Gloria J Zucaro's "Spring Vignette on Green Tile"

24"H x 18"W Original Pastel on Sanded Paper.$325.00 with glass and framed.  S&H Actual to your ZIP.

One of my favorite subjects...my green kitchen counter tiles!  I just love them and have used them in several of my still life paintings.  Now you may think that they would be hard to take care of in a kitchen, but they are not.  The tiles themselves were made and sealed in Ohio.  The grout is easily cleaned by a spray of bleach now and again.  I have had this counter top for 6 years and it is still stain free. 10% of the sale price will go to Breast Cancer Research for the Kimberly Conrad Club 47.

I actually finished this painting on Monday last, but then tried something new...spraying it with fixative.  I learned that it definitely darkened it, which can change the values somewhat.  I also learned that if you use charcoal as your black, it blurs out with the moisture.  So after completing all my work this week with painters, plumbers, and carpet cleaners for selling the townhouse, I finally worked on it again to fix values, add highlights and make the black cat a little less of a puddle!  So now I am posting it on The Daily Paintworks site as my entry into last Saturdays challenge which was superstitions.  This one is about never opening an umbrella in the house and black cats crossing under...things??.  I am not really superstitious, however, I am cautious about not stepping on a crack in the sidewalk and possibly breaking my mother's back!!!!  (Step on the crack, break your mother's back!).  I read that only 1 in 20 adults avoid cracks in the pavement...wow...I feel really special, LOL!
