An Apple a Day



Taken by Amber Elwell

Today's offering is a "biddy" painting. It is acrylic on watercolor paper and measures 4"x 5". One of my friends and fellow artists in Canvas by Canvas is Nancy Standlee. She is in her 70's (sshhh) but you would never know it. None of us can keep up with her. She's a vibrant, genuine and interesting lady. Her artistic daily journals are wonderful. (Click HERE to see them.)

This apple was done while at the Lake House where my art group, Canvas by Canvas, takes their art retreats. Nancy was busy doing a painting of one of her eclectic, colorful and very interesting ladies. I tackled an apple. Thanks Nancy for your inspiration!!

(Terms are listed to the right. Under "About Me".

Just to let you know, on behalf of those who have recently given to "My Daily Offering", a donation was mailed to Battered Womens Foundation last week. Thank you to all who made that possible. Please keep this foundation (BWF) in your prayers. They are doing a good work of encouragement and help.

Love to all,
Cindy

Thank you, Cindy, for the kudos and the blog link. You certainly do your share in making Canvas by Canvas a successful collaboration - especially being able to climb high ladders and top bunks! ns
