Most photos on this blog tend to be taken when rushing about the place.
But really there is nothing I like so much as hanging around at home not doing very much.
Here is a detail of the painting R. just finished. The pink cloud is very summery and the pool image seasonal too.
Somehow bits of paper which happen as byproducts of paintings seem to have an accidental charm of their own.
Great excitement yesterday as the new countertop arrived. We have never had a stone one before and will, no doubt, look at it for hours. It reminds me of the beach at Essouira when the tide pulls water through darker sand. The zinnias have little speckles in them.
As well as zinnias, the green market at Union Square had all the red fruits one could dream of - peaches, apples, plums, raspberries. The late afternoon sun sneaks in sideways...........
Hello !

Me too...hanging around home and not doing very much! :)
ReplyDeleteLovely photos and wonderful painting.
THe colors of Robert's painting are so evocative of summer, I feel like going back to Karen's pool ;)
ReplyDeleteAnd that countertop has such movement! I do love to be home and look at old corners with new eyes.
Oh that painting is beautiful! Your new countertop does look very impressive! I love chilling at at home also :)
ReplyDeleteAh, to spend more time at home doing nothing and setting up still lives! Sounds good to me!
ReplyDeleteYour new countertop does indeed look very much like the beach!
ReplyDeleteAdd my admiration for the new countertop. *Wish* the being home thing entailed more 'chilling' - am feeling the squeeze of relentless deadline once again..
ReplyDeleteAll beautiful images. I really like the painting, like small details of a life :-).
