Calla

In Portland it can be a long wait for a sunny day. In the Spring, the flowers are beautiful. In front of our living room window when we lived in Portland was a patch of calla lilies. I thought they might be appropriate subjects to paint.

I found this canvas at Goodwill for about $5 and decided to paint over it (my apologies to the person who had painted the previous work, now gone forever...) The dimensions are 2 feet by 3 feet, which is my largest work so far (if you don't count the mural in my room)...I thought it was a pretty good bargain at five bucks... I foresee more trips to Goodwill & garage sales in search of canvases!
