This one was tough! We have this bush that blooms every late summer. It makes these spectacular white trumpet flowers that are so fragrant. I have no idea what the name is, but I think I was able to capture the weird tentacles.

OK so I missed a day - life happens! I tried to set my timer and do this one in an hour like I have tried with the rest, but nothing doing....took me about 2 1/2.  Yay weekend! Lots of painting ahead.

I have to give credit to Carol Marine for this setup. The oranges are positioned almost exactly like a demo she did for our workshop last month. She is truly a genius! Mine did not turn out nearly as good as hers did, however. :)

OK so I am already behind in this challenge, offered by Leslie Saeta at http://lesliesaeta.blogspot.com/#, but here is my first painting of some of my favorite things - can you guess? I will be posting another by tonight to catch up.
