The first is a kerosene can. I love the curly stemmed pumpkins and the little saltbox village. I would live in the red house, if I could, and give the sheep names like "Maggie" and "Estelle".
Here is an old sewing machine drawer that I painted up with the most prim jack-o-pumpkins ever! I love their toothy smiles!!! The drawer is filled with frosted pumpkins, gourds, berries, leaves and cinnamon sticks.
Finally, this is an old vintage leather suit case I found while I was on vacation. Don't you just love those black crows that are flanking the banner? I used real antique shell buttons on the pennies down each side.
I have more ideas rolling around in my head and more items already primed and ready to paint. I wonder what it will be today? Hmmmmm, another sewing machine drawer or a coffee pot? I never know until one of them speaks to me and says, "Me, me!!!! Make something out of me!!!"

I love all of these. Fall is my favorite season with all the bright and crisp colors.
Oh my goodness~you inspire me. Your painting is just wonderful. You are so blessed with talent. I am glad you have went full time with your art. My husband is a Public School Administrator ~it takes so much time. He is working on his Doctorate at Columbia all this month.
Sometimes he is so busy I feel he has little life!
You have a wonderful day~
