There wasn't much to say without ice cream the party was over


WHAT? I thought of the title as I was painting! When I was a little girl I would sneak into the kitchen,ever so quietly to get a bowl of ice cream. I was certain that nobody heard me,then my mother would calmly say caaaaathy? She was my chubby checker.
It's funny what you think about when you paint.
Orchids from a photo. I guess I got a little carried away.Maybe I should crop it.

Cathy, I like the repeated red, which is in lovely balance.

Ice cream, hmm? It's the season . . .

I wish this came printed on linens, I would wrap my bed in it! Your work would look lovely in textile designs.

Fantastic, strong color and movement, so characteristic of your paintings! I like the white spaces too--and wouldn't want to lose them in cropping.

LOVE seeing your pretty face there in your profile pic!

Now I'll be able to recognize you when we meet. :) Just give me until after the middle of May, and I will be free as a bird!
