    Default Amateur Night 6

    Didn't get much painting done this winter - the orchids took up the studio lol. Here are a few tho. I'd like to say the paintings are great and my photography is poor but, well, both are lacking. Painting 3 years now and learning all the time. Enjoy.

    Yes, Margo, you are right - but it's much better if they are blooming!! My 'chids are in a grumpy mood right now. Hope to see them smile soon.
