Little Delights

Life is full of little delights like these lovely paintings by Holly Farrell. The Coffee Pot and Wellingtons paintings are already sold, but I still couldn't resist posting them. I really can't get enough of these...pure, amazing talent. Plus, a great way to start the weekend. Here's to cool drinks, good laughs, and creative pursuits!

    Touché! The dish drain reminds me so much of my Mom. ☺ The right side of the double sink was never without one. These paintings are so detailed; they really look like photographs.

    Hope you have a great weekend!

    These are fun... garden, cup of coffee, whip up some eggs in the bowl, wash dishes, clean up and off for the day! That's my take from bottom to top!
    Greating paintings... look like photos!
