Winnie's Windjammer

 

The Flying Cloud
by Winifred McManamen
16" x 20"
Oil on Canvas
 
The last painting of Winnie's I have to share with you is hands down my favorite. When Don and I decided to get married in the Caribbean on a Windjammer ship, Winnie excitedly asked for a brochure - crafty lady. One evening during dinner at her house she told us she had a surprise. A moment later she returned with this beautiful painting of the ship we were married on. We were so surprised! What a wonderful wedding gift.

No. 379 My Mom and Don's Still Life


My Mom and Don's Still Life
Oil on Linen Panel
5" x 7"


Don placed a bunch of tomatoes in this bowl while cleaning up the kitchen the other day. It caught my eye as I walked by a few hours later. Ah ha! My next still life prop. I love it when that happens! The bowl was made by my mom, who passed away in August. So it is a dear little bowl to me.

I've finished the 365 painting project and today is the last day of Leslie Saeta's 30 in 30 challenge. Phew! I am going to take the next few days off and enjoy my 20th wedding anniversary with Don.

Thanks so much for taking the time to visit my blog. Have a great weekend!


Don and I were married on a Windjammer sailing ship in the British Virgin Islands. Can't believe it's been twenty years!
