Tangerine is a pretty good word too! |
Tangerines are called CLEMENTINI in Italian. Isn't that a pretty word. It's just like it sounds, like most Italian, no tricks. The clementini possibly have the most perfect leaves of all. I love to paint tangerine leaves. My girls and I take off the shiny leaves and put them in our pockets to bring good luck, all day long.
It's been stormy here.
everyone wants gray walls and furniture it looks good with bright color |
The sky often looks like this.
Monte Pale dusted white |
These last few days it snowed all over the mountains, but still not in the valley like I wish.
Foligno |
Isn't Foligno pretty. Foligno is a hidden secret, there are too many other famous hill towns around like Assisi. In Foligno the people are cooler also.
oh delicious tones of red |
clementini with perfect large leaves |
shades of green with unfinished wood |
and pink with bright green |
love the purple and pink |
paint or bake or eat raw? |
Does it make you want to paint an apple or think about cooking an apple pie? I make a really good apple cake with raisins, walnuts and tons of apples - it's addictive. I'm supposed to get in my studio but it makes me want to bake instead.
My studio is a bit big and cold recently see above photos for verification. I think I better warm it up with a hot cup of tea and some music played loud - always.
Carry on.
