Pointsettia
5"X7" Oil on board
There are many little corners of this house that I would like to paint, places where the light is especially nice or bits of shabby old furniture that I am particularly fond of. I was a fan of "shabby chic" long before I knew it had a name and this house is the ultimate showcase for the style. This is rather an odd little composition, it is hard to find a good spot to paint that isn't a thoroughfare. I do like painting interiors though and need the practice. For some very fine interiors you should visit Sheila Vaughan's blog.

Sarah, I think this painting works really well; a glimpse of a chair, not all of a plant, but that is how our homes seem to us as we move constantly through them. This is a lovely, personal painting. Thank you for your reference by the way.
