Painting at the Backus Museum

They asked me to come paint today at the museum, I brought some panels and frames, frames were to the right of me out of the picture, I had done two other paintings they are in the top corner. This lady comes up and asks me what my "craft" is. I told her I paint. She said she thought I was a framer. Now I had the paint on my knife, etc. etc. ??

Lower photo is the show from last night, its going to be up all month. One sale so far! :o)

Daily Painting 665 Rain Lilies Florida Native Plants

I tweaked this one a bit, its one I did awhile ago.
Rain Lilies or
zephyranthes. Zephyranthes means “flower of the south wind” the definition of zephyr means "mild wind" and zephuros in ancient Greek means “west wind.” Another name is fairy lilies. They are a very nice little plant, they bloom right after it rains and in my yard need little care. These plants can be planted in Florida as low ground covers, they make fine borders and need no care. The painting is 5 x 7 inches, oil
