As soon as I saw Yuehua He's painting of Blueberries on Daily Paintworks it flashed into my mind to paint one really big blueberry. So here it is.
I adore blueberries and luckily they are good for you too. Blueberries do well frozen, so if fresh isn't an option, frozen is a good option.I've lived in places where Blueberries are plentiful and cheap, so at those times you can buy huge trays of them and freeze them for desert and breakfast for the rest of the year. Little pleasures like Blueberries can be enjoyed all year round.
I know an accountant that takes payment in Blueberries from a farm he consults for. I wonder if there's a farmer out there that would swap my painting for a case of the real thing?

I love this Sea. Love blue, and love blueberries! I am laughing because it brought to mind the original Willy Wonka movie. The bratty girl that turned into a big blueberry.
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting the Art Party! So much fun seeing the work of all the artists! I can't believe I received the most votes???!! Thank You! This is a very cool start to the New Year! Congratulations to all of the winners!

ReplyDeleteThank you Vandy. Next time (if there is one) I will start sending our personal invites much earlier. I'm sure you would have been in the awards list if I had found you earlier.
DeleteYour painting caught my eye on Leslie's blog, so I came over to tell you. I've never seen a blueberry painted as such a star before! I don't know what an art party is, but it sounds fun. Congratulations to all the winners...
ReplyDeleteThank you Meredith and thank you for taking the time to come over. If you follow my blog you will be alerted to the next ART PARTY if I do one. It was a lot of fun. I'm thinking of doing another for my birthday in June. :)
DeleteLove the Blueberry! Drinking my blueberry shake at the moment. :) So I guess I missed the whole Art Party......What's that all about?
ReplyDeleteNo worries. If you look through my blog starting Nov 30th you will see the instructions and the whole party. As you follow my blog you will be alerted if I take it on again. It's quite a commitment :)

ReplyDeleteThanks Ann. As long as you follow my blog I will put a call out when I take it on again. Right now I need a bit of a rest, so what do I do? Leslie Saeta's 30 paintings in 30 days of course! Phew!
Deletethank you for your comment today, I LOVED it! I will take what you said into consideration - my husband agreed with you lol!!!
