Part of my reason for having a blog is to include lessons and exercises that will help someone learn to paint, but with blogs that information gets lost in the archives. I was thinking that a "search button" on my blog would help with that problem. I hate to admit this, but I installed one awhile ago, but forgot that it was there. I moved it to the top right of this page. I checked it out and it really does work.
There are lessons embedded in old archives.

(This reminds me of the wonderful pies my mother used to make. The napkins belonged to my grandmother. It is a very sentimental painting for me. My daughter-in-law has tried to teach me to make pie crust. She makes great pies, too, and so does my son. I am better at eating pie.

Your painting is entirely yummy looking. If you hadn't told us of the sentiment in its elements, I'd have felt it anyway. Homey and nostalgic. Nicely done, Carol!
