It's A Good Start To The New Year

Last year, my household got caught up in being too busy. One side effect was that we got into the habit of eating out for dinner way too often. I like my home. I like my kitchen. We both like to cook. This is something that I wanted to change in 2018 and so far so good.

I am having fun tackling more complicated scenes. Since this a small painting, making the flower minuscule from what I usually tackle, I used a size 6 brush.

Sometimes I like the picture better. Sometimes I like the original better. For this one, I like the original.
