Susan's Teapot


Thought I'd post the edited (and now finished) painting of Susan's Teapot. The red check cloth and darkening of the leaves make a huge difference in the composition feel. This is one of those paintings where something bothered me and I had to live with it a little longer before calling in finished. I do like the red checked cloth...me and my love for reds!

  1. It is really gorgeous, Mollie.
    I love the amount of detail in your work and the way you capture the feeling of a particular moment in time.

  4. Thanks Pat,Christiane and Ann, for stopping by and your comments. It doesn't really show, but I think I used every red on my palette.
