"Sugar Shaker"
6" x 6"
Oil on canvas panel

Things of a delicate nature that have been on this earth longer than I have, intrigue me. This sugar shaker is one such item. I own several. My family used this one routinely to sprinkle sugar on cold and hot cereal.

I wasn't sure how I'd depict the raised and poorly painted flowers and leaves, but they came across much like the actual piece. The basket weave across the bottom was a delight to replicate. The biggest surprise was my choice of background. I painted the green around the base, then chose a most wonderful mixture of Indian red, burnt and raw sienna. I love this color! I plan to use it again.

Thank you for stopping by today.
