    RW V.S. DS

    RW vs. DS… Yes!I thought it would be fun to create a comparison sheet between my Rippled Waves paints and Daniel Smith. Eventually, I’ll branch out to other brands, but for now, this is what I’ve got. I know many artists hesitate to switch brands, especially when they’re comfortable with what they’ve been using.

    Cup O Tea

    When I first started creating sets, I thought…how fun it would be to create a Cup O Tea set.  I knew exactly what I wanted…and guess what?  I did it!!!  I thought it would be best to have a painting with a beautiful tea cup,  This one is special to me as it was given to me over 39 years ago before my husband and I got married.  His grandmother gave it to me when we went to visit his grandparents in Utah.  I was not expecting it as I had no idea she had such a beautiful collection.  I had taken many photographs with this tea cup as a…
