A repost from 2018 to share my Poppies on pottery. This is a good way to sit here and heal (me) while you have something pretty to look at. A FB friend has started painting and I'm urging her on, of course. She asked me what my O'Keeffe style was.
Now I've done a vase, which still has a bit of Georgia O'Keeffe's style...and is pretty brilliant (meaning the colors are vibrant!)
I started with these 4 medium size mugs. All my mugs have Celtic Cross thumb knobs.
The same mug next to the vase.
The vase can certainly stand alone, or have some great green stems of flowers coming out of it...what do you think?
Everything is hand painted, while looking at an O'Keefe painting.

I love the poppies, I like both the vase and mug. Take care, enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteThanks...I just found your comment hidden in the "Is this spam" place. Wonder why that happens. So glad you like my attempt at art.
Delete...a great style to emulate.
ReplyDeleteSecond try to reply...first just disappeared. I said it was an interesting process to convert the colors and shapes to glazes on ceramics from her beautiful work in oil paint on canvas.
DeleteYou did some very nice work, which you can still enjoy.
ReplyDeleteThanks...I can enjoy photos, and a few of the pieces I made.
DeleteI love seeing your beautiful art, Barbara.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Robin. It's always great to hear from you!
DeleteThese are gorgeous! What happy poppies. Makes my heart smile.
ReplyDeleteMe too. And I enjoyed making them too!
DeleteYou made some lovely pieces. Glad you didn't sell them all.
ReplyDeleteThe vase is probably in someone's home...or at least packed away. It's not on my shelves. I think I just have 1 mug left.
DeleteThese are pretty.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteYes, either one can stand alone.
