At it again

Here's the plate I just finished. It's only about eight inches, and it was fun to do.


This is my new "art studio". It's fun to work here because everything is right at hand and I don't have to put it all away when I'm done for the day. You can see that I've started a new project. Let's hope it goes well!

Taking a break

I took a break from rosemaling to knit this sweater. Actually, I started it four years ago and decided it was about time to get it done. It's a little too warm to wear it today, but it should be nice when the temperature dips.

Red rim


I finished the center design and painted the rim red. While I wait for the paint to dry, I'll decide what design to paint on the outside edges.

More flowers


I had fun yesterday painting more flowers. They look a little scattered now, but once I paint the stems and leaves, it should all come together.

The center flower


This is the main, center flower. I still have more flowers and leaves to paint, and then a boarder around the outside.

And now a tray




I've just started a black tray, in a symmetrical Os pattern. There will be a large round center flower and "roses" to the left and right. Then there are tulips and leaves. I'll put a design around the sides, as well.

A red plate



Here's the finished plate. I enjoy choosing flowers when I paint in the Valdres style. It's like picking flowers from the garden.
