Just for fun

 
 I took my acrylic paints with me on vacation just in case I got a chance to paint and sure enough there where a couple of days where it was great just to stay indoors and use my memory of Key West to paint some fun and funky conch house cottages.  The above one is Pearl Street in Bloom 

I call this one Hibiscus Cottage.  I have two lovely hedges of red hibiscus flowers in my yard.  I would love to have that riot of flowers.
 

I call this one Golden Rod Cottage.  I was in North and South Carolina and the golden rod was in bloom all along the highways, really pretty.

    Delightful paintings Maggie! I love them all with their fun shapes and sunny colors.
    I peeked into your spacious studio also. Must be quite inspiring working there.

    Thanks for the sweet comments. I keep trying to paint "serious" but there is something in me that wants to make things look like a littel girls birthday party. So maybe I should just imbrace the "cute"

    Bonjour Maggie vos peintures sont pleines de couleurs que j'aime vraiment beaucoup; votre interprétation de vos thèmes est très séduisante, très vivante!
    Magnifiques fleurs.
