For Sophia's Sunday Sketches I did an acrylic ACEO entitled 'Bottles' (what else?) Hope you like it!
We had to shovel a fair bit of snow yesterday and it was sunny and quite cold (-12C). We've been so spoiled this winter, it seemed strange and actually it was good exercise! We had takeout fish and chips for dinner, complete with malt vinegar and tartar sauce. It's funny how fried food just disappears so quickly. It was delicious.
The big news of course is the death of Whitney Houston. I was a fan.
Have you tried the new blonde coffee at Starbucks? I liked it, as it's not as dark as their regular coffee.

beautiful colors. i like the orange stripe background against the blues of the bottles.
so sad about whitney houston.
I love fish and chips! Those bottles should have a flower in each of them. (I think) Whitney Houston was too young and talented to die. Sad.
It's difficult to draw and paint bottles! My favorite in Starbucks is the caramel frapuccino cream based. Yumm! Patsy from

Love the colors!
Love the colours in your painting! Sorry about Whitney Houston! Valerie
Love the bottles, reminds me of when we used have milkmen and milk bottles on the doorstep in the morning. How sad about Whitney..
Major shock about Whitney...only 48....way to young to die.
Take care my friend

Another lovely painting ~ enjoy the day ~namaste, carol (Share the Creative Journey)
I think your bottles are great! Love the colors! Yummy fish and chips! It's always the bad stuff for you, that tastes so good ;o) Yes, it is snowing a lot here too! I live north of Toronto. Isn't it a shock with Whitney Houston? Have a great sunday!
Ahh yes snow shoveling is good exercise :)
Really sad about Whitney :(
Cool ACEO.
your color choice is beautiful...love this one, too!
oh my gosh i didn't know she died, and you are so right, fried foods go down well and fast.
Wow..gorgeous color combo..this piece has punch..love it!! Beautiful!

The bottles are wonderful. I love the way they are grouped. Haven't had to shovel any snow this winter, and for that I am not complaining. Haven't tried the blonde coffee but it sounds intriguing! :-)
nice:) I love it Christine!
this piece feels summery to me, i think it is the light and colors you chose, lovely. exercise is a good feeling, i love that about shoveling snow.
enjoy the simplicity of colour! I love shoveling, such productive exercise - though my back sometimes does not..
Yes, I heard about Whitney this morning. WHAT a shock!!! She was one of my favorite singers too.
LOVE IT! Great job!
oooh i love this color combination! nice work here!
oh wow Christine!!!! these look great with the colours!!!! wonderful work....hope you're having an amazing Sunday!!!
Cool bottles... it does look like a summer scene rather than a snowy day!
I also love fish and chips. Your colour-block design is very reto in a way and I love its simplicity:)

malt vinegar...my tongue is tingling...might just have to find some good fish and chips myself. I have trouble throwing away wine bottles that I like the label or the color...so I should do a bottles painting too!
cheers, dana
You have a fabulous sense of composition and skill in just the right amount of detail. Fabulous!
Love the boldness of composition - great colours too! Really having fun seeing these Sunday Sketches... tempting to join!!
I like the vases. The contrasting red stripes really make them stand out.
Neat vases and wonderful composition!
I know ... I was such a huge fan of hers at one point - it's weirdly sad when famous people die.
Great colours, this one has a Continental flair to it - like old vintage Paris art. cool!
This feels like summer to me. I don't know if it is the cool bottles or the stripes, but it reminds me of picnics and sailboats and summer.
Love it! Very simplistic. Of course love blues and oranges together. Yumyum I'd kill for some fish and chips with now.
