The evolving coffee cup

I made some canvas boards and on one of the 6"x6" canvas boards I painted a coffee cup on a table and then I painted over it and again and again.

Canvas boards that I made. Most were 9"x12". I had some random sizes that I needed to make also. I made 25 of the 9x12.

And anyway the coffee cup started as

Then I painted over it

and over that one

and currently I have it as so

Not so good paintings

I say that because my perspective is not great because I have little experience in making it correctly. The bottom one was an attempt at doing a painting with a reference. It is beyond my skill level. I will get better, at least I hope I do. Anyway, the bottom painting became the below painting and it is still evolving.

Fun Paintings

Below are some fun paintings as I like to call them. I just take 140# watercolor paper and gesso it. I divide it into sections with 1" blue tape and end up making 4"x5" paintings. I do it for practice and to try things that I see done that I want to try. They're fun. The beer mugs were not originally going to be beer mugs. I had done some sketching of glasses filled with lemonade. I couldn't see it working in my mind, but I could see beer mugs quite clearly.

Flowers and a tree

I like the small painting of the flowers. I was trying something on it and I think it turned out nicely. The tree is ok and I am uncertain whether or not I love it.
