Jana,
How fun to read your version of this post idea! Wow, those oranges just pop out from that black background, and are so detailed. Very realistic reflection below it too.
Vivid colors in all the paintings, and a neat up close perspective and texture to them.
I’m eager to read version two. 🙂

“You Know You’re a Youth Pastor’s Wife When…”
Marian, I recognize your name from the comments on Fine Art Views. Thank you for stopping by! And no kidding about the sun in the middle of January – why am I sitting inside at the computer, for Pete’s Sake??
I stumbled upon your blog and absolutely loved this post. How very much fun!
Loved all of the paintings and liked the way it made me smile to see your great examples.
Here’s one of mine… You know you’re a California artist when you can go out to paint at the beach on a sunny day in the middle of January!
Be well and happy painting!
