“Coffee Clutch” 9×12 watercolor
It was hard for me to take this challenge too seriously for some reason lol But I love the word “sistahs” so I decided to use Fiestaware to rhyme the word with hahaha! Actually my original concept was a full sheet watercolor on Yupo but I just couldn’t get my supplies together on time and the 8×10 study I did for it fizzled within 15 minutes (too small).
So here is my contribution to DSDF week 23-24 challenge with Karin Jurick! One can only imagine what these sistahs from different muthas were are ranting about. Maybe it’s the last season of The Bachelor and how Jason proved to be just another shortsighted man who was absent when they were distributing class! Bleeghhh I’m glad I didn’t see the whole season and decided to just peak into the last show 😉
The glamorous life and times of an artist!
Wonderful take of the challenge, Erika. Very well designed and very fun!
I think this is a great piece of art! I like all your faces!
Interesting piece, I wondered what all the tea cups where about. Then I followed the link about Jason and those girls and now I understand what you were talking about.
Love this!!!! I love Fiesta ware too….
Interesting approach and very nice artwork. I think I’ll have a cup of whatever they’re having
Really fun– Great coffee cups (I’m very fond of coffee cups). The mannequin on the bottom left has definitely had too much expresso– those eyes will be wide open all night!
Very interesting piece with the tea cups. Love your colors and very nice expressions on the mannequins faces. They have so much more life than the photo. Well done Erika!
You just had to paint your self in the upper left corner, dint’ya?
I just barely made the deadline!
I don’t know what you are talking about, but this is an interesting work. Looks like each coffee cup represents the personality of each model. lol Maybe I’m wrong, but I like the painting!
this is way more fun than I ever imagined the original source would be! way to go!
Thanks Ed, it took a while to decide whether to approach it fun or serious, hard to take seriously though lol
Thanks Tiglizzyclone I picked the ones that had attitude 🙂
LOL Adebanji, I know I threw some people off, I guess the Jason got my goat! I’m sure it was the subject of many conversations this week!
Thanks Sheila, so far you seem to be the only one who knows about Fiestaware, I have the giant cups imagining my invisible serving of cappuccino in it hehe
Thanks James, here’s a cup of cappuccino for you!
LOL Garriott I think she got the espresso cup imagine how she’d be if she got the giant one oy!
Hi Carol thanks so much I am always happy to hear what you have to say about what I produce because I enjoy what you create so much!
Red! I had no doubt that you’d meet the deadline lol And no that’s not me, just one of the heads in the photo, but you know they say we tend to paint ourselves!
Thanks Hillary, you know me, “fun” fuels my drive 😉
Interesting thought on each cup representing personalities, now that I look at it, it looks like it would fit!
Great sistah gathering. I love the sense of fun this piece has
Thanks Dominique, it’s supposed to always be fun with the sistahs 🙂
I love your sistahs with the Fiestah-ware. Ha. So colorful with an interesting composition. Can’t wait to see your sooosheeee…LOL.
Hi Pattie thanks so much! Yes, I like to play a little bit with Karin’s photos when I feel inspired. We gots soooosheeeee 🙂
