Afternoon Delights

If you've read a few of my posts and are familiar with my paintings,

you've likely come to the conclusion that I paint things I like!

That includes, chocolate, coffee and anything sweet!

"Chair With A View"

Another of my "Daisy Chair" series. The fact is I have a chair fetish. The placement is supposed to be welcoming, and this painting is somewhat of an ode to my Uncle's farm, which is now long gone, but was a place of peace and serenity for me.

People and places may be gone, but of course, we always have our memories.

"Mexican Tiles" by Karen

This painting was inspired by my love for all things Spanish and Latin. That includes Spain, Mexico, Brazil and Puerto Rico of course, just to name a few.

The weird thing is that I've never actually even been to

any of those places yet, but their architecture is very inspiring, as is the music.

Thinking back to when this was painted, it's very likely that I was

listening to the late, great Tito Puente : )

China Cabinet

Sometimes the real life and personality in a room setting is actually

from the inanimate objects.

This painting is from my daisy chair series.

Complete with patio lanterns for your new frontier...

"We've got provisions, and lot's of beer..."

If you love the limbo, then this painting is for you,

Blues Room - by Karen Sloan

As a fan of Mid-century modern interiors, (especially chairs!), this painting

was created with that thought in mind.

Sitting down in a comfortable, yet stylish, chair from that era whilst

listening to some excellent Jazz & Blues, is what made this image come to be.

Well, admittedly I'm not a "pink" kind of person, but sometimes pink is good.

Pink can be retro and bold. I like that!

These 2 paintings were completed recently, and I was happy

with the kitschy feel they have.

Thanks for viewing.
