Daily Painting Blue Bottle#1

February 4, 2016 by Lin Kerr Leave a Comment

I have begun a series of daily paintings in oils and I hope you enjoy this new project of mine. These paintings will be for sale but at the moment we are still developing the website. I am hoping to launch this series on Leap Year – the 29th February. These means that you will be able to give a friend an original oil painting as a special gift at an affordable price. An old bottle is often a bit foggy without the sparkle of bright polished glass. This is a very old bottle complete with its … [Read more...]
