Description

This watercolor painting by Marilyn Smith is a study of an old, vintage
blue-green Ball canning jar. I added pieces of fruit, lemons, limes, to
add interest and color along with a few bright, sunny flowers to
complete the arrangement. The jar was a piece I inherited from my Mother
some time ago and I have used it in many pieces of art.
My inspiration for this piece came from a summertime visit
to a friend's house where we sat on her porch
that was attractively decorated with blue jars filled with candles,
a flower wreath in the yellows and oranges and lime green,
beautiful brown wicker furniture and a
cheery tablecloth in all of the above colors.
It was just so pleasing to the eye and I knew right
away that this combination of items and colors needed
to become a painting.
I hope everyone visiting my portfolio will enjoying
viewing this piece and feel the happiness and sunshine
that I felt that day.
