challenge this week. Radiant Orchid. Wonderful color! My amigas and I recently went to a lovely French Restaurant here in Guatemala City named La Madeleine. They serve a fabulous lunch on a great terrace filled with french looking furniture. On our way out we each purchased a "set" of lovely macaroons. For the challenge I changed the color of the rose one to orchid. But, before I ate them.....of course, I had to paint them:)

Expressionism and Impressionism- The Beach Umbrella Challenge

This weeks painting challenge was Expressionism and Impressionism. Trying to paint somewhere in the middle. I am usually way to picky and overwork my paintings till they are mushy blobs. I am working on over obsessing.........Hmmmm. It's going to be awhile:) But love the beach and the ocean so this one was especially appealing for me to try! Hope you like it!
